First, in general. The scope of supply is neat, the navigation device comes along with charging cable and windshield mount neatly packed.
After unpacking, I first connected the navigation on the PC and brought up to date on the corresponding Garmin software, the firmware as well as the maps. Since there were no problems.
In operation I have, however, after 2 weeks of daily use found some weaknesses that bother me.
The main task of Navis is a route planning with multiple addresses and then abzuklappern in optimal order.
Entering the address is super easy and intuitive, so you have entered many addresses in a few minutes from Navi. If one considers this is that the first address is selected as a starting point and you therefore initially his current position stored in the route, and a relatively good route is searched. Unfortunately, this is not always the best route, because if I know another way to a destination and take this, I sometimes even can save time retract a few minutes. That's better! When one has arrived at the first address says the Navi. one has arrived which indeed is true. For the Navi to go from here to the next address. Now, if you turn off the car and remove the key, the navigation will automatically after 15 seconds in standby mode. If now, however, starts again, the navigation system has been removed, the next address is actually from the route guidance and makes the above next. That's a No!
From the position detection ago the device is very fast. Only here and there is again a point of criticism. If I drive a different route than the Navi given and recognizes the Navi either lightning fast and calculates the route to, or I just go next to the Naviroute ago and the Navi says nothing, shows the correct position next to the route but in the street Description in the upper part are the waypoints for Naviroute. A very strange behavior.
The secondary functions of Navis is yet to say that the Bluetooth hands-free works well and you will be relatively well understood and understands itself super. Other features of Smartphone Link functions as traffic updates or fuel prices I have not tested, since one it must additionally acquire the device and I initially wanted to test in detail the Navi.
