Average performance for low price. Be prepared to take the scenic route.

Pros Best value. Says street names. Reliable. Portible. Low cost.
Cons Likes the Scenic Route. Needs more POIs. Slow on highway exits.
Recommended it? Yes

NOTE - After using this unit for 6 months, I have to say that I must change my initial review of this product, which was very positive.

I have had 2 expensive GPS units stolen from me in under a year. (The first, theives looked for the suction cup mark on my car in a hotel parking lot, broke... Read full review »

Why Spend more for a TOMTOM ONE?

Pros Price, quality, ease of use, accuracy of maps, look, size of screen
Cons Low volume sound.
Recommended it? Yes

Look, I am a cheapskate and I usually get the cheapest version of whatever and then I end up getting ripped off. This time was different and so refreshing that for $129 bucks that this unit performed perfect right out of the box!

I got in my car stuck the holder to the window. The holder... Read full review »

Piece of junk

Pros Compact, fits in pocket, good sound volume even with open windows, inexpensive
Cons In accurate database, limited POIs, non-intelligent routing
Recommended it? No

I've been using this device for about 10 months and have been repeatedly frustrated by it. It seems to lack even basic points of interest. Yesterday, my son and I were headed to a state park about 75 miles away. I assumed it would have this POI no problem. It would not find it by name, zip code, or... Read full review »

Great budget GPS that does everything

Pros price, features, easy to use
Cons cheap plastic-bulky feel, charger placement
Recommended it? Yes

This GPS unit has lots of features and is an excellent deal for the price. The casing is a little bit bulky and has a cheap plastic feel to it but it seems like it will hold up to anything it's needed for. The included mounting arm is also a little bit bulky and for some reason they decided to... Read full review »

I love my Mio

byjsak Nov 30, 2007
7 Helpfuls 8 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros ease of use, maps are very accurate
Cons weak volume, sometimes sends you through neighborhoods for no reason.
Recommended it? Yes

I have had my Mio for the better part of a year. The job I have requires me to make up to 45 different stops per day. So I actually USE this. I received this unit as a gift and was hesitant to use it at first. I was lost in a rural area and had it with me and decided to give it a try. It got me out... Read full review »

Pros Features - lot more than Garmin
Cons None that I've found.
Recommended it? Yes

I've had 2 Garmin products and thought they were the best - still use one in the wife's car. I get lost too so I wanted a basic, cheap unit and I've been very impressed, I think I prefer it to the Garmin!!

It's easy to use with lots of features including auto zoom which is good when... Read full review »

The maps lead the way!

bybeaches89 Jan 17, 2008
6 Helpfuls 7 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Accurate Maps and Easy to use!
Cons None
Recommended it? Yes

This unit is very easy to use! The maps are so accurate that I rely on them rather than my own sense of direction or other directions given to me. Sometimes I don't even look at the GPS to see my next turn, I just listen to the voice and it helps me get to where I need to be every time! Read full review »

Good for the $ but.......

byflavioguy May 20, 2008
5 Helpfuls 6 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Loud voice Clear display - good display brightness Usability is good - not great
Cons Crashes WAY too often No way to upgrade software online
Recommended it? No

I've owned this unit since Dec. 2007. It works well most of the time and is quite accurate. Unfortunately the software crashes far too frequently and calling tech support didn't really resolve the issue. I reboot often. Functionally, it works well and the controls/functionality are good but could... Read full review »

Doesn't catch GPS signal most of the time

Pros Text-to-speech, small size, customer service.
Cons doesn't catch GPS signal most of the time, so no use of other features
Recommended it? No


Pros: only GPS with text-to-speech at this price range. Small and compact. Customer service helpful, but useless!

Cons: doesn't catch GPS signal most of the time, even after resetting the GPS as customer service rep recommended. Actually doesn't work about 70% of the time. No use for... Read full review »

Pros SiRFstar III. Text to Speech. Low Price. Compact.
Cons Weak volume. Instruction manual. Inefficient routing avoids highway sometimes.
Recommended it? Yes

EDIT: I just realized that mine is a MIO Digiwalker C230.

This is my 4th GPS. 2 Garmins. 1 Tom Tom (short time only). Now Mio. I use my GPS religiously as my sense of direction is terrible, almost handicap-like. And my profession requires meeting lots of clients. At least 4 years with a... Read full review »
