Yes I had seen Caska System and found to be very bad. So I have imported one directly from China and got it installed. it has costed me 18K but is very good. the GPS is excellent. Resolution is 1024X800 with 1GHz processor. I installed myself and showed to Honda people and they agree this is much superior system than Caska. So guys there are many systems in the market to choose. This is android 4.4 and it is like mini PC in my car. One can do full surfing, emailing, play games etc etc.

The Problem here is that you dont have local service support for any issues you face .
you will have to courier it back & then leave it in hands of the seller.

Else alll looks good, i have already spent 65K on Casaka & repenting[frustration]

Best of luck for you and thanks for sharing.

Selfhave updated the OEM with Blaupunkt Lag Vegas 530 in my Mobilio and theexperience is great. This was part of the upgrade from the dealer. The same will be possible with Amaze too. Spent about 26k for the same.

Pankaj well whichever you buy ensure it is latest android 4.4 and resolution of 1024X800 or above. You will have problem of fitment because the one I purchased came with three outer frame one of which fits well. Other do not supply that. Rest all goods are Made in China and are working great. All the best.

Thanks Nanda.

My dealer (Automatrix)has now given me an option as they are not able to fix my Caska system.

They said they can give me different brand system -My AVN TAB

I saw one of the system , it windows & not Android but display & all were good.

Comparison with my existing Caska System

1: No 5.1 Audio system
2: Reverse cam/sensor can be attached but no reverse assistance system
3: Rich display & plays all format (1024)
4:Touch is good.
5:Android phone mirroring (2 way)
6: No internet connection on device (Caska had usb dongle option), but due to phone mirroring no issues.
7: Supports upto 64 GB compared to 8 GB of Caska
8: Supports Dual USB



But iam really concerned with the price tag as i feel these system are cheaper then what i paid to Caska & doubt on Audio sound quality as it lacks 5.1 (not tested audio,only system display)


so guys need your reviews & suggestions as iam helpless

Well I went through the description and it does not mentions which OS it is running. Let me warm you stay away from Windows System as that OS has it's own problem. Plus as time passes windows keep putting **** and makes the system slow to limp. Updates are not regular.
I strongly suggest go for android system. All latest SW are easily available and very reasonable. You have all the features in Android systems. Rest final call is yours as you have good experience with CASKA. All the best to you.

Hi Nanda,

Thanks for your advice but as i said i don't have any options left .
iam very well aware about Windows system issues + Caska is also an windows OS.
Dealer said he doesn't deal with any Android systems & only this system is the option or i have to go to consumer court for claims & case .
Its 15 months now iam fighting with these guys , dont know what to do [cry]

so everyone please provide your suggestions

Hi! Pankaj,
Fully knowing the problems with windows system it is surprising that you still want to bun your fingers with another ? That is just for the sak if warranty. Today every electronics is made in China. Now tell me how many of your electronic equipment's have failed. What warranty are we talking in India. Sellers are just dalals who make middle man money. They will keep the item for the period of warranty and then give some excuse.
Anyway finally is your decision. Bet on a horse which can run.

Well Said Mr Nanda.

But do i have options ? he said the earlier day that if i refuse he will return my old system as it cannot be repaired .[frustration]

so looks like consumer forum is the only option !!!

Anyone in this forum know the procedure for filing consumer case ? Please help me.[cry]

Pankaj fpr such matters consumer court cannot help you. You have to first write three notices to the vendor sent by registered AD. So you must have the acknowledgements. You must have all bills and performa invoice showing the vendor TAX numbers. Then you can go and file case. To know just google About Consumer Court rules in India and you will have all the information. But be ready to spend some money initially and keep time to attend the hearings. Good luck and best of luck.
