Thumbs up Comparison Between Eonon G1301 and Non-Brand unit

Why Eonon can get your money’s worth? There’re thousands of car DVD players in the market, some of them are without brand and very similar to each other. We can hardly discover their differences if only based on the beautiful words and photos. But we would like to do this for you, since Eonon is so confident and proud of our decent products, through this detailed comparison, you can easily find real truth behind. Hope it really helps you to make wise choice.

1. Appearance
Looking from a distance, we can see that Eonon is better in designing the buttons and UI. They’re both standard 1 Din units with flip out 7 inch screen. There is no notable difference.



2. Package:
Package during delivery process is very important.


Eonon:
D1303 is well packed with thick customized foam. What’s more, there is a special white box to pack the accessories. It makes the whole package to be cleaner and nicer. At the same time, help avoid the possible crash between main unit and accessories.

Non-Brand unit:
There is no special white box for accessories, they are packing together which will lead to scratch.

Let’s take a further look for the thickness of the color box:



The thickness of Eonon color box is 2.24mm. While the non brand one is just 1.21mm which will easily get distorted.

3. Operation Panel
- Buttons
Eonon:
From the product design period, we started to consider how to make a prefect combine with both appearance and operation convenience.



Eonon:
We use high accuracy mould, which can make every gap to be very accurate and clean.The quantity of buttons is decent.
Also the detachable front panel can ensure the safety of your unit very well.

Non-Brand unit:
There are too many buttons positioned at random in the panel. And the improper button size will largely affect the tactile sense of users.

-LCD Screen




Eonon:
G1301 has 7” digital touch screen, and with popular 3D User Interface which will surely bring more fun and visual enjoyment.

Non-brand unit:
There’re simply some words listed there without any artistic design, not even say 3D effect.

All of the above analysis is for the external part. Let’s go ahead to discover the internal assembly technology.

4. Assembly technology
Step 1: Detach the bottom cover of the unit.



Eonon:
You will find a very clean and professional organized internal structure in Eonon unit.

Non-brand unit:
You can see some wires which we call flywire across the board. It is a makeup method for the mistakes on the circuitry. It means the unit is lacking of appropriate design in advance. The flywire increase the possibility of breakdown.

Step 2: Lets take a close look at the main board design:



Eonon:
The weld zone is kept in good order, and the welding spots of G1301 is quite clean and professional.

Non-brand unit:
Bad welding skill, isnt it?

The arranging wires are not stuck into the board completely. We dont know what will happen to the unit after shaking a while in your ride.

Step 3: Check the Chips



Eonon:
The PCB(Printed Circuit Board )is very clean, and chips on it look quite clear.

Non-brand unit:
On the surface of the PCB and components, it’s very dirty. Normally there should be a board-washing process after welding during production. But it seems that this product has skipped this necessary step to save the cost. Without this step, will surely affect the operation of the inside circuitry.

5. Electronic component
-TV tuner:



Eonon:
G1301 uses highly integrated analog TV TUNER SJY-6A.
Operating Temperature Range :-40 to 85℃

Non-brand unit:
It uses half integrated, half discrete analog signal TV tuner.
Operating Temperature Range:-20 to 75℃
Apparently Eonon TV tuner is much better than non-brand’s according to the operating temperature range. Although it’s more expensive, Eonon still want to give our customers better using experience.

-Optical head


Eonon:
Our DVD uses Sharp HPD-61 professional optical head to read disks.
Operating Temperature Range:-40 to 85℃

Non-brand unit:
It uses unknown 1200W optical head.
Operating Temperature Range:-10 to 70℃

So now you see the big distinction. You can’t enjoy your in car entertainment in both too hot to too cold weather. Don’t you feel pity? So it’s necessary to take your local weather condition into account.

Never judge the car DVD player only by their appearance or the pricing tag. If the article will do good and help you to make a wiser decision with car audio unit. Then it will be our pleasure.
