Review after first use
I hate vague reviews so will try to do a decent one. First, I've had a TomTom GPS for some time so hard not to compare features but will try to do so. I only used the GPS feature so cannot give any input on the other features.The manual is very sparse so don't expect to get much there. Expect to search through the on screen menus and options.The GPS though was awesome. The screen was easy to see and read. There were many available options to make things easier. It took a bit of getting used to for me when entering addresses and destinations but once I was on the road, it worked really well.Now for the not so good. I wish it came with an option to mount on the dash and not just on the windshield. I also found that if I stopped and powered the system down when getting fuel or for other extended stops, I had to many times press the rest button to get the system going. It was a small pain but for the savings with this GPS, it was easily overcome. After resetting the device, it started up without issue are returned to where it was before powering down and I was on my way.Overall, I was impressed with this gps and have already recommended to a friend. I don't travel long distances very often so this was a great deal and hope to use for many years to come.

Real problems
We just returned from a trip on which we attempted to use this unit. If I didn't already know the way to get to our destination and back home, we would have been lost. I have listed just a few of the problems with this unit.1. Printed instructions print is too small and difficult to read.2. Instructions are the worst I have ever seen.3. The unit does not respond when you try to access the navigation. You have to turn the unit on & off several times to get it to respond.4. After you get a destination entered, the map draws a straight line between starting and ending points. NO highways defined.5. Screen difficult to read in shaded sun light.6. Too many apps.

BUYER BEWARE Spend the extra money and buy a Garmin
Buyer beware. If you are looking for a low priced navigation device spend your money on a road atlas.the advertising is very misleading. The product information says that the seller offers a " 100% satisfactory 90-day worry free money back guarantee and lifetime warranty" and they will reply (to concerns) within 24 hrs. I contacted them about one week ago and have had no reply as of this writing. In summary the product is hard to use, the manual does not correspond to the screens on the device. The screen washes out in the daylight. The product features says it has daytime and nighttime screen settings but the manual doesn't cover that and the setting on the device doesn't cover it either. Instead they off a clip-on sun shield which is cheap and fall off when you touch the screen. Entering addresses is cumbersome and seems to take multiple tries to get the address entered. If it has a 'home' feature I have not been able to find it. The timing of the intersection commands are not properly sync'd. When driving I am halfway through the intersection and it is telling me to turn in 100 feet, confusing when you are in a unfamiliar area. Bottom line I put it all back in the box and bought a Garmin, which has been very easy to set up and use. Since the company's 100% satisfaction, 90-day worry free money back guarantee is non-existent I will throw this thing away so that I won't have to look at it and be reminded what a waste of money it was. Very dissatisfied, I would rate it a negative 5 if I had the option.

turn signal is off by about 50f to 100 feet
If it wouldn't have the problem of telling you to turn to late then I would say it is a fairly good GPS. It does not have a lot of current streets but as a backup if you just want directions it could work but a very big problem that it tells you to turn after the fact. I thought it was just my unit so they told me to try another unit and the same thing happened so therefore I will be returning both units. If they fix up this problem it would make a great GPS

Plan on returning this.
Don't waste your time or money on this product. It's difficult to follow the directions in the manual, and cumbersome to enter an address for navigation. When trying to set up the time, it would advance only in 5 minute increments. I would have given it 0 stars if that had been an option.
