    Also, volume 20 is not 50% of volume. It does not increase in a linear way. I am in communication with Dynaudio because in my tests volume was limited and this is supposed to be 775w system. But on max it was quite low in my tests.

      It is a bit low, it's as if they never want you to hear the system distort.. or come close to distorting!
      At max volume it's loud and punchy but it should be able to go another 20% more.. don't get me wrong it's nice and clear and there is great bass with the EQ bit I know this system can go bigger.

One thing I didn't cover in my video is that I enjoyed listening to relaxing quiet music in my Seal as I wind down from work heading home.

      The SIM in the car basically allows our BYD mobile app to communicate with the car. It allows us to lock and unlock the car using the mobile app and other remote functions like switch on the air con remotely. The car can also report it's status to the mobile app, such as how much it has charged up when the car is charging at a charging station. My next video will be about this, the BYD Seal mobile app video and I will briefly mention about this. Stay tunned.

      Unfortunately no, my microphone will start clipping the audio if it's too loud. That's why I didn't record at high volume.

    dumbest car ever made in the history of cars.
    pointed out explicitly in the first 3 mins.
    1. car doesn't automatically turn on dark mode in a tunnel.
    2. car doesnt bring volume to a default, safe listening level on the next journey. any car with a digital stereo has this
    3. aircon controls on a touchscreen 🤦‍♂
    which r***rd made this car?

      Well yes and no, I work for BYD, the screen does switch to dark mode while tunneling or night time, the volume is annoying I agree, but again will be updated, and regarding the air controls, you can change them (as of last week) by the screen, the steering wheel and even by swiping three fingers up across and up and down the screen
