This is getting ridiculous
>>28917276I don't know whether to laugh or cry at this trend.
Kinda hate the fact that losing that big ass screen means losing like half of the car's functionalities like having a working dashboard and aircon.
>>28917284Oh no a car part needs to be replaced. What a newly found predicament!
>>28917276The worst part is you cant even play a fucking movie on most of these
>>28917288Can I replace it myself with an aftermarket stereo? What if the screen fails mid drive? Why do I have to have no functionalities whatsoever because a screen failed?In my current car, if my radio fails, my speedometer keeps working, so what's with the downgrade?
>>28917294>Can I replace it myself with an aftermarket stereo?Yeah, probably can't fit your 8-track player too, grandpa.>>28917276I actually kinda like it. If you're going to put a giga-screen in your car, that's probably the way to do it - nothing sticking out above the dash, minimal bezels, the passenger has enough space to watch a movie or something.
>>28917294Lmao, if you drive a brand new S-Class you will never touch anything on the car while its under warranty. Also i am sure you have few spare stereos just in case the unreliable old shit fails.
>>28917276i bet after a couple months of bloatware updates the UI lags and freezes like a shitty old android phone, forcing you to pull over so you can turn the AC on
>>28917276it better be able to project the views from cameras onto that screen for seamless visibilityotherwise what's the fucking point
>>28917276In 10-20 years we'll think about these like we thought about 80s digital dashes in the 90s and 00s. In 30-40 years, we'll think about these like we think about 80s digital dashes today.
>>28917276Mate, I don't know whether you've been paying attention or not, but it's been ridiculous for the last fifty years at least.
>>28917291I think it's probably best not to distract the driver any more than they already are.Not unless self-driving cars become a practical reality.
Talking on the phone while driving is distracting, but this is somehow is fine.
>>28917309so just because its expensive, it's fine with it being a disposable product..? braindead materialist. it doesn't matter what price something is, things (tools) should be built to last. if you think otherwise I don't think you can be considered a human being in the full, qualified, sense.
>>28917276Ah, yes. Luxury. Fingerprints, dust and sun glare.Cheaper to manufacture but you are going to pay premium, even if you didn't asked for it.
>>28917288>Yeah bro a 2000 dollar infotainment system is definitely equivalent to a 5 dollar knob or button, a simple head unit, climate control unit, etcYou're a fool who is easy to make money off of.You'd rather make others question their reality instead of questioning your own delusions.I really hate bugpeople like you that shill anti-consumer practices all for the sake of those heckin gimmicks
>>28917379Should have clarified, I think it’s appropriate to be able to play videos while in Park. Otherwise what is even the point
Mercedes-Benz has been dead for a long time and I cannot be convinced otherwise
imagine running a sim on that bad boy
>>28917276WOW MASHALLAH
>still having non-digital mirrors.
>>28917276i prefer my own flavor of ridiculous
>>28917641This thing was the most interesting EV so far and Honda pulled the plug on it
>>28917276can i play porn on that big screen? it'd be funny seeing the faces of karens in their SUVs next to me at red lights when they see it
>>28917288kys you faggot
>>28917276what a piece of shit
>>28917276
>>28917570>crash your car into a telephone trying to drift>boot up assetto corsa to try it again in the game while you wait for the tow truck>fuel leak causes underside of car to catch fire and spread>you don't notice because your turtle beach headset connects to the infotainment bluetooth
>>28917641So stupid
>>28917276gotta love the big cup holders, i remember when they were a new thing back in the 80s
>>28917276Mercedes has been the front runner in this shit for a while. God knows why.
>>28918300wow this is gayer than a faggot rave
It's gonna be great when somebody wipes it with the wrong cleaning cloth and puts scratches for some extra glare all over it like a 2009 samsung phone
are they even trying
>>28917276what if you crash? does the airbag pop out of the screen, blasting you with broken shards?
>>28917276infinitely more soul than the i3's monstrosity
>>28918820No
>>28918664The whole interiors on these nu-Benzes are all very cheap gloss plastic anyway, it's almost like they've now designed it so it'll purposely look like shit by the time the car's off lease (about the time when the screen usually goes out anyway).
>>28919081Why do they keep going for shiny and piano black plastic all the time? Everyone else has been going toward matte finish for a while and that doesn't scratch up.
>>28919081Damn Mercedes going for that thrown-into-a-bag-and-forgotten PSP look.
>>28919092>thrown-into-a-bag-and-forgotten PSP looktfw kept my PSP in the felt lined case it came with and it still looks mint
>>28917284I'm sure the used the highest quality copper for their electronics.
>>28919095That's good anon. That single action has increased your PSP's value from 0 to a gorillion in today's market.
>>28918300Euros suck at high tech and practically have no tech giants. Give them some slack. They're trying.
>>28918225My 85 doesn't have any, it's actually fairly annoying sometimes
>>28917276get on my level, noob
>>28917439Making things last forever has negative consequences that you are not considering. Also screens are one of the most reliable technology so i doubt it will fail at all. Also it will be extremely easy to replace.
