Atlantis X-5600 5.6-Inch Portable GPS Navigator Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)It is somewhat difficult to rate this product, as it has both pluses and minuses.
On the positive side:
1. The 5.6" screen is a real plus. I'm glad I got that size and not something smaller.
2. It does a good job showing upcoming turns and intersections.
3. It recalculates routes quickly.
On the negative side:
1.When the unit is first turned on, while it sometimes finds the satellites in a few minutes, it often takes 15-20 minutes. I have not been able to discern any real pattern as to how long it takes to find the satellites. For a while, I thought that putting the vehicle in motion before turning the unit on caused the problem, but now I am not sure that that is the case.
On a recent trip through Alabama, it had the satellites, then lost them for about an hour before finding them again.
2. It cannot find a location by road intersection. This would be a helpful feature.
3. Elevation is given in yards ASL. What good is that? I don't know of anyone who uses yds ASL.
4. I am not sure what time zone ETA is in. It appears to be in Pacific Standard Time. I have not found anything that tells for sure what time zone ETA is in or if it can be reset to my local time.
5. Included with the unit is a DVD with instructions and backup maps. That would be fine IF my computer had a DVD reader. They should also offer a CD.
6. The unit sometimes is slow to recognize that I want to take a by-pass around a city rather than going straight through like it wants to do.
As to the company itself, I am not sure what is going on there. The Quick Start Manual contains a Registration and Order Form, but no address on where to send it and no shipping/handling cost table. Also, I sent them an e-mail six weeks ago asking some questions and have yet to receive a reply.
Given the relatively low price for a unit with a 5.6" screen, perhaps I shouldn't expect a lot out of it. However, a little bit of software improvement would make for a lot better unit.

Fine Digital FineDrive 400 4-Inch Portable GPS Navigator Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased this GPS for $400 last November. Overall, I'm happy with it, it is very easy to use and it has been accurate. I don't need a fancy GPS, this one is economical and gets the job done for me. The screen is big and bright, I have it mounted on my SUVs windshield using the provided suction holder, and I have no problem reading the display from my driving position. It is a good unit for the money.

ARKON TTEP129-ST-RVC TomTom EasyPort Removable Swivelt Air Vent Mount Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The Tom Tom comes with the suction mount for the windshield. Tried that but is a real pain to take off when you stop. Don't want to leave the mount attached to the windshield so everyone knows you have a GPS in you car. After a few days I had to find another mount that was out of the way and easy to use. This vent mount is just the thing. I can take the GPS unit off and leave the mount attached to the vent. Can easily re-attach when I'm ready to go. It is just plastic but seems to hold up okay.

Mio MOOV 300 4.3-Inch Widescreen GPS Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I need a GPS for my daugther, who got her driver license recently and have been calling home asking for direction often :-) After surveying the field I narrowed my choices down to: Garmin 260W, TomTom XL-S, and Mio Moov 300. The main selection criteria are:
1. bigger screen
2. text-to-speech
3. all gps functions, none others (e.g. bluetooth)
Since Moov 300 is fairly new and there aren't a lot reviews it is sort of a risky buy. However, since all 3 are pretty much the same functionality-wise, the tie-breaker came down to price. After a couple of weeks, here are some opinions:
Pros:
1. fairly easy to use (never read the manual).
2. find satellites almost instantly (< 15sec), even inside my house. Note that performance might vary, I can only speak from my experience.
3. Good text-to-speech, announce direction in advance. Again, I read some people complained it announced turns too late, but not yet to me. It usually announces twice, once to remind you beforehand, the other when the turn is near.
4. fast re-route
Cons:
1. Battery is weak, less than 2 hours.
2. Sometimes the route is devious.
Overall, I consider it worth the money if you are not too picky.
