During daylight hours I can see the outline of the dashboard directly in front of me reflecting onto the windshield.
Has anyone else noticed this? Maybe it's due to my 6'1" height and how I have the seat adjusted? I have to play around more but was wondering if anyone else noticed this as well>

I've noticed it a lot if the suns directly overhead, 5'10, it isn't always, just certain conditions.

If it didn't melt the phone, poor man’s heads up, is it that bad or just occasional reflections at certain moments?

Yes. 6'2 with a much longer torso. During certain periods and depending how the sun hits it, it actually can be distracting as hell. I was just talking to the wife about this. They shouldn't have made it multiple textures behind the gauges, it makes it stick out even worse in the reflection. The fake carbon fiber texture portion can be difficult to see through at times, where the flat black portions aren't nearly as bad.

I see reflections of the dash on sunny days, too, but it's nothing novel to the Mustang. Polarized glasses work well to minimize it.

Most cars will have reflections at differnt times. The S650 is no worst. I don't see any major problem. I do wear polarized Maui Jim sun glasses.

I see the top of the screen reflected as a single white line.
Once i figured it was the top of the screen and not a crack, i paid no attention to it anymore.
Besides, it's only in one particular direction when the sun is at a specific angle so not worth trying to fix.

Every car will have some reflection. Sometimes it's a vent grille, sometimes it's a knob...

Polarized glasses work the best....Not in the DH but I have had HUD's in the other cars that don't play well a polarized lens.

tested today. Mine is actually worse with polarized glasses. I did have a problem in the past if I turned my iPhone sideways, landscape, the display would disappear. I'll play around with it a bit. Not a show stopper. Just curious.

I’ve noticed it too. I’ve got a 400A one piece screen. The screen has shiny DEFINITELY reflective material on it. Ford probably could have used something different, but I’m sure the backing of the screens currently is the cheapest way to go lol Only notice it when I’m driving in the mid day though.
