JVC launches its first CarPlay receiverJVC has officially launched its first in-car dashboard unit with support for Apple's CarPlay infotainment system. Originally announced during CES 2016, the JVC KW-V820BT features a 6.8-inch resistive touchscreen, Bluetooth connectivity, and integrations with both Spotify and Pandora.
With CarPlay support, JVC's new receiver allows you to use many of the features of your iPhone in a more friendly manner. In addition to allowing you to make phone calls and send text messages with only your voice, a number of third-party applications feature support for CarPlay so they can be used more safely while you're on the go.
The JVC KW-V820BT is currently rolling out to JVC retail partners, where it is expected to be available for $599.95.
