Wireless Carplay

Do these vehicles support wireless CarPlay without having to buy an adapter?

Unpair your phone from the explorer or you’ll get connection issues.

I have that same unit. Works rather well for the $9 or so. Does have lag though.

I didn't have to unpair my phone however. Works fine as is.

For some reason, we all get different experiences. On the Yeysua, I get no lag (I have the Fullscreen mod). Wired Carplay (and most other dongles) is laggy with the mod.

I have the full screen mod as well. Odd how everyone has different experiences

Dont know why most love wireless, I prefer wired 10/10 times. It charges with lil to no heating, its faster/smoother, if for any reason starts to act up, just unplug and plug phone back again AND wired outputs lossless audio.

Wireless is slower, phone gets hot, eats battery, audio is lossy and have those annoying random disconnections that may require a phone restart after. Dealt with 4 different MFGs, all same crap and annoying.

I never thought I needed it either until I drone my wife’s new MB. It has a charging pad and wireless CarPlay. But the CarPlay is a choice.

If I get in the car with my phone, it starts everything in normal car mode but I have a CarPlay icon on the screen. Allows me to use it while charging but doesn’t force me.

My wife's BMW is the same way. Still holds true to everything including the lossy audio with wireless. Wireless charging is also slower, during summer after a 40 min drive, I need to remove it from the charging pad. I get a warning regarding phone being too hot. Never had that issue with wired during summer.

Wireless charging is definitely slower. I don’t really stream from my phone so don’t notice the worse audio over wireless.
