Overview
This is a 9 inch portable touchscreen that adds wireless CarPlay, Android mirroring and GPS navigation to a car without replacing the factory stereo, powered through the cigarette lighter.
Rather than installing into the dash, the screen mounts on top of it and pulls audio through one of four outputs, Bluetooth, AUX, FM or its own built-in speakers, which keeps the factory radio in place. Android connection requires either a separate app with several permissions granted or Android Auto with USB debugging enabled, which is more setup than a built-in wireless Android Auto system typically needs.
- 9 inch HD portable touchscreen
- Wireless Apple CarPlay, plus Android mirroring options
- Four audio outputs: Bluetooth, AUX, FM, built-in speakers
- Cigarette lighter power, no dash disassembly
Who it's for
Fits owners of older vehicles without any factory infotainment screen who want CarPlay or Android mirroring without a dash installation. Less suited to anyone wanting a permanently mounted, flush-fit screen.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Wireless CarPlay without removing the factory radio
- Four audio output options for different car setups
- Plug-and-play power via the cigarette lighter, no dash removal
- Android connection setup is more involved than CarPlay
- Screen sits on the dash rather than integrating into it
- Navigation depends on the phone's own connection and apps
Performance notes
Audio can be routed to the car's existing system over Bluetooth, AUX or FM in addition to the screen's own speakers, which is meant to work around cars that lack an AUX input. GPS navigation depends on the connected phone's data and apps such as Google Maps or Waze rather than any onboard mapping.

Questions about the bokilino digital media receivers
Common buyer questions answered straight from the product spec data - no fluff, no "it depends".
Do I need to remove my factory radio to install this?
No, it plugs in via the cigarette lighter and sits on top of the dash without disassembly.
Does Android Auto work the same as CarPlay on this screen?
Not quite; Android connection uses either a dedicated app with granted permissions or Android Auto with USB debugging enabled, which takes more setup than CarPlay.
How does audio reach my car's speakers?
Through Bluetooth, AUX, FM or the screen's own built-in speakers, whichever fits your car.
