I don't know if market has corrected those or Apple did.

I couldn't care less about my car's infotainment system as long as the screen is 7+ inches and capable of Apple CarPlay.

I wouldn't call a glorified screen mirroring an "infotainment system".

I've got a pre-CarPlay OEM infotainment and can confirm, they are pretty shit.

The screen is hard to get it to register a tap, the corners are dead, and the UI is very 2013 (It's a 2013 toyota, so I guess more like 2009 UI).
