I have CarPlay and the Head Up Display (HUD). Speed, speed limit, BMW Navigation Phone and Media are displayed on the HUD. Also, you can control most function directly from the steering wheel. However, with CarPlay, you loose the integration with the steering wheel and HUD. The NAV screen is the only display and with iDrive knob you have scroll/click though the icons and options. The interface to CarPlay is rather clumsy. Also. Apple Maps is poor. Luckily, as of yesterday, you can now use Google Maps if you have the latest iOS 12.
