There are NO good pints about this dreadful product! Their so-called 'Customer Service' is even worse! They have NEVER and will NEVER relase map updates for their Sat Nav range, (they expect you to buy a new one)! I have been a loyal customer for 35...

Where to start! - A Sat Nav that has NEVER and will NEVER have updated maps issued is POINTLESS and actually potentially DANGEROUS! - I always buy THIS companies equipment but will NEVER, ever buy another another of their products! - What next; a...

Easy to use,gets me to my destination and very helpful on long journeys that are new to me.

I contacted Sony as I needed a map update for this model and cannot find one. I am yet to get a reply, a month later and still waiting. Need a map update and think they no longer do them and expect me to buy a new model.

The Sony sat nav system is a great product for the price and what you get, it is of a perfect size for any car and has a brilliant touch screen function. Overall I have been impressed with the Sony NV-U82 , although only had it a short time it has...

Takes time to register the satellites, hard to get updates for this model now? I think Sony should reconsider upgrades for this model at a reduced cost.

Limited settings to choose from, good for technophobes. Encourages you to learn how to use the sun to estimate direction.

Slow to find satellites - especially when starting from a new location. Many times >15 minutes. Command response is so slow it appears to be not working. No user defined POI. Saved routes + favourites limited and awkward to use. Slow response makes...
