Chigee AIO-5 Play for BMW Experience? - TomRides - 08-25-2024
Hi, Folks
Anybody have any practical experience with the Chigee AIO-5 Play for BMW model?
A review or even a quick run down of Pros & Cons would be appreciated since I am not happy with the BMW Motorad Connected app.

Lots of reviews on YouTube. Have you had a look at any of them?

Yes, I've watched a number of them. Overall pretty positive. Some comments regarding small screen concern me, that's why I was looking for additional feedback.

Yes, that is one of the concerns I would have. I am sure that the Chigee screen size will grow soon, since the target demographic is probably old men who have nothing better to do with their money than farkle their bikes and who have less than eagle eyesight.
Plus there is pressure from the competition, and that is not only coming from one company.Seriously though, while the Carplay / Android Auto icons are really "tiles" (i.e. big), the issue with the smaller is accurately hitting the small icons along the edges. Sure, having jog wheel integration is a help, but at the end of the day it is still distracted riding, but I think that having larger edge icons might be less of a distraction while riding than using the jog wheel.

Currently looking for some kind of screen, this one was my first choice, still on the fence.

I'm happy with my W502B Carpuride. It does Android Auto well with my Samsung phone and Sena SRL Mesh. I rely on VOICE commands and do not really look at it that much when riding. The 7 inch W702B might be better for some. At $209 it was plug and play into the OEM Nav Prep bracket, and up and running within 10 minutes. That Chigee does more!

The Chigee also costs significantly more.
