In this video, I check out the Le Car Life Media Max 2.0 Display. A standalone CarPlay / Android Auto display with integrated 4K Dash Cam. You can buy this display for $299 direct from Le Car Life https://lecarlife.com currently the site is offline, but I thought I would still cover this product in case anyone was thinking of picking it up off ebay or from another brand seller such as this one from AliExpress for $96.10! https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_Dmu...

This is a standalone wide 10.26” IPS portable display that allows both wired and wireless CarPlay and Android Auto to any car. It passes audio out of its internal speaker, or you can choose to cast the audio wirelessly to your FM radio or wired to an AUX audio input port. And finally, there’s a 4K dash cam that’s integrated into the back of the display.

I had high hopes for the Media Max, but it sadly falls flat in many areas when it comes to actually using it for its intended purpose. The lack of stereo and quality audio connection was the deal breaker for me, the camera quality is decent and it’s a nice solution to bundle both a dash cam and CarPlay display into one portable device.

Its retail price of around $299 matches most of its competition, however with the added dash camera, the Media Max 2.0 does add some extra value to the whole package, and even more so with its included rear camera. But with its poor quality wireless performance in the audio department, I can’t entirely recommend the Media Max 2.0.

There has been a new revision of this display though, with a 3.0 version already being shown at the end of last year on its social media accounts, which shows a revised menu system and FM toggle and camera. But at the time of this recording its website is offline, so I would wait until its back up and selling before considering this display.

Hopefully I can get my hands on the 3.0 version to see if these areas have been improved
