    Not a fan of how they did the buttons on the left side. This would of been the perfect opportunity to make a software replacement for these buttons that were built into the headunit. The whole hvac controls could of been designed as a app in the headunit, along with some of the other controls.

    I still prefer fixed hardware controls in some cases. Easier to hit without looking when driving. Instead of digging through an app.

    While true in most cases, they combined so many buttons into those 2 dials that hitting the wrong button is going to happen. Plus it looks like they turned the vent select dial into a single button that each time you push it changes the vents, so you have to push it like 6 times to get to the last position from the first.

    Knowing these units you probably will have both digital and button controls.
