Customer Reviews

Just buy a real GPS.......
I can not even tell you how disappointed I am in it. It isreally hard to see how anyone would sell this as a finishedproduct. It takes 5 minutes to pickup a signal, then it looses thesignal if you move around. As a bonus,... I sent mine back and got aGarmin eTrex from Amazon to connect to my Visor Deluxe.....not as tinybut it actually works. The HandyGPS is just not suitable for any realusage. I mean, it wont even work in a car! Come on! END

Total waste of money
I also had nothing but problems. Could not maintain a lock to track position even while walking around my yard, forget about moving around in a car. It simply devoured my Visor's batteries. Took 5 minutes to even get a lock to track position which was immediately lost when I moved. Their customer service at the manufacturer was non-existent, they would refund the cost of the unit but not the $... shipping. Even argued that it was not defective as they has "tested" it when it came back to them. Do yourself a favor and wait for the next GPS module to come out.

Another product return
I'm in the process of sending mine back now. My luck wasn't even as good as the previous reviewer's. After over an hour of trying, I still haven't even managed to establish contact with a single satellite. Nexian support has been essentially worthless, just telling me it takes "3-5 minutes, and I must be in open air and not near any buildings". I live in a city and travel to a lot of cities on business. A GPS unit that won't function in an urban setting is of no value to me.
