Navman s80 |
Reliable performer, mine is two years old
More customisation options and better menu operation than the new platinum series. |
Screen glare
Difficult to get the right balance, ie, shortest vs quickest route. |

Good all round unit, quick to reroute, easy menu, has bluetooth so you can use your phone for hands free, good size screen, able to view it in sunglare.
Text to speech is brilliant, but use the aussie TIM voice. |
Lacks speed and red light camera warnings although it comes with them loaded they are out of whack and it gives the icon but no warning sounds on a lot of sites. Some maps are wrong( more a sensis problem) |

Large Screen, Clear instructions. Fast |
Weak signals (can be overcome by external antena),
doesnt show names of ALL streets when in map mode (not giving directions). |

Navman S80 works well and has a clear voice guidence, easy to use, light with a good screen |
I find it will not allow me to add POIs or Nav Pix to the main memory. This ia the reason I chose a navman, (Wrong choice)
I have been on the phone to Navman (Australia) Several times and waited up to 1/2 hour and gave up, I have emailed tech support four weeks ago and stil NO RESONCE.
I would never buy a Navman product again just on thier extreem lack of service.
Iam very forgiving, but this is unforgivable for a major company |

This new box grabs the satellites much faster than my old unitit worked right out of the box |
Spoken street names only worked first use now they dont work and I can find no place to reactivate them. really poor support. |
