Cobra Nav One 4500

 

A 5-inch screen and integrated live traffic data set Cobra's NavOne 4500 apart, but the routes it generates are disappointing.

Large 5-inch screen. Excellent Points-of-Interest database. Integrated live traffic data.

Limited routing options. Routes generated seemed less optimal than routes to same destinations generated by competing products.

Cobra NAV ONE 4500

 

Talk about seeing the big picture. Cobra Electronics' NavOne 4500 portable GPS navigation system ($929.95 direct) sports a 5-inch, 320by-240 pixel touch screen that makes it a lot easier to see your desired route at a glance. The device includes a...

The NavOne 4500's 5-inch screen and integrated live traffic data set it apart from other GPS devices, but its lack of routing options and indirect route suggestions are disappointing.

Cobra NavOne 4500 review

 

Cobra NavOne 4500

The Cobra NavOne 4500 features a large screen, an accurate receiver, and a quick satellite lock. It also has a traffic receiver, but you must live in a serviceable city to take advantage of it.

The Cobra NavOne 4500 occasionally suffers from slow route calculations, and it's heavy.

Real-time traffic updates, highly detailed maps, and a beautiful 5-inch color touch screen give the Cobra NavOne 4500 bragging rights as one of the hottest vehicle-navigation systems around.
