The Sony XAV-AX8100 is a multimedia receiver with a large 8.95-inch floating touchscreen mounted on a single-DIN chassis. The display adjusts in tilt, height and depth, so it can sit in front of the dash in vehicles that cannot take a traditional double-DIN screen. It runs Apple CarPlay and Android Auto over USB, adds Bluetooth for calls and streaming, and includes an HDMI input plus a rear camera input. Its main rivals are fixed double-DIN units with smaller screens; the Sony trades a built-in CD drive and a flush look for screen size and flexible mounting.

Owners of older and specialty vehicles praise the big screen and the flexible floating mount, which lets them add a modern display without custom dash work. The most common complaints are the wired-only CarPlay and Android Auto connection and the display sticking out from the dash.
The Sony XAV-AX8100 is a multimedia receiver with an 8.95-inch floating touchscreen. It uses a short-depth single-DIN chassis. The screen mounts in front of the dash, and its tilt, height and depth are adjustable. This gives a tablet-style display without custom fabrication.
Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connect by USB for navigation, messages, music, calls and voice control. Bluetooth supports hands-free calling and audio streaming. An HDMI input accepts external video sources and smart devices, and a rear camera input supports a backup camera (camera sold separately).
For sound, it has a 10-band EQ with Sony DSP audio tuning and high-voltage pre-outs for amplifiers. The unit starts up almost instantly. Vehicle-specific installation parts are sold separately unless stated as included.
