DMD T665 Phone + MyRoute App?
-
Hello !
As far as I know Bart De Medts tested the DMD T665 Phone with MyRoute App and I was thinking to buy one to get rid of all the Android Auto issues and just use the app at its full potential on a DMD phone.
Has anyone else tried this device before ?
These are Barts opinions regarding this device, but it would be nice to have more, if someone else has used it.

@Adrian-Avram hi Adrian
The T665 is also a very good device. The recasons why I chose the T865X is the screen. T66t is 800 nits and the T865X +1300nits. Since you also use the chiquer device witch is even less than 800 nits you’ll be ok. Unless you have room on your bike for the T865X.
Have fun -
I have the t865x. Love it! Also with MRA.

I compared both because I wanted to get the smaller one at first. But the parallel test shows me very clear: with the bigger one, now finally I can read p.e. city names on map during the ride. Also in bright sunshine! Decision for T865-X was made quick!
MyRoute-App is running well on the device.
I only wait since a long time for integration of Remote-2 controller from DMD - to not any longer need to touch the screen during ride

I just got the T665 and the way I've set it up is like this:
-set the app to Virtual Display, massively improves the smoothness/responsiveness of the app;
-from the android settings -> Display size and text, set the Display size to the middle option and the font size to the 2nd;- from the app, leave tilt correction to -2 (for 0 sky/horizon) and zoom to 1.6 (it doesn't seem to zoom anymore above that)
(the two settings above are to make the map easily readable on the smaller screen of the T665)
-increase the size of the POI and the Position indicator (this is just personal choice)
And of course, it is a smaller device, so the screen real estate is limited, especially in landscape mode with the left menu up

@Ioan-Dragulescu ...in meantime, DMD released a 7" device, which is probably the best solution

maybe, but it's a little too big for my taste. And also twice as much as the T665
I kept waiting before I got mine and hoping that there will be an upgrade to it, maybe some 6 inch tops with better hardware? But ... it didn't happen unfortunately, and with both Carpe Iter and DMD2 just releasing new devices it won't probably happen any time soon.
