Double DIN stereo upgrades

What is everyone’s favorite double DIN option?

From a little research this one looked good to me-

Has anyone used this or a similar pioneer model? How does the screen brightness / glare look in the car?

Pioneer DMH-W2770NEX

I purchased a Pioneer DMH-2660NEX from Crutchfield this summer, along with their installation kit. I am very happy with the fitment and the sound. Since I took these pictures I added a jack in the dash for the USB/Audio inputs. I installed it in the small section just above the console.

Screen brightness and glare are not an issue except for very bright sunlight. All of the radio controls are soft touch from the screen. They work fine but I would prefer if they were actual buttons. I have a Pioneer AVN-1330NEX in my other car and I prefer these buttons, however this one the screen is very difficult to see in daylight.
