At Smarter.com, we aim to ensure we give you the most sound buying advice possible. With our 'Cumulative Product Rating' system, in order for a product to receive a rating score, it must have a minimum number of ratings to qualify.
This system is not intended to diminish the value of products with a low number of ratings and reviews, they're great, and hopefully very helpful, but if you want our advice, we want to make sure that the product you're thinking of buying has been rated and reviewed by enough shoppers like you to be a valuable indicator of product quality.

Mag support is terrible. Map update doesn't work. Support is India and they promise and don't deliver. Don't waste your money and buy something with online continuous map updates.
PROS: Portable unit
CONS: maps out of date/poor support/poor signal acquisition

PROS: Easy to operate
CONS: Maps are about 10 years old
