I have no words!,

This review is from: Navman Mio C220 SatNav - UK & Ireland (Electronics)
Absolute brilliance. I saw 1 bad review, and vaguely suspect that's Garmin's notorious PR people...
Here's the skinny...this is my THIRD GPS system, by a slight margin the cheapest, and invariably the best. 1. The first was TomTom mobile on a Nokia 6680 (all in 250 quid-ish) which was reasonable, but no touch-screen and a small screen.... but still does the job. 2. Finally bit the bullet and bought a Garmin. Read a lot of positive's about Garmin and decided to buy a Nuvi, that set me back about 400 quid. I was pleasantly surprised, as it had a nice touch screen and performed the job, A to B. 3. My Garmin got nicked, so I bought a Mio C220....no mp3/handsfree bells and whistles, gps pure and simple...it cost about a quarter of the Garmin, so wasn't expecting much.... Was I blown away!! The interface is two generations ahead of TomTom and three generations ahead of Garmin. The mapping is flawless. They have East European maps, so you can drive to croatia with these things, maps being teleatlas and cheaper than iether TomTom's or Garmin's. I thought it was a 'budget buy', but it beat Garmin and TomTom hands down, in terms of usability, portability, screen brightness, GPS reception, speech synthesis, POI's and more. Honestly, I can't think of a single positive of Garmin or TomTom compared to Mio within this price range (except the tomtom 720 has speech recognition, admittedly with faults). This obscure little Belgian company has just thrashed the big boys... You might be satisfied with a Garmin, but after you use a Mio for a week you can never go back to Garmin...and before you ask...no, I'm in no way affiliated to Mio! :-)

DONT BUY THIS!,
By info-tech-trade.co.uk (Gwent) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Navman Mio C220 SatNav - UK & Ireland (Electronics)
Mio stopped updating the maps for this model in 2007 so you will just be buying an expensive paper weight.

good value for money,
This review is from: Navman Mio C220 SatNav - UK & Ireland (Electronics)
this product was almost half the price of many of the others I looked at and I expected it to be very basic. I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of features on it, it does everything I need. Excellent value for money.
