My girlfriend is driving the new City. Funny thing is the side camera is only on the left mirror.

But yes the reverse and side camera is quite pixelated. The Proton X50 does a better job with their cameras surprisingly.

EDIT: But honestly on the new City, Apple CarPlay is really effortless and smooth. Pretty sad that the X50 doesn’t have a better infotainment system for the price paid. Hoping that there’s an update in the future to support.

Just use the mirror QDlink unfortunately.. can try android auto dongle if it works.

Btw, does the x50 have walk away lock feature?

How does the android dongle actually work? Saw your post at the X70 thread.

You plug in the dongle, and your phone to the dongle. Saw it in shopee/lazada too.

pricing a "national brand" car which is wholly CKD at that price is no different then committing suicide :lol2: even at this price point, so many are complaining "it is expensive".
*
Agree. One of the reason why perodua is still top sales.
Once D55 comes out, it will eat some of the X50 sales for sure..

Thanks, I found same info for X70.

However, just now I was surprised the review from this youtuber, the SA told him that inside the arm rest bottom compartment actually wireless charging for the key fob.

(start from 11:15 mins)
I also noticed x50 key fob have a small flat rectangular button at the middle bottom.

My guess this is for withdrawal the physical key to open car door. Then place the low battery key fob inside the arm rest compartment to start the car.

while I agree with you points above, I think where HRV may be better is in its resale value, customer experience (buying & after sales), availability of parts, competency of service centers, long term use (build quality)
*
Recent quality and after sales has dropped if you looked at forums..

RHB also approve my loan application, just like what you said above. 2.32% for 7 years. But I don't take it. The difference of 7 and 9 years installment is to high for me.

Me Public bank offers 2.31 for 7 years, 2.28 for 5 years

I got PBB 2.28 5years. But loan 90% of course..

my bf and I were very impressed with x50 after test driving, before that we tested honda city/cx5 before and think that x50 is good. Booked jet grey flagship today, but still deciding whether to go for it anot..awaiting more reviews hehe
*
If you're getting the flagship, it's worth it with all the features, ADAS and pricing. You can wait for reviews later on if you haven't book it

Has anyone reported this issue to Proton? Looks like a RHD conversion fail.
*
Would be a good try to raise this issue, mirror is such a basic thing.
If not, raise it via car reviewers.

QUOTE(ycs @ Nov 10 2020, 09:08 AM)
i'd guess they deliberately downgrade/omit some items to keep for facelift model, eg ambient light, better 360 cams, builtin dashcam recorder, power tailgate
*
Agree. If they give everything, it would undermine x70 sales and future x50 facelift sales.

can we use 3rd party camera with better resolution for x 50?

If you dare to break the warranty..

thats y the new budget is so fuked up, the transportation sector not even promote EV while like thailand they promote EV die die. OK la, thailand population is 2 time ours.

Agreed. Not to mention there is supposed price hike for 2021. Thats why nobody knows what will be the price for 2021. Alot of uncertainty in next year for the automotive industry.

your SA not powderful enough. tbh if he/she isn't able to get you the car within the SST exemption period you should consider changing SA or cars even. Plenty of new launches lately.

also, I don't know why people still put up with the blatant money grab by SAs who force you guys to take the accessory package. Cant you all report this to Proton HQ or something? I'm pretty sure it's giving them a bad name.
*
QUOTE(djhenry91 @ Nov 11 2020, 12:32 PM)
at least my SA never ask me about tht accessory package
*
Agree.. my SA asked but i just say not interested. Those accessories can get better ones outside anyway.. still waiting for my x50. Hopefully by this month..

My SA also like that. Explained that if faster want the car, add the package. I said cannot la, no use for me. Then said for the next car allocation at the dealer, my name is on the top list. Should get the car by the end of this month.

If by the end of this month also cannot get car, maybe consider to cancel buying the car altogether...
*
Sounds like we bought at the same dealer? Hahaha
But i also looked at city 2020 forum. Some suggested hyundai ioniq because they giving rebate (same price with x50) but older car with similar features + hybrid.

QUOTE(storky20 @ Nov 11 2020, 04:05 PM)
If you're not in a rush, can consider 2021 car also.
Depreciation lets say 10% aka RM10K.
Price without SST exemption maybe roughly 5-6K difference?

Will stand to 'save' RM4-5K when you let go of the car (eventually).

This is my plan if the SA really cannot guarantee this year, I'll just ask him to get it by CNY or something.
*
Yeah, get later batch also no problem, but of course if can save why not. Now also can't really drive anywhere sad.gif
