Cons: Although this is an exceptional price, the unit is a bit unstable inasmuch that the screen sometimes blanks out or attempts to load up but doesn't quite make it and power has to be interrupted in order to make it load up and find a GPS signal. This is annoying, but once up and running it's great. Hopefully an update will rectify this problem. The unit is also a bit too heavy for the clasp that holds it in position and the unit gradually droops towards the dash, even though the clamp knob is fully tightened. I have to position the unit so it rests on the dash to prevent this. Pros: Excellent price, bought this to replace my TOMTOM GO which just stopped working. Lifetime updates (though only once per year). I like the full features it offers and various colour schemes, plus the voice alerts. I especially like the fact that it shows the speed limit on the roads and that it has the ability to warn, with a voice, when one is speeding. In towns when attention is being paid to traffic all around the vehicle you don't have to keep looking at the speedometer, as it voice guides you in this respect. It has loads of other features which more expensive Sat Navs don't have. Read full review

As the title, this device, in spite of the large 7" screen, is too heavy. It often falls off the CLEAN glass to which it is attached. Also, because of it's weight, and really tightening the mount pivot nuts, it gradually drops vertically when in use. The user interface is far too complex with many features that will never be used. It's a navigation device! Inputting postcodes and destinations doesn't function reliably. The volume, even on maximum, is not loud enough. I don't want to play it through a radio. Be aware that for street/road names/numbers etc. only certain voices will announce them Screen is good, bright and clear. Because of the the poor mounting and volume this device cannot be recommended. Buy cheap, buy twice, as the advice goes. If you expect map updates, don't bother. Any e-mail sent to them is just ignored. Totally unuseable for me. Tried it three times only and chucked it away! Oh, there will be an e-mail offering a £5 discount for a good review. This only applies to purchases elsewhere.Read full review

For the price, it’s a decent purchase. Bought for use in a campervan only, but does the job well although have only used once. Could be a bit better in the volume and entering the destination can be a bit frustrating to begin with but if you’re after a budget device, this should be ok. Screen size good, graphics not brilliant but at the price paid, can’t really grumble. Camper specific devices are more than five times the cost of this, so no contest.

Functionally when plugged into a charger it is a very good satnav, especially at the price. However, there seems to be a problem with the battery. It never fully charges, always taking 0.17A from the charger even after 30hrs on charge. Also it discharges down to a quarter charge after only 30minutes of use. The specification is that it has four hours of usable charge before requiring a recharge. Perhaps the one I have been sold is not brand new, there were some scuff marks on the case and it did not come with a screen protection film. When I complained about this to the retailer they suggested charging it for longer but did offered a full refund if I required one.

I'm impressed with the features size and value of this SATNAV. It has everything my old Garmin had plus more.... I can enter the dimensions of my campervan to avoid low bridges etc, and busy roads can be avoided using the alternative route option. Why pay more !
