    Exactly what I needed. I paired this with a BC-30 camera to add rear-view capability to an older car. The GPS and traffic features were an added bonus!

    Works great as a hands free device if you have an older vehicle. The mapping portion sometimes takes you in an indirect route instead of direct at times in certain areas. Overall a good device to have and use.

    I love it has a speed limit icon, it advises the driver of the speed limit. I also like that it updates automatically when it’s hooked with your WiFi.

    If you need a portable GPS, this is the one to get. Screen is so clear and turn by turn directions are as accurate as it gets.

    Great replacement for my previous Garmin. My only complaint is that there is no soft case, and the clip for the window mount is difficult to unclip in a hurry in the dark, compared to my last Garmin

    Have to be very specific in searching for addresses. Here in Texas it does get overheated being mounted on windshield and will make a distorted sound and sometimes shuts completely off until it cools down. Would recommend to friend with a warning for it getting too hot.

    It is very good to use. Clear voice and easy to understand for instruction. If the voice is louder a little bit, this is perfect. Liontlq
