Customer Review: I have no words!
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! :-)
Customer Review: easy to use (NO)
i have not yet been able to find the roads in my area reported problem to
"mio"they say they are not at fault they take their mapping through tele atlas,
to which i have reported a fault in their map of my area so up to now i cannot
