This GPS is not good
I have used this gps for about 1 month. As far as now, I have big trouble with this product.Maybe I am just not smart enough to use it.There are several problems.
First: sometimes it will spend a lot of time to lock on the satellite signal, > 1 min.
Second: the processor is really slow. very hard to tolerate.
Third: the database of Point of Interest is too small, I even cannot find a nearby Walmart through this gps.
Fourth: the voice system is bad.
I am not able to use any other service from this gps other than the "follow me up" function.
I DO NOT recommend anybody to buy this product.
Major Flaw
I had this unit for about a month before I decided that I had enough. Unless you use (charge) the unit every day, the battery dies and you will have to recalibrate the touch screen every time you use the unit. This one characteristic negates any positive this unit may exhibit.
Don't do it.
I bought it brand new and I will tell you, this thing is piece of junk. It's the equivalent of that 8 Ball toy you shake for your fortune.
Trust me, pass onto another GPS.
The pure seething aggravation you feel for this thing will outweigh the money you save. I can't even in good conscious put it for up sale, because I know the person will ask me for their money back by the next day.
The manufacture's website is total joke. With non-existent customer service. Save for another month and buy a TomTom.
