Alpine X803D-U - DAB+ Head Unit - CarPlay / Android Auto

The Alpine X803D-U - DAB Plus Head Unit utlises the latest media compatibility, cutting-edge navigation technology and Alpine’s audiophile sound quality to your ride.

It is fully compatible with the latest smartphones such as the iPhone 7 and the Galaxy S7 and lets you use Android Auto and Apple CarPlay on its 8-inch high-resolution touch screen.

DAB+ digital radio, USB video playback, HDMI connectivity and the latest Bluetooth technology are built-in as well.

You even have 3 options for navigation: the X803D-U features the iGo Primo NextGen navigation system with TomTom maps and 3 years free-of-charge map update.

It also includes online navigation capability to use Maps with Apple CarPlay and Google navigation with Android Auto. Both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto apps can access the Alpine navigation antenna for highest positioning accuracy.

High Resolution WVGA Touch Screen

The 8-inch high-resolution WVGA display allows full operation of the system via touch-screen technology and features the latest video enhancement technology for outstanding picture clarity, contrast and resolution. This allows navigation maps to be displayed in stunning detail, while movies or video clips become a real cinematic experience.

The user interface is very intuitive and is designed to perfectly integrate into your vehicle. You can choose from a variety of screen colours and designs to best match your taste and vehicle.

8-inch Screen with 1 DIN chassis

More and more vehicles feature a dashboard space for a 7-inch or 8-inch screen, however behind the screen there is no space to fit a full 2DIN product. The new SMART is for example one of the vehicles with such dashboard design.

Alpine designed the X803D-U to overcome this problem by putting a 1DIN chassis in the back of a 8-inch screen. With a car specific Alpine installation kit you can achieve a perfect installation and original manufacturer look.

Works with Apple CarPlay

The innovative X803D-U with Apple CarPlay compatibility brings you a smarter way to use your iPhone on the road. Apple CarPlay gives iPhone users an incredibly intuitive way to make calls, use maps, listen to music and access messages with just a word or a touch.

You can even enjoy Spotify, internet radio or podcasts while on the road for a truly connected experience. Simply connect your CarPlay enabled iPhone to the USB port of your Alpine and you are ready to go.

Works with Android Auto

Android Auto was designed with safety in mind. With a simple and intuitive interface, integrated steering wheel controls, and powerful new voice actions, it's designed to minimize distraction so you can stay focused on the road.

Android Auto automatically brings you useful information, and organizes it into simple cards that appear just when they're needed. Both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto can access the navigation antenna of the X803D-U for highest accuracy when using the navi apps.

DAB+ Digital Radio

The built-in DAB/DAB+/DMB tuner uses the most advanced digital technology to deliver radio reception in outstanding, noise-free sound quality. DAB+ also offers many other advantages over traditional FM radio: select from a much wider range of radio stations and after an initial station scan you can easily select your desired channels from an alphabetic and genre list of available stations.
