I am curious if any of you that have received your vehicles have noticed any problems viewing the 3 displays while wearing polarized or other glasses. I don't have my Q50 and I was planning to order some prescription driving glasses but am unsure whether polarizing or other treatments affect the viewing of the screens.

I use polarized glasses and haven't noticed any degradation in view quality of the displays.

I had problems viewing the upper screen when wearing polarized clip-on sunglasses. I ordered a pair of non-polarized clip-ons onine from Sunglass Rage and now I see the screen perfectly.

The polarized glasses will show a rainbow effect on the screens. It's not the LCD it's from the glass cover.

I have very dark, polarized, prescription glasses. I have no problem seeing the screens.

I wear polarized sunglasses every time I'm in the car during the day and I have zero problems seeing any parts of the screen.

Good info!

Thanks

I haven't had issues either and I wear polarized sunglasses as well.

Weird that you all don't have problems with polarized sunglasses... I definitely noticed a difference when putting on my polarized Ray Bans, but at least the screen is still usable.

I test drove all three AWD cars with polarized sun glasses. I wear them every day and wanted to make sure I had no issues.

I had no issues.

Turn your head slightly and you will have some rainbow effect or stripes but I had no issues looking at the display straight on.

I suspect it depends on the polarization orientation of the sunglasses. See this article if you're really interested: Polarization
