Does the WiFi hotspot option only come with the wireless charging option or is it a standard feature?

As far as I've seen you can't get it without the wireless charging tray. I have both.

In Europe is stand alone option...in the USA, do not know

I've only seen it bundled. Something worth noting is that this package also includes enhanced Bluetooth which is what text dictation is buried behind. This was very frustrating to discover.. I never bothered with wireless since my phones never fit.

That's a shame. I didn't think to bother with wireless charging either since my phone wouldn't fit but I was accustomed to my Audi's coming with WiFi hotspots standard so I didn't stop to think that the hotspot would only be a part of the wireless charging option.

Hi,

When I ordered my M340 in US, to get WiFi hotspot, I had to order wireless charging.

Wireless charging is terrific-- it charges my Samsung S8 quickly & allows me to use my phone as a digital key when driving.

As for WiFi Hotspot, while the car is wired for it (including its own phone number), you only get 3 months of free service & then AT&T mails you for $20/month-- quite honestly, am not sure if it's worth it

Hope that helps

Thanks for clarifying! Normally I agree WiFi hotspot isn't exactly worth it as I've had it in my past 3 vehicles and never subscribed after the trial period but this time around I was hoping to use it for my dash cams cloud storage.

The WiFi hotspot option is not necessarily tied to the wireless charging feature in smartphones.buy cox internet While some devices may offer both features as part of their specifications, WiFi hotspot functionality is typically a standard feature available in most smartphones, allowing users to share their cellular data connection with other devices wirelessly, regardless of whether the device supports wireless charging.
