E90 325i; what touch screen display?
I've looked into the Dynavin but, I can't find any in US or on eBay. The N6 looks top of the line, but a little over my budget what touch screen head unit do you guys recommend? Thank you in advance!

Pioneer avic. Mines an older model but still works amazing. Being able to custom colour match the button LEDs is a nice touch.

I am actually computer savy, but it is hard to pick one because there are so many unbranded electronic devices out there in a lot of them come with their own self made operating system so I'm trying to go with one with android on it probably wouldn't that be a safe bet anymore help would be really appreciated I can normally narrow it down myself but a lot of these are just unbranded electronics that spout all the specifications you're looking for but is probably a piece of shit. Like they'll say hi resolution but it will actually be low and use day terms I don't know what to go with please advise thank you!!!

You cant find dynavin in the US?! Im the US distributor for them and Im all over this forum....and google....and bimmerforums.....and bimmerfest....
http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1016187 Do you have signatures turned off? If not, just click my sig below.... As far as the various random Chinese android based units.....You are correct to be wary. The problem with buying something based on a bunch of specs is...specs say nothing about if the thing actually WORKS! And thats where most of those come up short....they dont really work for a lot of basic functions. If you dig through the Dynavin thread I linked to above (and others on this forum) you will see a lot of people who went with a cheap knock off units the first time around and ended up frustrated and out hundreds of dollars, in the end they got a dynavin and were happy but could have saved a bunch of money, time, and aggravation by just going that way in the first place. Dont take my word for it, read the threads.....and while you are at it check out the mobile audio threads on E46fanatics.com......older cars but a lot of the same issues, same manufacturers, etc.....but things have played out there a lot further than they have here....

we ARE the distributor in the US: http://www.jandtdistributing.com/......just go there and click on the E90. Not sure where you have been looking....
Again, the link is in my signature....as is the discount coupon code, links, etc... Im assuming you must have signatures turned off in your control panel. I was trying to avoid bashing any other companies by name but since you brought it up.... eonon is the "other" unit I was primarily referring to in my post above....others on this site have been down that road and A LOT of the E46 guys have gone down that road, a few are satisfied, most are not. Dont take my word on it, go over there and read through a thread or two and see how things ended up. We sell quite a few Dynavin units to people who went cheap the first time around and got screwed.

A) my unit is an older pioneer avic x920-bt. Newer units would have many more features, including appradio and now CarPlay and android auto.
B) pioneer unit is standard double din size, and any other double din unit can fit when using the right bezel and harness C) if you truly want something that looks super close to OEM, your main options are dynavin, eonon, and a few other cheap brands D) as mentioned, dynavin is the only unit that truly offers OEM look and integration, while still providing high quality output, user interface, and quality You can see my signature for links to my posts, and get an idea of how a standard double din would look in an e90. Good luck!
