huh? it's not half, and it has speed, speed limit and other items in the same area.

Car is usable, i use it to open trunk frunk and check the status the door/trunk. I'll tell you more , that type of visualisation exists in almost every single modern car.

their navigation is just the best not sure what problem are you talking, it's FSD knows better where to turn vs myself in unfamiliar area. I do have less miss exists on fsd with myself. Yesterday i 0 touch 1h 30 min drive from long island all the way to a very busy manhattan street. tons of exits, complicated connections etc.

It's not even comparable. Everything else feels like a horse carriage vs space ship.

you can swipe left to show full map if you in the navigation and open it almost in full screen. even in default mode that screen is bigger than 95% of the navigation screens of other brands. Really fake concern.

you can pin your Bluetooth app with drag-n drop , never used car link so not sure if that's an app or an icon.

glovebox is the real annoying item i can confirm is a 100% weird design choice. I still love pin in valet mode so that my items are not stolen.

Would you mind uploading a picture of this "almost full screen"?

Yeah, sure. "We removed about 40% of the screen, but don't worry, you still have a lot of screen left!"

> huh? it's not half, and it has speed, speed limit and other items in the same area.

I think it's 40%? Most of this screen is utterly useless for me. I don't care about "other items". I want more map, and next several turns in that spot.

The speed limit can stay in a nice carved-out area at the top left.

Oh wow. Being able to opening the trunk is now the pinnacle of usability. How about a glovebox?

How about making the Homelink button always visible, because GPS is not always reliable. How about making Bluetooth icon always available? Ditto for compass.

Nope. It's just copium.
