If you wanna be famous, send a link to your YouTube video to Electrek as they want to do an article on the faster/better MCU1 browser with 2018.14 but need a video for it.

Is there a post where someone explained vector maps in the tesla? The forum is so popular that threads blow up to 10 pages overnight and it's tough to find the information/answers to some of these questions.

Finally got to drive around and saw no other issues with tesla waze on the browser.

All the sites that wouldn’t load before. Try nytimes.com
CNN.com
Latimes.com
Tesla.com (and try to purchase a vehicle - wouldn’t work before)
Teslainventory.com

I'm uploa
I'm uploading now. I recorded before I saw this but I did got to a lot of those sites. What an improvement
Sorry - I just can't get excited about a new browser. Sure, nice to have, but my phone has a much better browser, all my bookmarks & history, password management, etc. It's also easier to use the phone from an ergonomic standpoint (IMHO).
I'm more excited about keeping it from rebooting, lagging when pushing the garage door button, and streaming audio.

I also don't really care but I'd rather they focus solely on autopilot improvements. I like staying alive more than complaining about the various problems being fixed in recent updates.
I agree. By far what I want are Autopilot improvements and features. Navigation is second, as imo the Navigon routing is basically useless for 99% of my time in my car. But I can live with clipping a phone to my car to work around that. I don’t want to clip a phone to my car to work around Autopilot.

Could one of the lucky ones that has gotten the 2018.14 make a video and post it.... I would really like to see how fast the new browser is. So far there is no youtube videos showing this.... who will be the frist one?!?!
Just posted a quick video, here's the link:
Sorry about the video quality, I just wanted to get something quickly out there so you all could see it.

Here it is. It's currently processing a rotation. So it'll show landscape until it finishes

Interestingly enough the old browser does better on the html5 test for forms but much worst for elements.
2018.12
2018.14
2018.12
- Elements 7/30
- Forms 45/65
2018.14
- Elements 25/30
- Forms 39/65
In your video you say Kilo Bytes per second. It is Kilo Bits per second.... But other than that, cool!

Yep, good catch - I had a feeling someone would pick up on that. Corrected myself on the Mega bits!

Maybe someone already posted this screenshot but when I first went to use the new maps/navigation I saw this screen which I hadn’t seen before.
Also as others have said, some websites that previously didn’t work now work. Or at least “work more”.
An example is Speedtest.net.
Previously this wouldn’t even fully render for me.
My release notes for 2018.14 mention the new navigation explicitly.
Question: Does this maps section dynamically appear in the release notes of 2018.12 after the maps have loaded in (I heard they kind of “side load” separately from the rest of 2018.12)?
Yes. (They do in 2018.14 too, it doesn't just come with the maps, they come later normally.)

Awesome - the hidden gems of this update (and 2018.12) keep on coming. Haven't seen this Nav screen yet, but I'll be sure to keep my car connected to WiFi every night until I do!

it's perfect. And it's not filmed vertical. Thanks for posting it.

Got 2018.14 today, but I doubt my maps have side-loaded yet, as my Router is only showing the car pulling ~275MB the last 24 hours
