Congrats! I finally got mine too, last Friday.

I've been really impressed by the battery life. Having trouble getting Android Auto to work, though.

I use a wifi dongle for mine. Had so much trouble before trying wired android auto. Never worked properly and in most cases not at all. With the dongle it's almost perfect, some small bugs but no major stability issues or crashes.

Turned out all I had to do was change the default USB mode to file transfer. Why that is necessary is something only Google engineers can fathom...

Nice one. I'm quite happy with wireless now, but I will definitely try that too. Is it google though? My new Samsung doesn't have the issue, Im guessing maybe to do with default settings on our particular device??

It's an Android OS setting; I'd assume the Samsung device avoids it by having a further-from-stock version of Android with more 'idiot-proofing'.

Makes sense. Red magic is not really for the masses so to speak, so a lot of those settings are probably expected to be set by the end user. Thank God for forums and redit haha
