Surround view on the 7-inch screen

I was unable to select the Navigation option on my 520d since my country is not covered. I am still wondering how the Surround View option and other "visibility" options appear on the smaller screen, since almost all the photos I have seen of this option at work have been on the larger 10.2-inch screen. Is the aspect ratio maintained, thus resulting in an overall diminished-in-size image? Why can't BMW just have the larger screen as standard, or offer it as an extra option without having to select the navigation package?

Can someone with both the surround view cameras and the smaller screen help me out? Have you ever felt the screen was too small?

Surround View looks the same in small screen and big screen.

Look:


On the big screen better is only navigation and of course interior with 10,2" look nicer than with small screen

Yeah the 10.2 inch screen looks SO much better! Thanks for the information.
