Replacing original Jensen audio-nav unit ... recommendations?

Have never liked the original Jensen VX7020A navigation-audio unit that came with our 2017 Forester MBS 2401W. Now that the touchscreen has died, I have an excuse to replace!

Any recommendations...

Thanks for this post - I think we are getting the same alert and just starting to look around for guidance.
