Big screen with updated flexibility
The XAV-AX8500 digital multimedia receiver features a 25.7 cm (10.1 inch) capacitive HD touchscreen with an updated display joint featuring a new tilt and swivel mechanism. Together with both wireless and wired connectivity to your smartphone and various devices, and sound customisation, it offers a safe and enjoyable driving experience.

Oversized high-definition display
An optically gapless 25.7 cm (10.1 inch) high-definition LCD panel offers enhanced picture quality, and its clean interface enables safer and easier operation than ever.

Easily adjustable tilt and swivel
The newly designed tilt and swivel mechanism lets you manually adjust the oversized high-definition display's viewing angles. The display joint's screw-less structure gives you a range of ±15 degrees, both horizontally and vertically, with no tools required – even after installation.

Fully wireless smartphone connectivity
Thanks to a Wi-Fi® connection to your smartphone, together with the supplied GPS antenna, you can use voice control to navigate, communicate and play music on the road even with your device in your pocket.

Sound customization
The built-in DSP offers sound processing and time alignment—down to a remarkable 1 cm for each of the five addressable channels (four speakers and subwoofer via pre-out). A 14-band EQ lets you adjust the overall sound to your music or taste, and with the three-zone crossover, you can arrange the perfect match of front, rear and subwoofers.

HDMI Input
HDMI connectivity allows you to hook up an external audio and visual source device or a compatible smartphone, so you can view your favorite content when your car is parked.

High-definition capacitive touchscreen
A large floating 25.7 cm (10.1 inch) capacitive touchscreen with 1280 x 720-pixel high resolution offers crisp detail, higher brightness and contrast for superior in-car experience.

Gapless Anti-glare Display
Unlike a conventional display, the LCD is bonded directly to the protective glass touch layer with a transparent adhesive. The result is an extremely precise touch experience along with enhanced contrast and visual performance. The internal anti-glare filter hugely improves touchscreen visibility by reducing sunlight reflections, ensuring easier and safer driving.

Connected to your car
iDatalink® Maestro® compatibility connects the XAV-AX8500 to your vehicle's onboard computer, turning it into a customized display for factory-equipped functions and features. With an iDatalink® Maestro® RR by Automotive Data Solutions you can interface with vehicle infotainment and information—for performance, safety and comfort—directly on the 10.1 inch touchscreen.

Customizable viewing angle for every journey
The display joint allows you to manually tilt and swivel the display – both at ±15 degrees – to suit your personal preference. This range of movement allows you to not only alter the angle according to your preferred seating position, but also to avoid things like reflection of the direct sunlight, or to share the navigation screen with your passengers.

How it works
The screw-less tilt and swivel mechanism is designed to be easily adjusted without tools yet remain static and stable even under harsh vehicle vibration.
