Digital camera reviews of Navigon 5100 3.5-Inch Portable GPS Navigator
Digital camera Review: Don't know what the problem is in LA...
Summary: 5 Stars
...but in Kentucky this thing works great. I'd never owned a GPS before I got this Navigon as a birthday present a few weeks ago, and for a guy who usually has trouble with technology, it's been great...VERY easy to use. I basically popped it out of the box, slapped it on the mount and started using it. The screen is big and easy to read and it looks really cool (the spoken street name thing is cute too). Not being much of a features guy I can't say I've gotten much into the finer points of what this GPS can do. Even so I'll declare myself 100% satisfied.Digital camera Review: Downgrading origional review from when I first bought this.
Summary: 1 Stars
I've removed my original two star review from when I bought this. After 9 months of use I'm giving this a one star review. I'd give it less if I could.
This GPS is so painful to use it sits gathering dust in my glovebox.
Likes:
Free Traffic.
Attractive looking.
Dislikes:
1. User interface is insanely convoluted.
2. Touch screen requires lots of pressure to work, very frustrating.
3. The buttons on the user interface are stupidly small, combined with a not so sensitive touch screen its barely usable.
4. Boot up time is stupidly long, 10 seconds of which you have to HOLD the power button. Guys, how about a simple on off switch switch!
5. Unit is slow to calculate and respond to user input.
6. Scrolling around maps is difficult at best. Nearly impossible to use for just mapping.
7. Traffic is not displayed in a useful method. Requires multiple button clicks while driving for traffic avoidance.
I could go on with more dislikes, but I get angry just thinking about the frustrations of using this. Save your money and avoid this unit.
Digital camera Review: Easily the best for its category
Summary: 5 Stars
If you want an outstanding navigation unit with great directions that are easy to follow, this is it. It even gives u live traffic updates for free. You just cant beat this little guy. If you want something super fancy, then pay 5 times as much. by the way, the smaller screen size is NOT a problem. It will tell you every turn in planty of time and even tell you what lane to be in.Digital camera Review: Everything delivered as advertised
Summary: 5 Stars
I am happy with this purchase and would recommend this anyday. I received all the items as listed without any defect.Digital camera Review: Excellent GPS
Summary: 4 Stars
Good product, like the traffic information. Like the options that come with it. Takes a little while to get used to it. Recommend it highly.
