infotainment

Infotainment (a portmanteau of information and entertainment), also called soft news as a way to distinguish it from serious journalism or hard news, is a type of media, usually television or online, that provides a combination of information and entertainment. The term may be used disparagingly to devalue infotainment or soft news subjects in favor of more serious hard news subjects. Infotainment-based websites and social media apps are gaining traction due to their focused publishing of infotainment content, e.g. BuzzFeed.

    Infotainment System

    Hi All, I've had my Trophy for just over a month now and I'm loving it. The only small annoyance I've noticed is with the infotainment system and connecting it to Carplay. When you first get in the car, you have to wait for the animations to cycle before the home screen appears and you can't...

    A work-around for the awful radio

    Sorry, but just about everything about the radio is awful and very distracting if trying to change stations whilst you are driving. My workaround is to use a combination of Apple CarPlay, and the BBC Sounds app and the TuneIn Radio app. Connect your iPhone to the car with a cable. Say ‘Hey...

    Infotainment Screen Failure

    Well, I suppose it was inevitable. After 1500 miles of trouble-free driving, my infotainment screen is borked with the usual flicking from one screen to another (see Video). It seems to be a problem with the screen driver as the main screen decreases slightly in size and it's enough for the left...
