It’s nice to have it on a fixed screen of decent size rather than on a floppy mount and a 6.x" screen. The car screen doesn’t need to be a touchscreen though. My Mercedes had Carplay with a rotary dial, no touchscreen. That was when they were still being conservative with their tech, then they went the hyperscreen route.
Most Chinese cars now have one long screen along the dashboard. It’s generally split in 3 sections, one for the driver, one for controls and one for the passenger with controls but also to play media. Plus most Chinese cars have voice commands.
Unfortunately yes. I still think the rotary knob is the ultimate infotainment control interface since it’s much easier to use while driving. Still, I’ll take the large screen for navigation over my tiny one even if I have to use the touch screen. Voice control rarely works for me, I have a very thick accent.
I don’t even need that. We all literally carry a gps device with a touch screen in our pockets at all times
