  • Our take on the Pioneer AVH-3500NEX

    The Pioneer AVH-3500NEX is a double-DIN multimedia receiver with a 6.8-inch resistive touchscreen, wired Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, Bluetooth, and a front 1/8-inch input plus rear USB, HDMI and RCA connections. It plays CDs and DVDs and handles FLAC, WAV and other files up to 24-bit/192 kHz, which most rivals in its class no longer do. A 13-band graphic equalizer, time alignment and MOS-FET amplification give it more tuning depth than the simpler mech-less units it competes with. It suits drivers with a disc collection or a wired-phone habit who want solid audio tuning over a sharper screen.

    What reviewers say

    Owners generally like the sound tuning and the disc drive, and CarPlay works reliably once connected. The common complaints are the low-resolution screen, the resistive touch response and the lack of wireless projection.

    What people mention
    • ScreenCriticisedOwners say the 800x480 display looks soft and washes out in daylight.
    • Touch responseCriticisedThe resistive panel needs a firm press and feels less responsive than capacitive rivals.
    • Sound qualityPraisedThe 13-band EQ and time alignment let owners dial in clean, balanced sound.
    • Phone connectionMixedWired CarPlay and Android Auto work well, but owners miss wireless pairing.
    • Disc playbackPraisedThe CD/DVD drive is a draw for owners with physical media.
    • Built-in powerCriticisedThe 14 W RMS per channel is modest, so many add an external amp.
