Wireless charging on G01 changed place??
At the BMW UK X3G01 configuration page the picture and details on Enhanced Bluetooth with wireless charging changed.
Any confirmation? |

Assuming the UK model has it in the same place as the US one (I don't see any reason it would be different), the wireless charger is not in that location, but at the very front of the center console. See the pic in this review: https://www.macrumors.com/review/bmw-wireless-carplay/

I wouldn't be surprised if they changed it. The current placement is not optimal. My phone slides around more than I'd like.
It seems like the configurator is the first place we can see changes. I remember when they changed the location of the badging last year. It could be seen in the configurator months before any dealers knew about it. |

But the 2A charging current through USB seems to be New as well.
I prefervtge current location though, since it's easier to reach while driving.

Some of the pictures of the optionals in the web are taken from other models. |

That’s correct. When the configuration went up in U.S. market that same image was used. I’ve seen that same image on other BMW’s as well and it made me stop and wonder where the charger was located. I think as of now, there are more models with charging in the armrest than there are models with charging in in the console. I personally hate the idea of having to lift the armrest lid and awkwardly turn sideways every time I want to charge my phone.
