Cons:
ridiculous price for map and updates from Garmin, poor software from Garmin, no even close to TomTom , lousy battery life
Pros: large screen Comment:
I have had this unit a few months and generally it works okay. One thing you will notice if you test it on a known route , in all modes of routing , its is not always optimal but generally gets you there.My biggest beef is the software and updates and extra map pricing from Garmin which is ludicrous. The PC software is cumbersome and dated looking.The battery life isn't that great so this is for use where a power source is available but that can be expected since this is a road navigation unit.Having seen a friends Tom Tom in action at about the same price point , hands down , Garmin have slipped badly compared. |
I brought a few of these in and sold them. No complaints or returns so far. People like the price and screen size. Other reviews indicate there may be some issues with route picking compared to higher end models, but I haven't heard any first-hand complaints.Would definitely bring in more if they drop below $100 again.
