Review of Garmin nüvi 370 by losty741

Advantages: very good sign and maps
Disadvantages: Battery

Although it is loaded with features, the nüvi 370 still allows easy browsing.

Navmans attempt at a user friendly sat nav
Review of Navman ICN 520 by StanRogo

Advantages: simple to use, touch screen and buttons
Disadvantages: terrible night mode, one route at a time

The navman ICN 520 sat nav is a basic sattelite navigation system(sat nav) that is for those who do not drive a lot and want a simple to use and basic sat nav. Its mainly operated via the buttons on the right hand side of the screen but tries to incorporate a touch screen. The good thing about this sat nav is that it is not just a touch screen so for those drivers who may not be used to a higher level of technology it is very easy to use. I first ...
...blind you but on this, Navman has not done a very good job. Overall this sat nav is very easy to use and is welcoming to users of all ages from the younger generation for which a touch screen has been incorporated, to those who are slightly older for which the buttons on the right hand side make navigation around the sat nav easy. ...

Tomtom 720 GPS
Review of TomTom GO 720 by Camila

Advantages: Quick routing, bright readable screen, customizable, good quality build
Disadvantages: Terrible Menu system, hard to change setting

I used 720 for over 6 months of daily usage this is what you need to know. The screen is bright and clear 4.3" LCD touch screen and very easy to read. The screen is customizable, you can download different map colors, customize the readout info, eta, arrival time, etc.. Routing is quick and generally accurate occasionally the routing will not be the optimum way to go , but the final destination is usually 95% accurate. Miss a turn and a new route ...
...software the 720 will update itself with the latest map corrections, a nice feature. Battery life is about 4 hours at 75% brightness setting. The 720 has a SiRFstarIII chipset which very fast acquiring signals. Rarely did I lose a signal. Now the bad part,the menu layout sucks finding the right menu to change a setting is NOT easy compared to garmin nuvi. Overall a very good unit ... Read review

An Excellent Navigator!
Review of TomTom ONE XL United States and Canada by chrislim7

Advantages: Accurate, friendly, system itself is excellent
Disadvantages: Couldn't find one yet

I was amazed. It was excellent in almost every way. The accuracy was perfect, the interference is friendly, and the step-by-step direction system was easy to understand. If you accidently go the wrong way, in 5 seconds it finds a new road for you. I get lost easily, but after I bought this, the worries were gone completely. Once, I was going in a way that I had gone few times but it was very unfamiliar. One day the road was on construction. I was ... Read review

Find your way
Review of Garmin nüvi 5000 by spaerra

Advantages: large screen, allows you to attach a backup camera, lots of settings
Disadvantages: maps seem to be old

A great GPS. The large screen is really nice. It calculaters your route based on shortest time or shortest distance. Will automatically recalculate the route if you experience road construction or pit stop. Shows speed limits and ETAs. Will also locate nearby businesses based on category. Will automatically zoom in and out for developed or rural areas. Allows you to set things like whether or not you want to include gravel roads. Lots of other customized ...
...up and which lane you need to be in to make your exit. I've attached a backup camera which has been a great plus. The maps themselves seem to be rather old even though I have downloaded the 2009 maps. I've found major roads that are missing and the house numbers that are wrong. ... Read review
