Looking for a somewhat cheap apple car play compatable head unit. Would love to get one that connected wirelessly to my phone but they are all around 500$ so I will settle for cable connection.
Anyone have opininos on which of these might be the "better" choice? I know that is subjective.

I am nearly a complete noob on audio stuff. I like that the sony has a physical volume knob. I also like that the sony has a front facing USB input to plug my phone into since I have to plug it in.
I like that the alpine is a slightly larger screen, and that you can buy their nifty amp to put on the back of it and it will still fit in your dash with amp on the back. I am hesitant to get the alpine becuase it comes with a usb cable to hook to your phone but its only out the back-- how do I get that up and through my dash where I mount my phone in a holder attached to the windshield?
Thanks for your input.
