Upgrade the factory BMW display without changing the dashboard character
This BMW X3 G01 X4 G02 Android Head Unit gives your 2018–2021 BMW a wider, more modern screen experience while keeping the cabin clean, driver-focused and familiar. The goal is not to make the interior look aftermarket; it is to add CarPlay, Android Auto and Android app usability in a BMW-style screen position.
Vehicle-specific screen shape for G01 and G02 dashboards
The screen sits in the original display area, so your BMW X3 or X4 cabin keeps a clean factory-style layout. This matters because a poor universal screen can look disconnected from the dashboard and reduce long-term ownership satisfaction.
Wireless CarPlay and Android Auto for daily navigation
Wireless CarPlay and Android Auto help you use maps, calls, voice commands and music more naturally than the older factory interface. For commuting, business driving and long trips, the larger display makes route guidance easier to read.
Higher display clarity for maps, apps and split-screen use
The available high-resolution display gives navigation and media apps more room to breathe. A clearer screen is not just a specification upgrade; it reduces glance time and makes the cockpit feel newer during daily use.
Choose the correct BMW system before shipment
BMW vehicles can look similar from the outside but use different factory screen systems and LVDS connectors. iKAGOO checks your model year, dashboard layout and system photos before shipment to reduce wrong-version risk.

Snabbt svar
A direct summary for buyers comparing a BMW screen upgrade, CarPlay module, used factory unit or full Android head unit.
The BMW X3 G01 X4 G02 Android Head Unit is a vehicle-specific Android display and stereo upgrade for 2018–2021 BMW X3 and BMW X4 models with EVO / NBT EVO factory systems.
It upgrades the factory screen experience with wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Android apps, navigation, Bluetooth, DSP audio functions and 4G-capable configurations.
After correct connection and configuration, supported factory functions such as steering-wheel controls, iDrive-style control, factory audio output, reverse camera and parking information can continue to work through the matched vehicle interface.
Before shipment, iKAGOO checks your model year, dashboard layout, LHD/RHD position, factory system screen and connector photos to prepare the correct screen, wiring harness and vehicle interface.
Choose this upgrade if you want a modern BMW-style display experience without buying only by photo, guesswork or a generic Android screen listing.
Buyer Concerns Answered Before You Order
These are the first questions most BMW owners ask before replacing or upgrading the factory screen.
Will it fit my exact BMW?
It is designed for BMW X3 G01 and BMW X4 G02 models from 2018–2021 with EVO / NBT EVO factory systems. iKAGOO still checks your dashboard and system photos before shipment because BMW screen, connector and regional equipment differences can affect the correct version.
Will factory controls continue to work?
Supported steering-wheel buttons and the original BMW control interface continue to work after correct wiring and CANBUS configuration. This keeps daily operation familiar instead of forcing you to use only the touchscreen.
Is this a complete upgrade or just a CarPlay box?
This is an Android head unit screen upgrade, not only a hidden CarPlay module. It gives you CarPlay and Android Auto, while also adding Android app use, larger display options, navigation flexibility and hardware configuration choices.
Do I need to cut wiring?
No intentional cutting of supported factory wiring is required. The matched harness and vehicle interface are prepared to connect with the supported BMW system, and installation should stop if your connector does not match the supplied harness.
Core Buyer Benefits
Each benefit is tied to actual daily use, not only to a specification list.
Modern navigation without losing BMW cockpit logic
Wireless CarPlay and Android Auto make Google Maps, Apple Maps, Waze, calls and music easier to use on the road. Your BMW still keeps a driver-oriented screen location, so the upgrade feels integrated instead of looking like a temporary tablet.
10.25 inch or 12.3 inch screen choice
Choose the display size that suits your dashboard and preference. The larger screen is stronger for navigation and split-screen use, while the 10.25 inch option keeps a more restrained factory-like appearance.
4GB/64GB or 8+128GB configuration
The 4GB/64GB version is suitable for normal CarPlay, Android Auto and navigation use. The 8+128GB version gives more room for apps and smoother multitasking if you use the Android side frequently.
4G, Wi-Fi and app-based driving convenience
With supported configurations, 4G and Wi-Fi connectivity allow online maps, media apps and software-based functions to be used more flexibly. This gives older BMW infotainment hardware a more current daily-use experience.
Fabriksinställningarna behålls
Function retention depends on the correct BMW system, supplied harness, vehicle interface and proper installation.
Rattkontroller
Supported steering-wheel buttons continue to work after correct CANBUS or vehicle-interface configuration. This helps keep volume, track and call operation familiar during daily driving.
Factory camera and parking information
The factory reverse camera and supported parking information are retained after correct connection and setup. This keeps safer reverse-view use instead of forcing a separate camera system when the original camera is supported.
Factory audio and speaker output
Factory audio output remains supported through the matched BMW interface. Vehicles with special factory audio equipment should provide photos and details before shipment so iKAGOO can prepare the correct connection guidance.
Original BMW system access
The upgrade is prepared to work with your existing EVO / NBT EVO factory system rather than replacing the entire vehicle electronics architecture. Correct system identification is important before shipment.
Special factory audio systems, non-standard cameras, previous aftermarket modifications or uncommon regional configurations may require additional connection instructions. Please provide the requested vehicle information when ordering so iKAGOO can prepare the correct version.
Product Media Story
These current product visuals explain the screen, display quality, system selection and connected-use value.
Better app usability through a larger Android display
A larger Android screen makes maps, music apps and browser-based tools easier to operate than on an older factory interface. This is useful for owners who keep their BMW long term and want modern daily convenience.
Configuration choices should match how you drive
Screen resolution, processor, storage and connectivity affect how smooth the unit feels in real use. Choose the stronger configuration if you use Android apps often, not only CarPlay projection.
CarPlay, navigation and media in one upgraded interface
The upgrade gives your BMW a more useful display for navigation, music and phone functions. The value is strongest when you want more than a simple CarPlay activation or small factory screen repair.
Tracked order support after configuration checking
iKAGOO prepares vehicle-specific products after checking the configuration information you provide. Tracked shipping and after-sales communication help reduce uncertainty after purchase.
Send These Details So iKAGOO Can Prepare the Correct Version
BMW X3 and X4 model names are not enough on their own. Before shipment, iKAGOO checks the vehicle generation, year, dashboard layout, factory system and connector information to reduce wrong-version risk.
Why This Upgrade Is Worth Buying
The strongest value is for owners who want a modern display, CarPlay, Android Auto and Android app capability while keeping the BMW cabin clean.
Better than keeping the old factory screen unchanged
The original screen may still work, but it does not give the same flexible app experience as a modern Android head unit. This upgrade adds stronger navigation, phone integration and media usability for daily driving.
More complete than a CarPlay-only module
A CarPlay-only module can be enough if you only need phone projection. This BMW X3 G01 X4 G02 Android Head Unit adds a full Android display platform, screen size choice, storage options and more flexible app use.
Cleaner than a universal aftermarket screen
A universal screen may be cheaper, but it often creates fitment, control and wiring uncertainty. iKAGOO focuses on the correct BMW generation, dashboard layout, factory system and wiring match before shipment.
Useful for long-term BMW ownership
If you plan to keep your BMW X3 or X4, a screen upgrade can improve every drive. The value is strongest when you use navigation, calls, music and apps often instead of treating the screen as a decoration.
Varför handla hos iKAGOO?
The main difference is not only the screen. It is the vehicle-specific preparation before shipment and support after delivery.
Fordonsspecifik förberedelse
iKAGOO checks the BMW model year, G01/G02 generation, dashboard layout and factory system before preparing your order. This helps avoid buying only by product photos.
Screen, harness and interface matching
The screen, wiring harness and vehicle interface are prepared around your BMW system. Correct matching is what allows the Android screen to communicate with supported factory functions.
Original function integration
Supported steering-wheel controls, factory camera, parking information and factory audio logic are considered during preparation. The goal is a usable BMW upgrade, not just a screen that powers on.
Skydd av fabrikens ledningsdragning
The matched harness approach is designed to connect without intentionally cutting supported factory wiring. If connectors do not match, installation should stop and iKAGOO support should be contacted.
Support för installation och konfiguration
iKAGOO can help with connection checks, basic configuration direction and function testing after installation. This matters because CANBUS, camera and audio settings may need correct setup.
12-month hårdvarugaranti
Eligible hardware is covered by iKAGOO’s 12-month limited warranty. After-sales support is available for configuration, installation questions and verified product issues.

Each answer starts with a clear decision direction, then explains the buying logic.
Will this fit my exact 2018–2021 BMW X3 or X4?
Yes, if your vehicle is a supported BMW X3 G01 or BMW X4 G02 with the correct EVO / NBT EVO factory system. iKAGOO still checks your dashboard and system photos before shipment because model year, market region and connector details can affect the correct version.

Will the factory camera and parking sensors continue to work?
Yes, supported factory reverse camera and parking information can continue to work after correct connection and setup. Special camera systems or previous aftermarket modifications should be reported before shipment.

J’utilise souvent mon X3 pour des déplacements professionnels. CarPlay facilite les appels, les messages vocaux et la navigation sans manipuler constamment le téléphone. Le grand écran permet de lire rapidement les prochaines directions. Après avoir réglé le microphone et le volume des appels, la qualité est devenue tout à fait correcte.
