I just like the look of the 10" screen over that of the 12" screen that (to me) looks a little oversized for the dash design.

Customer service was EXCELLENT answering my questions and offering self-guided installation detail, as well as trouble shooting steps.
I didn't connect any antenna, microphones, aux cables, or anything else not related to my purpose.... Didn't need the best software or processor, etc.
Just took out the OEM 8.8" screen, and wired in the new 10.25" screen - changed a couple of avin system settings - and DONE!
I went slow, took my time, and double and triple checked everything along the way.
Start to Finish / including troubleshooting the system settings that needed changed for my setup - - all in about 2-hrs.
VERY Pleased....... the larger screen - especially with the 360 degree cameras, and reversing - a total blessing for my aging eyes!
Here's the system I bought and installed:
