New additions and start up screen after software update

So I had a whole bunch of software updates done which included the MBUX system. I have noticed there is a new start up screen.

There is also a new icon on the top right of the screen. It has something to do with the facial recognition. Does anyone have any info???

I’ll also upload the new updated software version.

Interesting, no update for the 450+ yet on my end. Apple Music did finally decide to work though so that's something!

Mine is also a 450+. The updates had to be done in service.

gotcha, the hyperscreen threw me off. I'll have to ask about any new updates when they install my replacement headrest.

I was a the dealership today and didn't get the update. Maybe it's done in batches.

Any new features? Suspension control? Dashcam?

Omg I'm so excited, first update for my EQS. Are you in the US? I'll enquire with my service guy about the update too.

Could you check if air suspension control and/or dashcam is now available?

The driver camera icon is the feature that enables passengers to view videos on the passenger screen and dims the screen if the driver looks at it. I'm excited for this feature to be in my hyperscreen EQS too!

Thanks for reporting this!

My current firmware version below
RL NTG7 E250.403_21394AC3

I am in the US. It’s a MBUX update that service has to do. There is still no air suspension control. Dashcam was not an option on my car, but the new Mercedes me store coming out soon for the US should be able to load that on the car OTA. I have tried to play videos on the passenger display after the update and still seems to be locked out. I’m sure it can be turned off with a future OTA update.

Thanks for the reply! Where did you hear about the new Mercedes Me store that's coming for US customers? I was hoping for at least some features to be unlocked with this OTA, but ohwell - at least it's an update.

Did you have any issues after the update? I've found that most EVs have issues with (un)related systems after software updates in general. I'll ask my service center about it too.

I work for a Mercedes dealership. I had memos saying it was coming, but has been delayed and delayed. Last I heard is a June release.

Update was done by service. No issues after the update

Im curious, have you paid for the data package and if so, any chance you can try the built-in hotspot to see if it works on the new software? I don’t think any of us has gotten it to work on the default software version.

I paid for the data package via T-Mobile and it works pretty well for me since day one! My firmware version is above.

Hello, did this software update fix this issue I’m having on the consumption screen where it shows the range from 0 to 65535 Wh/mi? Also does it change the consumption from Wh/mi to 100kWh/100km if switched into metric units? Thanks for your insight on this. 😃
