Apple implanted car with Apple's separate interface model inventory

Do not know when to start, Apple's brand has become a key word in many tidal populations, iphone, ipod, ipad, nano, etc. have become a must-have fashionable weapon. "If you don't have iPHONE, then you There is really no IPHONE." This is a sentence in the iPHONE4 ad, I believe all iPHONE owners will agree. As a car-loving person, apply iPHONE's idea: "If you don't have a car, then you really don't have a car." I believe all owners can understand the meaning of this sentence. Most of Apple's products and cars have innate commonalities: mobility and convenience.

For the "Apple" fans, what is the most urgent need for in-car configuration? Certainly it is the interface of the apple device, but after the reporter searches on the market a few times, discover that the car with the apple alone interface is very few at present, mostly concentrate in the field of luxury car. However, some peripheral car configurations and software around Apple products have emerged endlessly. Both consumers and manufacturers have made big fuss about Apple's products. When cars meet Apple, wonderful things happen.

A most intimate contact - Apple's dedicated interface

The so-called Apple-specific interface is a configuration that can be controlled by an in-vehicle stereo console after connection. This is not possible with many models equipped with only USB and AUX interfaces. This is a seamless access through this interface. The vehicle can be charged for Apple's device and the operation of the sound is done on the vehicle's mainframe.

If the CD host panel on the car or other parts of the car has an ipod logo, you can use most of Apple's electronic products to connect and control the device through the center console audio control panel or the audio control keys on the steering wheel. At present, most Apple interfaces can only control the audio of Apple devices. Among the luxury cars, most models of Audi, BMW and Mercedes-Benz support iPOD and iPHONE perfectly, but generally need to purchase connection data lines separately. The price of this line is up to several hundred dollars. Among the models with less than RMB 250,000, there are only a few Apple models with separate interfaces. There are only a few models and they are concentrated on high-end models. The following we recommend are these models. It should be reminded that some of them have iPOD interfaces to iPHONE4. The support is not very good, we must first connect their Apple devices through the data line and the vehicle, then the system will automatically create a folder called "My Media" in our device, and then we have to transfer music files to This folder can be played through car audio. It is not very convenient to use and it is not plug-and-play. And with advanced devices such as iPHONE or ITOUCH, in-vehicle systems often cannot create folders, and only relatively simple Shuffle and Nano can be used normally. However, this is much better than those models that do not provide IPOD interfaces at all. Now that Apple's products are hot in the world, auto companies are willing to put themselves and Apple on a point, I believe there will be more models equipped with Apple's dedicated interface in the future.

How to play the solution without Apple interface:

Solution two:

Solution 3:

"Fruit powder" may feel that the game of merging iPhones, iPads and other Apple products with cars is very costly, because it is necessary to buy a new car for this purpose. In fact, there are relatively simple, low-cost games that allow Apple products to be used in cars. How to make a car that didn't originally have an IPOD interface to be associated with our iPHONE4? In the face of this problem, there are currently three most convenient and cost-effective solutions.

Installation of one machine to install a car integrated machine bar, currently many DVD navigation one machine comes with a variety of current mainstream external audio interface, which includes the iPOD interface, in fact, a lot of one machine even comes directly with a iPOD Data line. We only need to connect the iPHONE4 and Cascade data cables to operate the music directly on the touch screen. It is truly plug-and-play and perfectly matched. The price of these all-in-one machines can be as low as RMB 2,000 or less. Brands like Cascade, Feige, Ouhua, and Junda are worth recommending.

Modified car audio Some models can not be installed because of space problems DVD navigation one machine, or have higher requirements for the sound quality, you can replace the original car audio out, for a support iPOD input sound, but need to buy a separate data line, the price In 300 yuan up and down. Suggest that if you choose this program, it is better to replace the brand name head with better quality, not only to connect iPHONE4, but more importantly, it can bring you more wonderful sound quality.

Many car audio transmitters don't want to make any changes to their cars. It doesn't matter. We also have a car-free solution that can connect your iPHONE4 to your car. That is the iPOD car audio transmission system. This stuff is sold in the Apple Store. The price is usually less than 600 yuan. It is usually in the form of a stand, with an iPHONE4 plugged in and a cigarette lighter. The advantage is simple and convenient, the disadvantage is that it can only send the music in iPHONE4 through the FM signal, and then receive the broadcast through the car radio, so you can only get the sound quality of the radio, the effect is far better than those directly transmitted through the data line . However, this audio transmitter can be used as a car phone holder and charger, and the visual effect is also very good. There is also a stand that can only be charged and cannot play music. The appearance is similar to that of an audio launch stand, but the price is much cheaper. Generally, it is less than 300 yuan.
