Interesting, I've been waiting for a few weeks for it to come out. I was going to buy a C500+ but they were announcing a new K3 version coming soon. This looks to have a MTCP MCU I wonder if it's the same as the new DSP Joying unit and if the firmwares will be interchangeable as with MTCD/E units.

I don’t know what kind of DSP is used by joying, but it's the first time I saw an 8 channel in an Android HU, and I think it will come with a totally different hardware

Actually the 8 channel thing is probably a "typo". On the official Ownice Vietnamese distributor site it's listed as a 6 channel DSP and goes for roughly 620 CAD.

Ok I take it back I just saw a post on their facebook. It seems there's a pro version with the 8 channel DSP. I hope the pro version still has the IPS screen I couldn't get more than that I'm not on facebook.

There’s someone have tried this unit? Where I can buy it? On AliExpress I’ve found only the 6 channel version...
To buy C800Pro, need separate write to Seller, that: "I whant buy C800Pro (8ch DSP)"
----------------------
P.S> Sellers do not have in free access C800 lot for sale, so I made a request separately. It turns out that this pre-order.

That's correct and if you order from the official Ownice store on Ali it's gonna cost an extra 100USD on top of the K2 High price, Shenzen Burgeon wants 50USD + the K3 High price. I would say there's no need to order the 8 channel DSP unless you are going to use more than 6 channels. If you want video out or Carplay you can request it and pay the extra and save a bit. If you are ordering a unit that comes with a large custom frame you are best request they don't assemble the HU and frame before shipping. You can easily assemble it yourself and it will save you having to wait for a replacement frame. Their packaging is useless and whoever puts the HU in the box is clueless.
