I was just about to mention this!
Navigation is good to go after the PDI. It's the same TomTom layout as the 17-18 Impreza and 18 Legacy, Outback, and Crosstrek. I used it on my way home and it is kind of small, but way better than using a phone.
I'm an Apple guy so I use Apple CarPlay. When I first played with it during the 17' Impreza Launch I was excited about it. That's worn off but I'm still very glad it comes with it. I'll probably use it for Music, as it's easier to switch between playlists and what not. Other than that, most people will probably use it for making phone calls and reading text messages. It'll be fun to sit in the car and figure it out for the first time, whether it's Apple or Android!
Audio does sound better compared to my HyperBlue. I'm not sure if they added 2 additional speakers though, but I can tell it sounds better even at the Flat EQ settings.
I haven't had time to sit and look at all the settings, but there are a lot, and it is quite the departure from the headunit in my HyperBlue!
