Sony NV-U94T nav-u

 

Though the new nav-u has a large screen and is loaded with features, odd routing and a so-so POI system hold it back.

Larger-than-standard 4.8-inch screen. Built-in traffic receiver. Effective mounting bracket. Easy menu system

Relatively limited POI search capabilities. Limited routing options. No vehicle profiles. Bluetooth phone interface didn't automatically reconnect to my cell phone.

The Map view within an active route presents lots of information: In the upper-left corner it displays the remaining distance of your trip and the estimated time of arrival. The lower-left corner shows your speed and the direction of travel. The...

Sony NVU94T GPS is a great value ”

 

This gps is accurate 99% of the time. Shopped around alot and decided on Sony. Would like to see an upgrade that gets decent reviews though. Some of the new roads aren't there. I'm happy with it.

Great GPS

 

I am directionally challenged. I get lost going across the street. This GPS reprograms the route when I make a wrong turn or decide I would rather take another street - and it's almost instantaneous. No comments like 'I told you to go THIS way, you...

Great except no satellite connection

 

The feature like BlueTooth, MP3 and navigation assitance were outstanding But... It took forever to aquire satellites if at all. It made it so bad I took it back and got a different gps with less feature I wanted but the satellite response is much better
