Customer Reviews
Overall a good GPS unit
I purchased this on an Amazon sale for about 1/2 price and must say it was the best value for the money at the time. I've own it now for about a year and have been very happy for a 2nd generate device.
Pros-easy to create routes by several methods.
-very accurate
-icon that lets you know what lane to be in ahead of time.
-easily toggle between speed, time and distance to go.
-quick satellite acquisition.
Cons-maps no longer updateable (not a big deal for trips, but trying to find a house in a new neighborhood would be a problem)
-the button lights (blue) are very bright at night when you press them
-very accurate-in that if a 2 lane is widened to a 4 lane it shows you are not on track.
-battery doesn't last long
Conclusion- if you can find one at a reasonable price it is a good choice. With the 3rd generation GPS units less than $200 it wouldn't make sense to pay too much for this one.
The worst GPS on the market
I have a 550 and have had nothing but problems. Sent back to Navman after 6 mos. of very light use because the touch screen stopped working. They took 6 weeks to fix it. Now trying to buy updated maps for US and told Navman does not support map updates for this product anymore. What a joke.
you get what you pay for
Don't waste your money. I already own an icn510 which is great. I purchased this item for the other car expecting it to be newer and better. What I got was a unit that frequently froze up requiring me to pull over and reboot the system, (especially time consuming on the highway). Also it fails to indicate the name of the next street approx 30% of the time leaving you completely baffled if there are more than 1 street within 300 feet, which is not uncommon. Finally the only accent loud enough to hear are the British ones which use british terms such as motor way etc, can be annoying if you are use to words like highway etc. All in all a very frustrating device. Leave it to Navman to make a second generation device that is inferior to the first. Congrats, you can keep this POS.
