Second issue I have is with one of my phones Poco X3 GT (Redmi Note 10 Pro) has a huge mic delay where the other person can't hear me for approx. 5 seconds after they answer the phone (usually they just hang up because nobody is there). This only happens with outgoing calls but it makes the "Voice Control with Android Auto" function almost useless. Yes I have updated the firmware to the latest 1.31, same issue. Sony blames the phone but it works fine on both my 2011 Ram 1500 uConnect head unit and wife's Kenwood 7706s head unit.
Third issue is that ALL outgoing calls route the audio to the phones speakerphone if dialed through AA. I have tried everything with no fix, USB debugging, upgrade and downgrade Google and AA apps, cleared caches, half a dozen different cables, factory resets and even a warranty replacement AX5600 from Crutchfield. No fix.
The fourth issue I have is that this unit doesn't support USB hubs. The problem with that is that if you have an Android phone and an iPhone you are constantly swapping cords because only one of the 2 USB inputs on the AX5600 supports AA/CarPlay.
All things considered this unit has taken me back to basically using my phone on speakerphone and the only reason I haven't replaced it with another unit is Crutchfield has no stock on anything else in the price range. I'd also have to completely rebuild my harnesses to be compatible with another brand.
Expected much much much better for the price.

Sony is the only after-market Carplay receiver with a decent interface so I've been holding out but I don't think I can't wait any more :(
Wish they did better market research. :(
