Most are copy's sold on amazon and eBay there are good reviews coming in from the new Motorola one and should be less than £100 I bleave it uses a WiFi signal not Bluetooth to the phone so faster connection I could be wrong not looked in to deep yetMost wireless adaptors perform poorly. Just buy a short 150mm cable. Looks tidy and works perfectly.
Same option I picked too. At the end of the day it's a small cost difference, and what swung it is not being able to add on later if I should change my mind.For the sake of the extra cost I went with the Connect. It’s a private cash buy so maybe easier to sell in the future.
Yes, wireless CarPlay is over WiFi. The Trophy Connect has WiFi with hotspot. It’s a pity MG didn’t use this to provide wireless CarPlay. Anyway, it’s such a small issue and definitely does not detract from what is an excellent BEV. Our rich friends at Tesla have no idea what CarPlay is, apart from the fact that they cannot have itMost are copy's sold on amazon and eBay there are good reviews coming in from the new Motorola one and should be less than £100 I bleave it uses a WiFi signal not Bluetooth to the phone so faster connection I could be wrong not looked in to deep yet
Tesla runs a modified version of Google Maps. The Trophy Connect has a really good SatNav built in now. It also has Amazon Music, weather etc.I mean, Tesla doesn't have CarPlay but it does have decent maps, Spotify etc built in right?
Just wondering if we get the Trophy edition of the ZS, and plug in the phone to use CarPlay (will likely be connected 99% of the time, unless just regular bluetooth works too) - can we still have the phone on the wireless charging area, or will that cause problems? I'm guessing when it's plugged in and charging, it'll disable the wireless charging feature
Wi-Fi hot spot is a feature that I wanted so I've been checking on this, so far it seems this is available on the standard Trophy.
If anyone knows for sure please post here.
I've seen the features of both and the Hot Spot is in both.
Yes it does and it has already proved to be very useful.The Trophy Connect does have a wifi hotspot .

Just out of interest what accessories did you buy?Bought the Trophy cash also, rather spend the £500 on a spare wheel and accessories.
As a trophy owner now for three months the car is brilliant. However the Connect addition does nothing for me. Firstly the free updating maps is currently of little value as there are no map updates to be had at the present time. Using an IPhone with Waze and Radio player means we hardly ever use the onboard sat nav as car play gives a map and media split screen option. For free if you have unlimited data as I do.
Overall the car is great and the combination off car play and Waze or Google gives integration at no monthly cost. All important features are included such as remote warm up etc. hot spot is mine from my phone and if available from the cars internet connection will not be free. Often the idea of these things is more attractive than the reality. Hope this helps
