We get it: lack of buttons suck, fingerprints, etc. I'd venture to say ID8 with voice commands will be a huge step up, software-wise (neglecting anything related to hardware). Not sure how long ID7 will get updates when ID8 becomes all you can get.
Agreed. I am certain the buttons were reduced as BMW is aiming to shift us to voice commands. If the implementation is done well it will be less distracting than the buttons. My iDrive 7 car an already accurately discern between driver and passenger for commands.

I agree it will take personal use to really tease out how well they executed.
