I Phone X

Is there anyway to find out if IPhone X will be compatible with BMW. No more HOme Button, will steering wheel be able to turn on SIRI to make calls?

Bet it will. In the Keynote speech they showed the wireless charge in what looked like a G30.

I run the iOS 11 beta, same which will be on the 8 and X.. It's the OS that does all the work, lack of a home button shouldn't make any difference (to note, on the X, you hold the side button for Siri). In iOS 9, 10, and 11 holding the microphone button on the steering wheel activated the bluetooth linked voice control, aka Siri, for me.

The 8 and X support the Qi standard for wireless charging; that's the same standard BMW is following.

Yes, it's only slightly larger than the iPhone 6/7/8 (not the plus).

The plus fits in the charge tray with the slim Apple case - just... so the x will fit for sure.
