In contrast, the Tesla has a field on the main screen. Tap that, type the song or artist, off you go. EDIT: In fairness, the Tesla's iphone integration is essentially non-existent, so if you want to listen to a song on your phone you basically have to use the phone to get to it. But then again, you mostly don't need to do that because the car has its own streaming. |

CarPlay can be a big pain in the ass at times in my experience but I sure wish my S4 had it.

The screen has like 7 (maybe more or less) tiles on the main screen (radio, nav, phone, etc.) when you want to open up the radio station your listening to and when you want the weather you just touch the tile it is displayed on where with the idrive you need to click on the tile and which then opens up the menu. In the radios case when you click the tile it brings you to the radio menu (presets, etc) in the weather’s case when you click the tile with idrive it opens connect drive(or whatever it’s called). Then you need to click again to the menu you want ... |

I guess when you have built-in streaming media with keyword search you end up using it a lot. The system's interface and capabilties start to influence the types of things we do with it. Since scrolling through lists was easy with idrive, that's what I did. With tesla, keyword search is easy so that's what you do. With RR, nothing is easy so i rant about carplay...lol |
