Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Delphi SA10315-11B1 XpressRC Plug and Play XM Satellite Radio with Color DisplayCustomer Review: A Great XM Radio Unit Summary: 4 Stars
This unit is great. The pics of this unit do not show the true clarity of the color screen. It is very bright, sharp and clear. When I use this unit with the home dock I can see the song titles from my bed (average sized room) I can't see the sports and stock ticker of course but hey when I'm at home I can pull up sports scores on tv, lol. The split screen view is also very good. Whenever a song comes on that I don't like or one that I've heard way too many times I can look at the display and see whats playing on other stations. And yes the songs update almost instantly. I am a new xm subscriber and this unit is the reason why. I love the song saver feature. Being able to save 10 songs that I can listen to anytime. Thats great. I wish it had more space but hey this isn't a "portable" unit....in the sense that it doesn't clip to your belt. So I'm very satisfied. Another thing that blew me away was the 60 minute buffer. Thats more than my hd tivo. It only has 30 minutes....but the thing I love most is the fact the buffer only clears when you turn the unit off (you know tivo clears when you change the channel) so if I listen to a great song and realize another fav of mine is playing on another station (using split screen) I can tune to that station.....and replay both songs again if I want to. of course you can pause too. This unit is very easy to use. I had the unit activated and hooked up within 10 minutes. And it only took like 5 minutes to set up my screen preferences and the sports ticker. Now I see people complaining about the fact that the rc only shows 4 channels at a time compared to the r which shows 6 channels. I personally would rather have the 4 channels b/c it shows more info. (song, artist etc.) compared to one line of info on the r. This is a great unit but it isn't perfect. The main thing I hate is the fact that you have to buy a extra accessory in order to use the fm modulator. Of course as we all know thats b/c of the FCC. So if you don't still have a cassette player you will have to spend some extra money to use the unit in your car. Also the songsaver feature is great but you CAN'T select which song to delete. It just deletes the oldest song once you fill all 10 slots. That was probably a music industry rule though. (just guessing) The remote is great if you have the home dock. (i don't use it in the car since the unit is mounted next to me) as it has all of the same buttons as the unit itself. Its also very nice. A glossy black remote. Now since this is a plug and play unit it does not have a battery. It requires external power. No biggie for me. Hopefully they'll release a portable kit for this unit soon (they have one for the original xpress...) Also as far as sound quality goes this unit delivers. It impressed me. Its cd quality sound so if you have a good sound system in your car (or at home) this unit won't disappoint you. Also the variety of stations on xm is astounding. Something for everyone. They even have a micheal jackson station called thriller. Plays alot of songs I haven't heard in awhile plus updated remixes of some of his claasics. Unfortunately that station is temporary and i think it ends at the end of this month. XM actually got me hooked on talk radio. I never listened to talk radio before xm.....but hey its actually good. All in all I love this unit and will be a xm subscriber for awhile. The only reason I gave it four stars is bc you can't select what to delete and b/c of the extra charge for the fm kit (its included in canada) Hope this helps!!
