3.5 Stars - Decent device, but there are many better ones out there
GPS navigation devices have come a long way. What used to be exclusive gadgets that only a few could afford has become nearly as ubiquitous as the car stereo. In recent years this trend has only accelerated with the introduction of GPS navigation capabilities to the smartphones. Some of these smartphone GPS solutions are really impressive and give the standalone GPS devices run for their money. However, there is something to be said for having a dedicated device that will do one thing and do it well. That's why I have continued to use the standalone GPS devices, and will likely do so for foreseeable future.
The first thing you notice about this GPS navigator is its size. I knew that 7-inch screen is at least two inches larger than almost any other stand-alone GPS navigation system, but I was still impressed the first time I saw it. Its screen is larger than my Kindle and it's on par with the smaller tablet computers. All this screen real estate helps you see your location...

I can't believe some of the reviews, neither should you
All GPS units have some likes and dislikes of their owners and many of the negative reviewers either have little tech ability, little patience, do not take time to read instructions, and/or are too used to the workings of another make. One GPS device may be good for some people, and not for others. There is no perfect GPS unit and not everyone will agree on what is important. One may work well in one urban community/road area and not in another. Not everyone likes the same things and not everyone is creative or can figure out how to use them. This is a very good unit for the size, money, and functions. Don't have any GPS unit in a real sunny location and don't obstruct your view or look at it too closely while driving; have a passenger use it as none of us should be distracted from driving. I really dislike my TomTom 630GO, the updates, the usability and it doesn't seem to understand eastern Washington, and I really like the Magellan set-up. I have issues with my lexus GPS and with my...
Great if you want a big screen and nothing else.
I was kind of excited when I got this item.
I mean it's a Magellen, it has a huge 7 inch screen. It has lifetime maps and traffic. It is their top of the line model.
Well it has the big screen thing going for it, and that is about it.
The interface is slow and clunky, the touchscreen is not that responsive and you have to press down hard on the screen to make it register.
There is only one voice I could find to use. So if you don't like the voice you are in trouble.
The directions were good but the vocal directions awkward and you are alerted when to turn by a bell or a tone, not a voice, and there is no way to change this.
The color scheme on the screen is also pretty ugly and there is not way to change this either.
One nice feature is that the unit has built in blue tooth so you can pair it with your phone and use the GPS as a speaker phone. Which was nice if you don't have a headset or the speakerphone...
