Review of the Carlinkit TBox Plus in my Kia EV6. This easily turns your vehicle's touchscreen into a full featured Android 13 tablet with 8 gb ram and 128 gb storage. You're able to watch videos, run apps like navigation, and even play games directly on the car's screen. I can watch YouTube, Netflix, Disney Plus, Prime Video, HBO Max, etc directly on the display and there is no lagging or any issues. It also adds wireless Android Auto and Apple Carplay too, which is great. I'm also running apps like Car Scanner, ABRP, and Ohmmu directly on my Kia EV6's display. This is a new upgrade over the Tbox that I had previously, called the AI Box from One Car Stereo, and it's much less expensive at only $132 after my promo code. You get better performance for less price. I highly recommend it. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks for watching! 😃

⚠️ This is a link to the new Android 13 version which works very well and has some additional features over the Android 12 version.

  • @rileyplaxton
    Just purchased this using your code, thanks for this. Lunch in my car now will be infinitely better!
  • @wherekengo
    You must have heard my thoughts while driving. I was just thinking about AA and purchasing a box. This is just what I wanted with the right price point. Thank you for this and putting in the work for the promo code. Ordering asap.
  • @Dana-xm9mi
    Great video Jeff, yet again. Since we are taking the EV6 on a 4000 mile trip next month, this device is updated and less expensive than your first one, you finally got me to buy into something other than music in the car. 😂 Having Car Scanner and ABRP on-screen is a plus. Since I’m an iPhone guy, I wonder how long it’ll take me to figure out Android. 😢
  • Once again another great video that's resulted in me spending more money 😅 I plan to use this combined with the cars built in hotspot ($20/m unlimited data) and easy to activate using one of the programmable favorites buttons in the car!
  • @JoshBloomer
    Ordered one, thanks for the nice video. Was $155 shipped, with your code. Seems it was an even newer version too. Android 13.
  • @benhauber1979
    Jeff, if I buy one more of these gadgets for my EV6, my wife is gonna leave me. Maybe, since I don't need them anymore, if I sell the Carsifi and the Motorola MA1 first, it'll soften the blow. Great review! I appreciate all the great content you make for us. Congratulations on passing 3k subs!
  • @MrYtales27
    This is really good. Its really unfortunate that they dont have features like this built into the infotainment system, BUT thank goodness for this. Im an Android guy as well, so this goes above and beyond what I want. Thanks for this. Will be getting one
  • @sidneycooper
    Great video! Just subscribed and used your discount code for my purchase! I'm a huge Nova Launcher fan too! Right now I have a data plan on my watch but I'll see if I can move it to my T-Box... BTW - The Android 13 version, with your discount code is $188.59. That is still a great deal.
  • @willluma9170
    Subbed! Love the vids your posting with your ev6. As I got one too and looking to enhance it lol. Question though. I’m on the fence on this. Price looks good. I’m just curious about the boot up time. I noticed you can have it on apple CarPlay defaulted to start up when turning on car. How long do you think it takes compared to wired CarPlay starting up when plugging in the phone? Thanks again for the vids. Now I just need to scrounge up enough money for that stealth hitch lol.
  • @igotheals
    thanks for the great vid, deffo gonna give this a go; I recently tried an ottocast U2-X Pro and I returned it the same day, it was pretty awful. this looks like it's a large step up from that thing!
  • @Jasonluxford
    Love the video. I got one of these a couple of months back and noticed that the favorites bar is gone on yours when using Nova launcher. How did you do that?
  • @mikek6726
    Thanks for this video Jeff. Is there any difference in just using a cheap android phone instead of this box?
  • @techprocr
    Thanks for the great video review. Does it only work on the usb a port or can you connect it to the usb c port in the back? If it's only connect to usb a port, will it still stay on while I'm charging the car at night? Thanks!
  • @darinfong
    Great review! I have a 23 Ioniq 5. The USB port seems like it stays powered on all the time. Do you know if the TBox will power down on it's own after a timeout period? Otherwise, it seems like it would drain the 12V battery when the car is off. Also, I see that there is a CarlinKit Max model. Do you know the difference between the Max and Plus?
  • Hey Jeff, did you ever do the follow up video on Nova laucher showing how you changed the TBox main screen. Thanks D
  • @debokor
    Great video. One question. Can this be paired with more than one phone? Occasionally, my wife drives my Ev6, and it would be nice to not have to disconnect the tbox and plug into her phone manually.
  • @irvanc
    Hey Jeff... The discount also works with the Android 13 model as well...
  • @waxy1962
    Hi Jeff, thanks for the cool video. I purchased a Nature's Generator with code based on your review. I purchased a 2024 Ioniq 5 last month and bought a wireless AA dongle. Does this completely replace that or do they work together? Do videos work even in Drive (not that you're condoning it)? What's the drain on your phone like? Thanks!
