I don't understand the question. If an iPhone 8 works, the iPhone X also wil work as they use the same hardware/software for bluetooth.

It'll work, it's the same thing when it comes down to what matters. No reason why it shouldn't.

Could I ask what Y cable you are using? I bought a Y cable off eBay that said it worked with the iPhone 8, but it doesn't.

Thanks.

For anyone finding this thread, my iPhone X works perfectly with my 2011 M3 with combox, both USB and Bluetooth streaming. In fact the Bluetooth connects super fast and the streaming quality is outstanding. No drops either.

I'm using the Y cable from BMW. Then using an adapter to extend the lightning cable so I can dock my iphone on my ac vent magnetic mount
