This means if you get a new phone for whatever new feature your car can use it because all it is doing is projecting it onto the screen.

Downside, Apple/Google/MS control more things.
yep, if BT could provide more data and use less power on the device side, this would be the most ideal way. even today aftermarket HU's like my pioneer can sync up to contacts and run native apps (pandora) without even taking the phone out of your pocket.

if the device can be wirelessly charged while in the car (without taking it out of your pocket), and have faster wireless connection to the HU, then that would be the most ideal
