The XTRONS QLBH44NEEV3 is a 14.9 inch Android 14 screen for the BMW 2 Series F22 F23 from 2018 with the original NBT EVO system. It adds wireless CarPlay, Android Auto, built-in 4G and a DSP, and the original CD player stays.
- 14.9 inch fully laminated screen with a custom bezel and 2.5D edge
- Wireless CarPlay and wireless Android Auto
- 12nm octa-core chip with 8GB DDR4 RAM and 128GB ROM

- Works alongside the EVO system with no CD player removal
For the F22 and F23 with EVO
This unit only works with the original BMW NBT EVO system in the 2 Series F22 F23 from 2018. An EVO radio usually has the newer iDrive interface with the time displayed at the end. If the iDrive has been modified or updated, check which system you have before ordering.
The CD player stays in place. After fitting, the original system is controlled with the iDrive controller, as touch doesn't work on it and gesture control can't be activated.
Wireless CarPlay
CarPlay connects your iPhone without a cable, so maps, music and messages appear on the 14.9 inch screen and voice commands keep your hands free.
Your iPhone connects on its own when you start the car, so there's no cable to plug in. It needs an iPhone with wireless CarPlay support; check yours in Settings > General > CarPlay. A cable still works when you'd rather charge on the way.
Wireless Android Auto
Android Auto connects wirelessly as well, with Google Maps, music and calls on the display.
Maps, calls, messages and music from your Android phone appear on the car screen, with Google Assistant for voice control. It needs a phone with Google services, which most Android phones have. To connect without a cable, the phone must support wireless Android Auto too.
Android 14 performance
A 12nm octa-core chip with 8GB DDR4 RAM and 128GB ROM runs Android 14, with space for plenty of apps.
Built-in 4G
Insert a SIM card and the unit gets its own 4G connection for navigation, video and online apps. A 4G antenna is in the box.
A SIM card in the head unit gives it its own internet connection for maps, traffic and streaming, so it doesn't need your phone's hotspot. You supply the SIM and the data plan; a data-only SIM is usually the cheapest way to do it.
Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi connects the unit to a home network or hotspot.
DSP
The DSP lets you adjust the sound to the car's speakers and your seat.
The sound processor lets you tune the sound to your car: an equaliser, a delay for each speaker so the sound centres on your seat, and crossovers that keep deep bass away from small speakers. Start from a preset and change one setting at a time.
Screen mirroring
Screen mirroring shows your phone's display on the head unit for apps outside CarPlay and Android Auto.
Mirroring shows your phone's whole screen on the car screen, unlike CarPlay and Android Auto, which show apps designed for driving. It usually needs a companion app on the phone, and paid video streaming apps often block it.
USB
A USB cable is included for connecting a phone or USB device.
Microphone
A mini microphone comes in the box for hands-free calls and voice commands.
DAB radio
DAB digital radio works when an external DAB tuner is connected.
Digital radio gives clearer sound and more stations than FM where there's DAB coverage. It needs a DAB aerial: a stick-on windscreen aerial is the usual choice, or a splitter if your car already has a combined FM and DAB aerial.
