LAS VEGAS, NV (11.04.25) – BLAUPUNKT announced the launch of the BAJA 700, a new 2-DIN head unit engineered to deliver a significant upgrade in processing power, display technology, and seamless smartphone integration. Aimed at the discerning 12V market, the BAJA 700 is built on the versatile Android 12 operating system, offering a robust and future-ready in-vehicle experience.
The centerpiece of the BAJA 700 is its vibrant 7-inch IPS display. With a crisp 1024×600 resolution, the IPS panel technology ensures superior color accuracy, wider viewing angles, and enhanced brightness, making it easily viewable in all lighting conditions. The responsive resistive touch panel provides reliable control for all applications.
At its core, the BAJA 700 is powered by an A53 Quad-core 1.5GHz processor, paired with 2GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage. This configuration provides the necessary bandwidth for smooth multitasking, rapid app-loading, and fluid navigation through the Android 12 interface.
Connectivity is a key focus of the new unit. The BAJA 700 features dual-band Wi-Fi (5G) for high-speed data transfer and stable streaming. For seamless smartphone integration, the unit works with Wireless Apple CarPlay and Wireless Android Auto. This allows drivers to access navigation, calls, messages, and music from their device without ever needing to plug it in. Bluetooth 4.1 and Mirror Link are also included for comprehensive connectivity options.
“The BAJA 700 is a direct response to installers and consumers who demand a powerful, open-platform head unit that doesn’t compromise on core connectivity,” said Chuck Kenney, National Sales Manager. “By integrating a true IPS panel, the Android 12 OS, and the convenience of working with wireless CarPlay and Android Auto via Zlink5, we are offering a premium solution that hits all the key technical benchmarks for a modern vehicle upgrade.”
The unit is also built for enhanced safety and audio customization. It features robust support for high-definition cameras, compatible with both 720P and 1080P AHD (Analog High Definition) reverse and auxiliary cameras. For audiophiles, the BAJA 700 includes 4.1 Channel RCA pre-amp outputs (Front Left/Right, Rear Left/Right, and Subwoofer), providing a clean signal for external amplifiers and complete system-building flexibility.
Additional features include a built-in GPS module for satellite navigation, and two rear-mounted USB ports for media playback and device charging.
