Magellan Maestro 4250, 3250 GPS: REVIEW

July 5, 2008 by Rated4Stars · 8 Comments 

 

Magellan is a long-standing leader in GPS, especially famous for its award-winning RoadMate series and the Hertz NeverLost car navigation system. Though not as dominant as it was several years ago, Magellan continues to produce quality GPS units for the field and the car. Demonstrating their ongoing commitment to innovation, Magellan has rounded out their popular Maestro line with the 3250 and wide-screen 4250, which were among the first aftermarket vehicle GPS systems with voice recognition capability to reach the consumer. Drawing from Magellan’s lengthy track record in the business and building upon the proven Maestro platform, CNET says, "Maestro 4250 is a solid mid-level portable navigation system." We agree.

Garmin nüvi 750, 760, 770, 780 – REVIEW

June 18, 2008 by Rated4Stars · 12 Comments 

 

Garmin has not stopped to rest following its successes with the immensely popular (and deservedly so) nuvi line. With the introduction of the 700 series, Garmin has redefined its top-shelf category, borrowing the sleek good looks of its entry-level nuvi 200 series, but packing it with its high-end features of the 600 series, and then some. The 760 has earned top honors from a number of reviewers, including Editor’s Choice from PC Magazine, which states, "The 760 sports a trimmer, slicker design and adds a number of cool new features and welcome refinements to the top-rated 600 series."

Tom Tom ONE 3rd Edition – REVIEW

June 17, 2008 by Rated4Stars · 4 Comments 

 

Entry-level never looked so good in the vehicle GPS market. TomTom significantly improved upon its already solid-performing and crowd-pleasing ONE (2nd Edition), yet has priced the new TomTom ONE 3rd Edition only slightly higher than its predecessor. The 3rd Edition is well-worth the modest price increase. Like its predecessor, the TomTom ONE 3rd Edition is ultra-portable, easy to use, and sports a bright easy-to-read touch screen. As with the 2nd Edition, the ONE 3rd Edition includes an SD memory card with detailed maps of the United States and Canada. Maps for additional countries are also available for purchase.

We were still breathless after our 5-star review of Garmin’s nuvi 360 when Garmin announced what is much more than just a wide-screen version of the 360. Yes, Garmin has managed to do itself one better with the nuvi 660, with several new features that are smart and elegantly implemented, so much so as to inspire some owners to call it “the iPod of GPS navigation systems.” CNet’s editors say, “the Garmin Nuvi 660 is the ultimate traveler’s tool” and PC Magazine calls it, “the best in the shirt-pocket GPS category.”

TomTom ONE (2nd Edition), XL, XL-S: REVIEW

October 7, 2007 by Rated4Stars · 1 Comment 


 

Slowly but surely, TomTom has been bringing to the United States the same sort of consumer enthusiasm it has achieved in Europe. Though it hasn’t yet toppled market champion Garmin, TomTom’s offerings are hitting attractive price points and offering more and more of the features consumers are seeking in an easy-to-use, stylish unit. The TomTom ONE (2nd edition) is a no-frills, entry-level unit whose competitive pricing and ease of use has made it one of our best sellers. Reviews have been solidly above the four-star level among editorial reviews and owner reviews alike. CNET calls it “…perfect for first-time buyers or drivers who just need a simple solution for getting from point A to point B.”
