Many are actually saying Idrive is superior and many on the forums here have actually deactivated carplay after getting it because they dont like it, especially its maps
I agree with this as Apple Maps suck and with iDrive 5.0 and 6.0 the map and traffic data is received in realtime via the 4G connection so you can trust its accuracy. Plus the whole iDrive GUI looks better than CarPlay anyways.

And yes, I have wireless CarPlay on my 2017 F80. Not sure how this press release is accurate. They're definitely using it to promote the new 5 hahaha
