AUX Input missing?

I put in my USB from my old e90 into my new X1 and noticed that I couldn't see the AUX input. Is it supposed to be located above the USB under the armrest?

X1 F48 don't have AUX input, It has only a USB port under the armrest.

I wish two USB ports (one for charge and one for music), but BMW don't think equal to me, :'(

Must either be market specific, or more cost cutting. My xLine, built November 2015 has an Aux input above the USB under the centre armrest. Agree that two USBs would be cool...

It seems to be cost cutting. I am in the UK too so would make sense.

Does anyone know if it's possible to retrofit an aux input?
The HU will most likely still have the pins for it.

An AUX port next to the USB port below the armrest was available until mid 2017.
My first F48 had one.

Early F48's had an aux input and also a second hidden USB port in the passenger footwell. (Same as your E90).

The aux input was removed but the headunit does still support aux in and it can be easily retrofitted.

Bluetooth seems to have taken over AUX inputs. You can buy a bluetooth transmitter for your audio source in necessary.
