Great value, but not perfect...

Date of Review:  Jan 1, 2008
The Bottom Line: If you are a techie you will love this unit. If all you want is GPS get me from here to there you might want something simpler.
Review: I was introduced to the Mio brand by my friend who showed me his C320 and I loved its looks. I was able to purchase the C520 for just a few dollars more for what I could get the C320 so it was a no brainer for the upgrades of Bluetooth and Text To...

Great for international travel. Mediocre for US.

Date of Review:  Sep 1, 2008
The Bottom Line: For US travels I would suggest buying a different system unless you want to hear the speech guide in a language not found on other units.
 
Review: I own a Garmin Nuvi and this was the second navigation system I bought. I bought it as a gift for someone in Israel and before giving it decided to spend a week to check that it works.
I put both the Garmn and Mio in the car a few times to...

Great Detail

Date of Review:  Mar 27, 2008
The Bottom Line: I would recommend this product to anyone with a lot of traveling in mind great product!
Review: This Mio C520 Car GPS Reciever is a very awesome quality buy. I happened to get this as a gift. I am a military spouse and we travel a lot. So this is a fantastic buy for us considering we travel to a lot of new places all the time. It was a great...

Love & Hate

Date of Review:  Jul 1, 2008
The Bottom Line: This is an incomplete product. There are much easier to use GPS products with the same or more features for less money.
Review: It took me a while to figure out how to use this unit. The MIO website makes the 520 sound real good. I am afraid it is marketing hype. This unit is tough to use. I have read major parts of the manual and I am slowly figuring out "how to". The...

confusing unit

Date of Review:  Dec 2, 2007
The Bottom Line: only buy this unit if you want to suffer.

Mio C520

Date of Review:  Sep 27, 2008
Review: I have never had any other GPS, so I do not have anything to compare it to. However, I had no problem figuring out how to use it. I love the POI feature, and the GPS mapping was about 90-95% accurate. You definitely need to have access to paper...

Overpriced, Outdated & Unreliable Ripoff

Date of Review:  Oct 7, 2009
Review: Overpriced, Outdated & Unreliable Ripoff. I received the Mio Digi Walker C520 as a gift in December 2007 and have used almost 2 years. When I first started using it the data was already out of date and needed to be updated. I went on Mio's website...
