dont you need to physically hook up your android (or iphone) to the HU? that is clumsy imho especially in the winter time when we have gloves on and a long coat.

Yes you do the amount of data pulled through to display everything and control your phone would drain your battery like crazy if it was wireless. If your looking for just audio streaming than yes it can be wireless however your going too loose audio quality.

I'm doing it mostly for my Google maps . Any HU for years most part has Bluetooth which translates to wireless audio streaming
