I respectfully note it seems the people in this thread who don't like the haptic touch buttons, are people who don't have a mk8 Golf.
After a week or two with the mk8, I found it feels a very retrograde step to go back to 1990's nokia-phone-style buttons. The haptic feedback and the touch and swipe of the mk8 is great, really great, after you get some experience with it.

People know that in the car they are driving now that don't want to lose the screen they are on to adjust other things, especially when those other things used to be buttons.

You do realise it’s the haptic buttons they’re talking about changing not the touch screens !! And for heavens sake there’s only one screen on a phone for phone, photos, emails, texts, social media, etc etc etc, no different, just a matter of getting used to it, it’s not rocket science.

I know, it's a start but not the cars biggest problem.
How is the sunglass holder in the 8's?
