Admittedly, I was not using a satnav while driving a test x5 so could not appreciate the full size of the HUD displaying max information fields on a windscreen, but the size of speed indications was the same in my recollection. HUD also had a bit of more "depth" in its perception. That might be the main visual difference.

I'm also quite tall (188 or 6'2), so my seating possition is quite high. However, is your seat is at max hight and you are really close to the wheel/windscreen, rhen neither HUD nor HUS would be in your direct field of vission I'm affraid. My HUS is mounted on a panel, not sure if you could possition it any higher (but again, I do not feel the need for any higher possitioning of a HUS.

For my next car I'm deffinetly geting an integrated solution (hud), but if you do not have and regret of not getting it, HUS is a perfect escape from such a situation. Im glad bmw thought about it and provided it in time
