Expert review by : Ross Catanzariti (goodgearguide.com.au)

Navman MY50T GPS unit

 

A mid-range GPS with a large display and built-in traffic support

Design, choice between glide or tap UI, included traffic subscription, large display, 3D junction views, lane guidance

No Bluetooth hands-free, overzealous school zone warnings, map is missing some red light cameras and 'no right turns', screen transitions are a little sluggish, not all phones compatible with Bluetooth, TMC antenna is built into charger not the actual...

A large screen and a revamped user interface make the Navman MY50T effortless to use, but the lack of Bluetooth hands-free and overzealous school zone warnings spoil the party. There is a lot to like about this mid-range GPS, but it's far from perfect.

Swipe to scroll now merely an option. Traffic messaging at a low price. Larger than usual 4.7-inch screen.

Bluetooth, but not for hands-free. More illegal turns than we'd like. Overzealous school zone warnings.

Thanks largely to the large 4.7-inch screen, good looks and demotion of swipe to scroll, the MY50T is a serious contender. Now, if only the Bluetooth was for hands-free communication...

I noticed my Navman 50T stopped receiving SUNA traffic updates for Sydney in August 2010. Please check before buying if TMS life time subscription is still available for this model.My next GPS will not be a Navman, ever..

Large screen

Road speed limit indicator not available, Traffic updates stopped after 6 months, prolific errors with invalid left , right and U turns even for major arterial roads

ditto to all of the above criticisms. I want to thank all the reviewers. I thought I must have developed early onset dementia after trying to use the bluetooth.
