![]() In summary, this particular Navman gadget is not my choice. All above mentioned problems are gone with the other brand. I ended up having it refunded at JB Hi Fi with no hassles (thumbs up) and bought a different brand with equivalent or better features (GPS with camera) which seems a better quality and functionally superior. I had it for 3 weeks and spent the last 2 weeks for trouble-shooting. If I type in 8 Charles Street, it takes me to 1 Charles street on the other side. If I type in, say 131 Millet Street, it often takes me to 129 (next door). Navigation itself is OK and easy to use but it often directs me to addresses nearby within 10m or so. They asked me to return the unit for assessment but it will be at my additional cost of postage and time lost. ![]() All failed and they sent me a new charger with traffic antenna but did not fix the problem. #TOMTOM HOME 2.7.6 SOFTWARE#Navman technicians tried to assist with trouble-shooting, software reloading, resetting, recovering, etc. The internal battery is only good for a few minutes on its own even after days of ch. Some menu buttons are too small to tap or does not work unless pressed hard with finger nail. It does not pick several red-light cameras that had been there for a few years already. It often alters for non-existing red-light cameras and speed-checks. Safety alerts are often inaccurate or out of date even with the latest version (2017 map and safety cam) installed. It is not bad when viewed from PC, though. ![]() Video and audio quality are very poor and jerky. If i can be of any more help, please let me know. Could you please advise speeds when this happened? when adhering to speed limits, you should generally get 50-100m notice before needing to make a turn (however, a factory reset would also resolve this) this is why you recieve the warnings from what is above youĨ. however, a GPS is not able to tell if you are above, or below ground. Please be aware, that the GPS signal is not designed to penetrate underground, but can under some circumstances. This issue should be fixed by doing a factory reset. this will depend on various factors including surroundings, other devices, and location.Ĥ.I will note this feedback, and pass it on to our R&D team. however, if the device has been fully charged for 8hrs, this shouldnt cause it to turn off.ģ.sometimes it can be slow to get initial connection. could you advise if the adaptor feels "too" lose when plugged into your cigarette lighter? i believe there is no real "standard" size, so there can be differences in diameter, which can impact how well an adaptor connects. this is helpful for the suitations where the car or truck has a large dash, and the unit mounts far away from the driver.Ģ. Is it unreadable because of how far away it is? Navman do have a heavy duty/long reach mount as an optional accessory. Perhaps my experience explains H-Ns large discount! Not sure I even want dash-cam after this. In fact I'm going to attempt to return it to Harvey-Norman for a replacement Garmin model. Many times navigation advice comes almost too late to make an appropriate turn. Going East lost reception entirely ( I understand radio & GPS are rebroadcast) but when travelling West 2 hours later held reception but warned me of impending railway crossings and red-light cameras above for the entire length.Ĩ. Cannot handle Graham Farmer Underpass in W.A. Many, many false excess speed warnings going past on/off ramps on freeway.ħ. ![]() Often I'm 200 Meyers trim home, turning around the corner roundabout at 5 kph when I'm beeped for exceeding 50 kph. Takes a minute at least to change from day to night & vice versa when starting out morning or night.ĥ. Read more connection while I'm half way down my driveway.Ĥ. I park in a car port but this device still cannot locate satellites and often tells me it has lost. Very, very slow to power on and find GPS satellites. Often it just switched off while using the car adapted - which requires frequent re-inspection as it loosens.ģ. Map quality is OK, but colour choice is limited and street names, locales, etc pretty much unreadable while sitting at the wheel of my Statesman.Ģ. ![]() Quite frankly I'm disappointed in several aspects of this machine.ġ. Recently bought a Navman Myvue Drive GPS /Crash Camera combo. ![]()
