The Best Car Stereo with Backup Camera

Our Top 5 Picks

A car stereo and a backup camera are two great upgrades for any vehicle. So why not kill two birds with one stone by buying a car stereo and backup camera package? You get all the perks of a high-quality sound system and the additional security of having a camera (or two) installed on your vehicle. There are tons of car stereos that come with an aftermarket backup camera, but it’s in your best interest to invest in the best. With that in mind, here are our top five car stereo with backup camera picks.

Boss BV850ACP Backup Camera and Bluetooth Car Stereo Receiver

The Boss BV850ACP is both a versatile receiver and backup camera. Available in both Apple and Android versions, the Boss provides a 6.75” touchscreen digital display and two USB ports. What we really like about the Boss is that it encourages drivers to be more hands-free. The voice control is perfect for someone who uses Google Assistant or Siri on a regular basis, allowing you to keep your hands on the wheel where they belong. The Boss package comes with an ELPC40B rear view camera which can mount to your license plate holder.

Alpine iLX-W650

Like many receivers on the market, the Alpine iLX-W650 gives drivers access to Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. What makes the Alpine distinct from its competition is that the chassis is extremely shallow at 2-13/16” deep, which makes for an easier install. It also boosts a 7” capacitive touchscreen, which means you can operate it like you would a tablet. Icons appear nice and big for easy operation, and the voice command features make for less distracted driving. The Alpine comes with two camera inputs so that you can have views on both ends of your vehicle.

Pioneer DMH-1500NEX Digital Multimedia Video Receiver

The Pioneer brand has been making car stereos sound great for decades, so you know you can trust them when it comes to putting out a premium receiver. The Pioneer DMH-1500NEX is Android and Apple-compatible, and comes with two camera inputs so you can have eyes on the front and rear of your car. The NEX in-dash receiver allows you to completely customize your listening experience with a 13-band graphic equalizer, Auto EQ, and Time Alignment. And you count on a hands-free experience with the Pioneer. The external microphone provides the ultimate clarity when taking calls.

Kenwood Excelon DDX396

If you love what Kenwood is putting out in terms of car audio, then you’re going to love the Kenwood Excelon DDX396. It’s got fantastic compatibility, allowing you to view engine data and diagnostics for a wide array of vehicles. The Kenwood also offers several options in regards to aesthetic with customizable display and lighting, which is perfect for those that like to match their interior lighting with their tech. Compatible with both Apple and Android phones, this receiver falls in the line with the level of quality we’ve come to expect from Kenwood. The backup camera provides a nice clean image and those handy parking guide lines we’ve come to know and love.

JVC KW-M560BT

It wouldn’t be a best-of list unless JVC appeared on it. The JVC KW-M560BT provides Apple and Android connectivity, just like its competitors. This receiver offers great icon layout on its 6.75” display, and gives you all the features you’d come to expect from a top-of-the-line receiver, including hands-free calling, Bluetooth connectivity, 13-band equalizer, USB port, and it’s compatible with SiriusXM satellite radio. And, of course, no package would be complete without the backup camera.
