And wired CarPlay works for me. Wireless would be nice but it’s not a necessity for me, especially given that that dongle would be useless to me if I do change cars here soon anyway.
I’ve looked around at the wireless CarPlay adapters, the consensus seems to be that to get one without any significant latency and operates as close to native wireless CarPlay, it’s gonna be in the $1-200 range too. That’s a decent amount for something I might only use for a few months.
There is a little lag on mine. GPS is still usable, though the battery drain makes it less worthwhile on long trips. For me it’s been fantastic for short trips as I often just never took my phone out of my pocket when I wasn’t going far. It’s the CarLink 3.0 available on Amazon down to $52 with on page coupon.
