3 series 2015 to present??? Looking to buy and have looked at a couple of 328i 2015. The nav screen is almost not useable in sunlight - - we looked at two - same problem. What's the deal - different size screens?? different technology?? We looked at a new 330i and the screen was OK. I think that I read that in some years the screen size was dependent on how you bought it - standalone (smaller) vs Technology Package (bigger)??
What year and package do you need to buy to get a useable NAV screen? Did the screens change in some year?? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
I find exactly the opposite--I can see the iDrive screen clearly in any light situation. I had a 530e loaner yesterday, and the iDrive screen had a lot of glare in direct sunlight--not my 328. I know that the iDrive software changed in -- I think --2016. But I didn't think the screen changed; I never noticed the screen looking any different in any F30 loaner I had. Were you looking at a car without nav with the smaller screen??

I've never heard of this problem - is this a common issue? I'm fairly confident that there is a brightness setting, have you tried adjusting it? I believe BMW moved from the popup to the 'bigger' version in 2010 or 2011.
