hi..... help ;)

 

I currently have an iphone4s and an AppRadio1 and have enjoyed both for over 2 years now.

 

the battery on my iphone4s is bugging me and although i have changed it it is still bad so looking at upgrading.

 

If i go iphone5s then i will need to change the HU.

 

I have read lots of issues with the 5s and the appradio so that bugs me (current set up is fab)

 

But looking at the 5600 i just find it busy on the screen and messy!! i like the simplicity of the appradio

 

then add into the mix the possible update of the 5600 to take carplay then my head is well and truly fried

 

thoughts??

 

(or should i just buy another new battery for my 4s?? )

I'd wait until CarPlay be a reality on any third party head unit. Until then, I will upgrade my phone if necessary, but not any HU in my car until it works...
