iPhone Customer, Please be aware of compatibility issues
By Angelo
The radio itself is great, quality sound, Bluetooth works, but if you expect a clean integration with iPhone 5, you may want to wait a little longer. In my opinion, Pioneer is struggling with iPhone 5 compatibility. In fact this radio needs a caution, since you must choose between Navigation and the iPhone5 interface. The radio only has one video port so its either navigation or iPhone5 connection. I was surprised Pioneer didn't have a pass-thru port on the navigation feature or a second port on the radio. You have to search for this information in the installation manual. It should be on the Pioneer product web page in the accessory section. Even the Pioneer Premier installation dealers was surprised by this issue. When the dealer contacted Pioneer support he was informed that Pioneer was working on an interface cable to allow both accessories to work together, but I later learned this was not true. Pioneer expects the customer to use a navigation application on the iPhone 5 instead of their Navigation accessory. Normally, one could say that using an iPhone5 application for navigation integrated with Pioneer Appradio mode would work but the integration is not clean. Its just too early. Pioneer may iron out the problems over time or in the next release of the radio, but for now its simply too early.
I experienced the following in my pursuit to resolve the technical issues. Pioneer technical support seems to push the blame over to Apple, and to some degree this may be true. Apple is great at raising the bar on new technology, but without the ability to connect to other products, the iPhone 5 and possibly future iPhone's becomes a great product than only works with other Apple products.
In my opinion the two companies (Pioneer and Apple) need to work closer together before releasing any future compatible products. The Pioneer-Apple iPhone 5 interface is just too buggy right now. I give Pioneer credit for being first to market with iPhone 5 compatible car radios, but maybe they should consider adding WIFI and using the Apple Airplay interface rather than try to get some less than reliable cable connection to work. If Pioneer can get Apple's AirPlay to work on home receivers then they should be able to do so on care radio's.
Apple, you need to help your premier partners by certifying the products are utilizing the standards you've established for your products, otherwise the perception will lie with your products ability to work with other companies products. Eventually people will get tired of the issues and move on to a product that works well with others.
Don't get me wrong, I love Pioneer products. I will order one of the digital receivers with all the functions included in the radio (like Navigation) and make sure the ratings reflect a clean working integration with iPhone 5. I thought this was the radio since it was a new release and the web page indicated the X7500Bt was compatible with iPhone5. Hmmm... It certainly wasn't my experience with this radio.
I was fortunate that Amazon and their vendors allowed a return, so I can carefully research the correct radio I need for my vehicle. It was a learning experience, so I wrote this review to make sure others are aware of the issues. I prefer not to return anything I buy, but when needed it's great to know the option is available.
Best of luck to you!

Pioneer AVH-X7500BT
By Jose Villarreal
I love this headuinit, its easy to use. What i really love about this unit is the handsfree bluetooth it has intergrated. This came really useful to me so i wont have to be answering from my phone or bluetooth headset. The sound is crystal clear, like the rest of the pioneer stereos. I always had pioneer head units and still will keep buying this brand. Its a good price for being the recent unit out there. I really recommend it.

Great price and great product
By Paul Michael Farina
I have installed this in an old car, no problems whatsoever. The external mike is working great, I had another unit similar to this one, but Jensen brand.... Day and night difference, screen clear and crisp, the phone conversations are clear, no more screaming for me like the Jensen.
The parking brake bypass is a must, who is going to be that stupid to watch a movie while you drive?. Enough babysitting for obvious things, is someone is that damn to drive and text or drive and watch a movie should not be driving anyway. Great for the passenger and back seat riders to watch a movie and be quiet!.
