I dislike the white columns I have now on both side of the display. Left side now has setting, etc. buttons and right side now has telephone, etc. buttons. I really prefer the background to be the same as the center on both sides of the screen. Oh well...

I use CarPlay in full-screen mode, so it really doesn't matter to me. I looked at the rear controls, which I haven't used yet, and didn't notice how much it had changed, so I can't comment there. I do love the AC and seat controls being set full-time at the bottom. They better not mess with that. On Sync 3, it took multiple button presses to turn on the steering wheel heat, which was dumb. Overall, I prefer this new system, wireless charging, and wireless CarPlay over any of the Sync 3 cars I had. Never had Sync 4.
