Personally, I still prefer Android Auto (i.e. phone projected onto car screen) to Android Automotive (Android built into the car infotainment system). My phone gets way more updates than my car, and it's cheaper to buy a new phone once it stops getting updates.

I have the same sentiment towards smart TVs vs plain old "dumb" TVs + a streamer.

Most of the world doesn't buy the most expensive iPhone or Galaxy device every 1-2 years. There will always be less expensive models sold.
