I've driven i3s and, unfortunately, it's not ideal.

Well, the knob is fine - the CarPlay apps aren't. You can find the physical control by touch, but for any non-trivial operation you still have to actively watch the display as you fiddle the dial to get to the action (on-screen control) you need.

Which is dangerously distractive on the road and kind of irritating when parked.
