Carpuride W702 5000 mile review on a BMW R1300GS

Great video.

I contacted the support about the toggle. Indeed they had removed the day night toggle with the latest update. And I also share your feelings about using it at night. It is WAY to bright for my taste. To a point where it really is distracting.

I really hope this gets addressed.

Good stuff!
And I assume the new GS did equally well!

I think the day/night switch is controlled by your phone now right? In my car it’s connected to the lights being on or off, but that does not work here with your phone in your pocket in a tunnel

No cameras on this version I see and clearly no auto brightness

Ay I ask why you aren't using the BMW mount?

Summary in 5 points, if you like it short:

The Carpuride W702 has proven durable and reliable over 5,000 miles, withstanding various weather conditions including torrential rain, dust clouds, and bright sunshine without failure.

It operates smoothly with CarPlay for navigation, using apps like Google Maps and MyRoute, and its screen remains clear even in bright sunlight, though it lacks an effective night mode.

A significant issue encountered was the screen intermittently switching back to the home screen during navigation, which was resolved with a software update provided by Carpuride.

The device has no significant battery drain when using wireless CarPlay, and audio routing issues were resolved with an update that allowed seamless connection to a headset.

Comparatively, the Carpuride W702 offers better screen quality and brightness than similar devices like the AutoCast C5, though improvements could be made to reduce the bezel size for a more streamlined appearance.
