Not ready for prime time

 

The unit sort of works. It is wildly inaccurate indicating direction. The unit is fairly inexpensive, but you get what you pay for. It also takes several minutes to sync up with the satellites. I would not purchase this product again.

This a GPS unit, not a compass

 

This GPS unit is not a compass nor does it have one built in. As with most GPS units, you must be moving for the arrow to point you in the correct direction to go in relation to the direction you are traveling. This is normal for most all GPS devices...

Reasonably sensitive, low cost receiver

Mini GPS receiver

 

An excelent choice for simple gps applications. It requires no calibration and is accurate enough to find places. Takes some time to warmup but it is not a major problem.

Not accurate direction indicator

 

Tracking direction indicator is not accurate, I tested it to get directions back to my house and it gave me misleading directions, it was sometimes off by 180 degrees. I wouldn't trust going hiking or boating with it.

Great emergency tool.

 

I have owned this mini GPS for a month. The very first thing I wanted to know was its accuracy. I compared the coordinates it showed with a Magellan GPS on the ground, and an INS-GPS unit in the air. There is no problem, great. Cold start may take some...
