Customer Review

Watching from reading the reviews ... Amazon puts here the reviews of 3 devices together.

2569 - less cards and no voice control!
2599 - more maps and real (and very good !!!) Voice Control
2699 - as in 2599 only bigger

I hope this helps one or the other because I had the first appointed me in 2569 because I thought it also has voice control ...

Update 03/02/2014:

Unfortunately, the device goes back ...
The device is actually exactly what I was looking for. Unfortunately, it has glaring weaknesses in the navigation announcements and advertisements. Thus, it is useless for me ... The announcements often come far too late and the display of the lane assistant and announcements to the tracks that you can drive or to the next turn are simply wrong.
Examples:
- "Take one of the two right lanes, then turn right" at this point but you can only use the far right lane to turn ...
- I turn as indicated by a road to another from ... Right after the announcement: "1.5 km, turn right" right after that an announcement: "1.5 km, turn right, then turn left. " ok ... two announcements sequentially and unnecessary early but then ... I go the allowed 70 km / h and wait when the Navi prompts you to turn ... 300 M before: nothing ... 200 ... 100 ... 50 ... still nothing 20m previously: "turn right now" Ouch ... either one makes a full braking or drives past unnecessarily ... or one constantly keeps 1.5 km long tacho or navigation in mind. Since at this track is several streets depart right an announcement 1.5 km voher and then only 20 meters previously unusable for me. This is noticed in known ways and I did it then tested several times .. often came only an announcement and also inakzeptabl late. Often as described above a very early and then just too late ... In unknown territory might yet on unlit roads at night so I would like not to navigate ...
Since the device is otherwise really great, I forgive generous 2 stars. For while this is the only shortcoming of me in the short time (one week) is noticed, but it is and will remain the main function of Navis to lead me safe and not to force me constantly eyes on the screen instead of on the road to have ...

Otherwise shall continue what I originally wrote ...

Original Review:

Especially the voice control is awesome ... I recommend everyone that money to pay for it ... In addition to addresses, favorites and POI's is thus also call via speakerphone and controlling certain functions possible. And for me it works flawlessly even with background noise and music while driving at 120 km / h (little louder talk but must then already screaming was not necessary ...)

With the phone (Mate 7) works flawlessly. Phonebook is automatically updated each time you connect. Call a contact using voice commands also work right away. Previously had a Becker and that was the horror in this respect ...
Per SmartLink app you can also send the address from the phone to the navi. Very convenient!

DAB + was on my testing so far always available (Hannover-Country / Schaumburg) the cover and the amount and quality of information can tomtom but in my opinion, better. However, TomTom offers the 5000 / 6000keine Bluetooth connection and to acquit etc., which is why I decided for Garmin. The traffic information system from TomTom Garmin is to secure the second best and enough for me.

The directional arrows I would have liked bigger and be the next and next but also displayed in rapid succession changes of direction. Not only the next.
The settings of the display while driving on the display I would want a bit more diverse but that is already at a high level ... grumble

The low resolution turns out in practice to be perfectly adequate for me.

After two days of intensive testing, I am so far fully excited. Of course you can each navi do even better but the bottom line is this navi for my personal needs the best that I know! My previous Becker Professional 50 (see my review there) had some nice features, but was inferior to Miles in many respects.

In my view, unconditional recommendation. (Of course, no longer after the update from 3.2.)
