Binatone F430 Automotive GPS Receiver

My old sat nav a 'nav go' from 2008 was doing my head in so thought i would try a new one. What a breath of fresh air this handsome new unit is, the display is large, clear and very responsive, the search etc is lightning fast, although it takes a couple of mins to find a signal from first start up, but you can use this time to input your destination. Total bargain, get one while they're on offer.

Have used it about 5 times for journeys where I'm only partly familiar withe the route. Maps are well out of date, some roads that were opened over a year ago are not recognized - and others that have been closed are still showing, I've been sent on the 3rd exit off a roundabout instead of the second on at least three occasions already! You can't update it either, although I think if you buy a mini sd card you can buy more maps but this stops this from being a cheap satnav. Sound is bad and always needs to be set at max volume. However does get you to your destination in the end - but not always by the quickest or shortest route, so very frustrating at times. I wouldn't recommend this product or brand.

A real bargain! has all the basic requirements, easy to use and very clear in telling you instructions!
Be careful thou, shortest and fastest option are completetly different, took me 1 1/2 hours for a 36 min journey using shortest, perfect when put in fastest!
overall, a great little sat nav for the price!

I found this very easy to use and understand as a complete techno phobe i would recomend i like to way that you can simulate your route before you leave also the clear verbal instruction also the graphics box on the left allerting you to ajunction approaching very clear.i would definatley reccommend this .

Think the maps may be a bit dated, since it showed a road that has been there for ages as a field.......! May need to download new ones. Otherwise, easy to use and to understand. Very good value for money. I'm quite happy with it.
