There have been a bunch of small changes to that overhead console. Original 2017 models had rear as shown above (at the "top") and SOS where rear was. Also, the whole overhead console used to be clear and light up. Then they switched rear and SOS and gave SOS the little cover and removed the lighting for the console itself and switched it out to glossy black.

This is exactly what mine looks like. Thanks for sharing. I meant to say I have a 2017 earlier, not 2018. Sorry.

We had noted losing the door pocket lights on the 2019 and not being able to drop the center screen while driving (the screen one being chalked up to government regulations). And I guess the jack is no longer a no-cost option...

But I quickly noticed the deletion of the overhead button that only turned on the rear lights. Besides hating the look of dead buttons on vehicles, we actually make good use on trips when our toddler wants light in the back and we don't need the distraction up front. Or want to check on the kids while driving at night.

Really glad we bought our 2018. Are they just trying to save a few pennies per vehicle? Like the genius who removed a single olive from each airline meal back in the day?
I hope Audi doesn't disable the ability to drop your screen. I have a 2018 as well and am worried they'll deactivate that function the next time I go in for service.
