Link for reference only. B&M only, Autozone web guys couldn't find it when I called but it was sitting on the shelf at the local store. Appears to be their regular price, not sure why they're $100 cheaper than any other seller. Maybe even cheaper with a coupon.
Boss Audio BE10ACP Digital Multimedia Receiver with (wired) Android Auto and CarPlay, 10.1" capacitive touchscreen, rear and front camera inputs, USB charging, removable and adjustable screen, external mic, etc.
Yeah, I know, Boss audio isn't known for high quality but for $250 out the door at your local Autozone, you're getting a LOT of bang for not much buck. I looked around and the closest big name that compares feature to feature is an Alpine unit that is $999. I've had it in my car for a few days and I'm very happy with it. So much so that I bought a second one for my wife's car. When I bought the second one, I mentioned that I was trying to buy it online as there was a discount available but it shows as in store only. The guy at the store gave me a 10% discount. YMMV.
Waiting on the install kit to be delivered so I can install hers. Single DIN so if you have double din like our cars, you'll need a kit with some kind of space filler. Crutchfield said it doesn't "fit" my car as but it went in using the same single DIN kit I got from them for the JVC (No screen or carplay and the Bluetooth was going out) I replaced with this one.
Crutchfield, Amazon, etc. all have this unit for $329. Good reviews at that price. For $100 less than that I imagine the reviews would be even better.
Unit comes with 3 year warranty from Boss. Autozone also gives a 1 year in store repair/replacement warranty with this unit. Details on your receipt.

And I just wanted to say a word about those no name brand android head units out there. I know that they cram a ton of features into those headunits but I've looked into those in the past and they're typically junk (especially the ones on Amazon). I've noticed over the years that a lot of items pop up on Amazon and then disappear a few months later. And a lot of these items have a ton of "good reviews". As a matter of fact I had a few of those headunits in my cart when I was shopping around for them less than 2 years ago that are no longer available. From my research it sounds like they work for a few months then start to act up. By that point Amazon wont accept them back and there's no warranty support to speak of. I know that Boss isn't anything too great but the fact that Crutchfield carries them means that they can't be all that bad now (I've dealt with them many times in the past and they always stand behind what they sell).
Crutchfield carrying these is what made me even consider it. Being $100 cheaper is what made me buy it from Autozone. When I saw the 1 year Autozone warranty come up on the receipt, I was really happy with my choice.
The Jensen you mentioned is $20 more on Crutchfield but is $120 more than the Autozone price for the Boss with a few less features. I equate Boss and Jensen the same quality. Neither is amazing.
I don't have an issue with the dimmer but I do keep my dash lights on full brightness while driving. Maybe that's the difference?
Also, has anyone else found this headunit at this price? Curious if this was a one off thing or not a lot of stores have it. Or maybe it was some sort of price mixup (don't want the alert the reseller crowd with the other word LOL) since the other two multi media head units (the ones they have on their site) are priced slightly less on Amazon. Wondering if they even have it at my local store (that one seems to be really small and has a bunch of nothing) so I'll probably have to drive to a bigger Autozone that's around 15 miles away.

I found out about the deal from comments on the YouTube review. I stopped by my local store thinking the guy that commented got a one off or mixup but there it was. I went back a couple days later to get the second one and the counter guy said they'd have it in the next morning or I could drive to another store about 10 minutes away. I wasn't in a hurry so I picked it up next day.
That Jensen is $100 more
At this price I'll be stopping by my local autozone tomorrow.

As I've mentioned in the past my subwoofer days are long gone and WFH I'm not doing much driving so at this price it looks like a really solid option.
I asked the clerk to check to see if the other bigger locations had it in stock and what the price was, he said $229.
