Carpuride W502 5" for Motorcycle Apple Carplay/Android Auto

I wasn’t sure about this at first because I followed the connection instructions and it’s wrong. If you pair your helmet speakers to your phone via Bluetooth do NOT use the Bluetooth audio output settings on the device, use the apple/android output or the unit will not work correctly. It took some YouTube research to figure this out and I almost returned the unit because of this issue. Once setup correctly this thing is ultra cool, works perfectly giving you great touchscreen control that works well AND it looks great on your dashboard!

The title speaks for itself I put this on a e-bike and it works flawlessly, the fact that all my apps are right at my fingertips and I don't have to mess around with with my phone is so convenient while riding. If you have a e-bike this is a must have.

Five star for the screen in the functionality of what it to do for you. This is a great upgrade from just an iPhone using it for navigation. Now you can see the screen much easier when does not go black under full sun. That's the good. Why gets a four star and not a five the handle control unit really does not make any sense. It shows buttons that don't correspond to what you would think that correspond to and the big take away from it. There's no on and off switch. They claimed to have an on and off switch and some users have said it'll turn the screen on and off however, on mine it does not doesn't matter if you press or hold it does nothing. I'm gonna have to hardwire in the positive lead to a different accessory line instead of using the battery. Would I buy it again? Probably not I'd probably invest a little bit more and get something a little bit better but for the price point and you're new to use in a remote screen and you have low expectations. This is the one you want.

I had Carpuride on my Roadtrek since 2 years and it worked well. I decided to give a try for motorcycle carplay. I used it on a bright day and screen brightness was very good. It works with supplied USB cable connected to my bikes special usb adapter. It needs to be 12V and > 1.5 amps. Normal usb adapters normally gives 5V and this unit will not work. Update: The unit gone bad after two days, together with supplied, USB wire when I used with 12v usb supply. Manufacturer was very kind to send me another unit and now it works fine with hard wire, from the battery. Normally, USB wire works inly with 12V supplying USB, but does not turn the screen in when connected to 5V USB. I did nit understand why, and am afraid to give it another try, with USB. Hope manufacturer may come with better power supply details. Yesterday, April 16, 2024, I received BMW adapter and installed. It just works how it is supposed to be. I tired several ways of connection to my iPhone (14 Max Pro), and helmet (Sena 50C), but was not able to use “Siri” with voice command (“hey Siri” or just “Siri”). Finally, I connected my phone>Carpuride and my phone>Helmet. In this case, it made “Siri” usable when I click and hold the six dots menu at left bottom corner of the screen. It kicks Siri in.

After completing my 2,900-mile motorcycle trip, I’ve completely changed my opinion of the Carpuride W702. While my initial impressions were positive during installation and short-term testing, real-world performance on a long-distance ride exposed major flaws that I can’t overlook. The biggest issue was reliability with my Apple iPhone 15. The unit frequently froze, forcing me to power it off and back on multiple times during the trip. At other times, it struggled to reconnect to my phone, which became frustrating when I needed navigation the most. What disappointed me most was how dependent the system was on cell service. Even though apps like Google Maps, Waze, and REVER were still functioning on my phone, the CarPlay unit became essentially useless whenever cell signal dropped. That defeats the purpose of having a dedicated motorcycle navigation screen—especially when riding through mountainous areas where service comes and goes. Since this unit connects through Bluetooth, I expected it to mirror and operate apps from my phone regardless of signal strength. Instead, it proved unreliable in exactly the kind of remote touring situations where riders need it most. To be fair, the hardware itself is solid: the screen is bright, the size works well on a sport bike, and installation was straightforward. But hardware doesn’t make up for software and connectivity shortcomings. If your riding is mostly around town or in areas with strong coverage, this may work fine. But for serious touring—especially in mountainous or rural regions—I would not recommend this unit. Unfortunately, I’m beyond the 30-day return window, or I would send it back. My original review was based on first impressions. After real-world use, I can no longer recommend the Carpuride W702 for long-distance riders who depend on consistent navigation and connectivity.

I finally decided to upgrade my bike with the Carpuride W702, and I'm so glad I did. The 7-inch touchscreen is bright and clear, even on sunny days, and it’s responsive enough to use with my riding gloves on. Connecting my phone for wireless CarPlay was super easy—it pairs automatically every time I turn the bike on. I really like the dual Bluetooth feature, which lets me listen to music and hear navigation directions through my helmet headset while the phone stays safely in my pocket. The waterproof (IP67) build gives me peace of mind when I get caught in the rain. Installation was straightforward, and the mount feels solid. Highly recommended for any rider who wants modern navigation without buying a new bike!

I wanted a way to add a gps that would work with my Ryker’s Bluetooth stereo so I could hear the directions and still listen to my music. A lot of units connect to a Bluetooth helmet but I didn’t find anything about connecting to a stereo system but I thought I’d try it and see. This unit lets me use CarPlay just like I do in my car. It took about 3 minutes to get it to pair with my phone. Then I paired the unit with my bike’s Bluetooth stereo which took a few minutes. Now it takes less than a minute to get it up and running. It’s never lost connectivity, even when way out in the middle of nowhere. The stereo plays a lot louder through this unit- a huge plus. Best accessory I’ve gotten for the bike yet. Now I can ride to places I haven’t been before and not worry about getting lost AND I can enjoy my music.

Incredible and big screen, ease of use and great brigh

Problemas de CONECTIVIDAD resuelto. Resulta que se me desconectava constantemente el carpuride de mi celular y el problema no era del aparato, sino del celular. Mi celular se desconectava del WiFi del carpuride para buscar otra red con acceso a Internet. La solución fue salir de la casa a una distancia lejos de la red WiFi doméstica, desactivar mi WiFi de celular, volver a activar el WiFi y conectarme nuevamente al carpuride, asunto arreglado. No se si pase igual con otros celulares pero con el mío fue la solución.

Works well! The camera is a must if you ride a motorcycle. It's great having front and back cameras. and the ability to take snapshots is great

Muy fácil de instalar, lo puedes hacer sin necesidad de ningún Taller. Muy intuitivo, inmediatamente se conecta con tu teléfono, la pantalla muy brillante, muy rápida la conexión entre este CarPlay y tu teléfono. Me gusta que es un sistema espejo, no es un GPS, simplemente replica lo que tu teléfono tiene así que recibes mensajes, ves tu música, puede ser llamadas, etc. si tienes iPhone es compatible con Siri. Muy recomendable y muy buen precio

Se la compré a mi Kawasaki KLR 650 y funciona bien. Me sorprendió la pantalla, se mueve bien incluso con guantes para la moto. Le pongo 4 estrellas ya que no me vino el conector usb y en varios comentarios dicen que sí viene incluido. En mi caso no, y lo tuve que conectar a la batería de la moto.

Entendi que lo ideal es traer el celular cerca o contigo para en caso de caida o derrape puedas acceder a el si la moto quedo retirada, este complemento lo cumple y ayuda para eso, en sus funciones puedo ver los mapas ya sea waze o google maps, tengo en la misma pantalla el control de spotify, ojo no del volumen solo de pausar y cambiar canciones y un acceso rapido a notificaciones de whatsapp como un android auto. Tal vez mi unico pero es que no tiene una minibateria para mantenerse encendido, prendo la moto y arranca de nuevo y otro pero es que se adueña de la salida de sonido, si o si con lo que escuches tiene que enlazarse al carpuride y a veces pierde el contacto.
