Ram used a nice processor

[Edwards]

Was traveling this week and was in a Jeep Compass rental. It runs UConnect on a 7-8" screen and I was shocked at how much lag there was. Jeep obviously used a slower, less capable proc in that system.

On the Ram 12" I've been very pleased with how snappy everything runs, especially when you think about any possible future upgrades that could further tax the system. Had a Ford Sync system years ago that got noticeably slower with each update.

The only odd thing is when running Android Auto. I do notice a bit of lag there which I don't understand. UConnect should only be operating as a remote display with touch input. All of the processing is happening on the phone, right?

I’m also pleased with the UConnect speed most of the time, @Edwards. There are the occasional hangs in switching SiriusXM stations, but that may be a SiriusXM problem.

I use Apple CarPlay with an iPhone XS, and it’s at least as fast as the UConnect system. I’m mostly running Google Maps, which is very responsive.

I get zero lag when on only Sirius, but notice the most when switching Sirius channels while Android Auto is also running.

Isn't Uconnect version 4C where the major system updates happened?
