    Been a Tesla owner for a little more than a month now and I agree 100% that having all functions tied to the touch screen hurts the ergonomics and is my biggest frustration with the car. This mod seems very promising and you did an amazing job reviewing it.

  • @KeemReviewz
    @KeemReviewz 9 місяців тому +2

    Good review! My unit should be delivered this week and I'm still excited for it based on this video. I would also prefer the OBD method so I'll be on the lookout for that. I see the s3xy buttons guys released the s3xy knob so that was looking real appealing as well.

    Thanks for letting me know this has been released. Unfortunately I went with the S3XY Knob when it was at its lowest pre-sale price. I think this is a great competitor for the S3XY knob, but the key will be in how the software works in the long term, as the S3XY control software is pretty mature at this point and does so much for your car.

    On a 17 inch screen there’s plenty space to put some fixed buttons to the sides or on the top or bottom portion of the screen for quick actions, wipers, headlights, glove box, ac and fan control. It should be like a widget or taskbar on an android phone if some users would like to use it or if you don’t want it then deactivate it. But there should be an option for everyone

    • @MikeSeuss
      @MikeSeuss  8 місяців тому

      There is something like that already, but the main feature is to bring physical buttons to those who like that old school feeling, also its much safer than tapping.

    @Thumpernator1 8 місяців тому +1

    I have had my 2020 Model 3 Stealth for three years. It doesn't have the motorized frunk or trunk nor the LED lights in the cabin. You can't open the trunk or frunk unless you're in Park, so why not just tap the picture on the screen instead of a button on this device? How often do I change the temperature setting? Not vey often. When I do, it's normally just a couple of degrees and a quick tap on the bottom of the screen is all it takes. Camp and Dog modes are used once you're stopped so enabling them on the screen is not taking your eyes off the road. Two taps on the screen and you can select one of those modes. Also, most of those items can be done with Voice Commands which do not take your eyes off the road. I think the reason the Tesla newbies may like this is because they are still used to knobs. I don't miss them at all. 😁
    I see this item as a total waste of money and definitely not needed. But thanks for reviewing this. I totally enjoy your videos. Don't always agree with your opinions, but that's ok.

    • @MikeSeuss
      @MikeSeuss  8 місяців тому

      Thanks, it’s definitely not for everyone but the sales prove there’s lots of interest. Personally I’ll find it more useful when new features are released.

    • @davidsuarez3199
      @davidsuarez3199 7 місяців тому

      Yeah, my wife changes the temperature and fan speed on our Y every 3 minutes, on average! Sometimes even more often. No joke!! And the “auto” setting on the windshield wipers for the Y are not very “auto”.
      Tapping twice, or sometimes 3x, on a digital screen is not only a distraction while driving but an inconvenience. Musk took off the buttons because it’s cheaper to manufacture, not because it’s better or it’s what people want.

  • @jeffreyvarrella2663
    @jeffreyvarrella2663 9 місяців тому +1

    The bar is a great option. I think the price is high for such a inexpensive item to make. I know that plastic is somethings cheap looking, but it's still the cheapest way to make a product. I agree with you Mike that the limited functions is a bummer...that would prevent me from purchasing this. I want to be able to set the buttons for the functions I want...not the functions they bar allows. Once they get an OBD connection..that may raise the price more since it can now have more functions. Have to wait and see how that goes before I would decide if I would purchase.
    Personally, I don't have an issue with no buttons in the car..coming from cars wtih lots of buttons and knobs. It was just as hard to get to climate controls and other functions with my 2020 Expolorer. If I really need to peform a function...I wait till I get to a stop light...or if I'm on the highway...Autopilot allows me to get things done with confidence.
    Great Reveiw Mike...always honest and you are not afraid for the Pros & Cons ! Keep up the good work !
