Curious if anyone actually prefers the RX navi over Google Maps/Waze navi on your smartphone, which might be on a smaller screen, but significantly more reliable and accurate. I haven't used my navi since the first week I got the car--mainly for testing purposes. And I'm assuming a lot of RX owners are on the same boat..

I use it everytime. It took a little getting used to but as soon as you learn how to use it and even better, "Mark"-ing your favorite spots, makes it even easier to use. The cursor control is still a PITA even after getting used to it. I wish Lexus put another option like a touchpad or even better a mini-BT keyboard. And it's not too late to incorporate a mini-BT keyboard with a touch pad since the existing system is BT capable.

I'm another one who uses the Lexus system - I find it great actually, don't have to worry about phone placement - I always put the phone on the charging pad.

No doubt I'm in the minority, nothing new there, but I like the cursor control.

Nav in the vehicle is nice with a hud display.
I have screen mirroring for Google maps, Waze things like that on the 12" screen (beat-sonic)
Debating a pro clip mount for my phone too,

they are here on the Audio video forum, there is a forum member discount.
i for sure wanted the in motion bypass, the screen mirroring is a plus, not sure how much i'll use it vs a pro clip on the vent area.

Occasionally, I use Google Maps Turn-By-Turn via Bluetooth. So you get voice instructions thru your car speakers. Sometimes the 1st word Google speaks gets chopped at the beginning, but I’ve found it pretty accurate. You can combine that with the Waze app that will tell you road conditions, wrecks, construction & even police locations.

Just wondering if there's a similar "in-motion bypass" for Lexus without having to install 3rd party equipment...?
