*** HD Traffic
Every two to three minutes to update the traffic-flow data via the integrated GSM module. Based on these data, the device then provides an alternative route to unless there is a time saver. However, I do not use alternate routes, if it is only a two to three minute savings, because very often these mini jams dissolve very quickly on its own again.
*** Bracket
Well thought out and very easy to use. No leverage is used by the holder to draw, but a turning wheel. The display itself is amazing securely fixed by magnets on the mount, is so quick to install and solve again. Even the cable is attached by magnets and has dankenswert right off, so the driver.
*** Display
A large, clear and fast reacting display without significant weaknesses
*** Voice Control
Pretty simple and pretty accurately, but plays in my everyday life rather a subordinate role, because alone with the voice control (without the unit ever touching) can it not be controlled, that means you should only standing use to enter a new destination.
*** Parking
Come to the destination closer parking are offered. This is quite handy.
*** Blitzer alert
I love this service. During the trip, you can easily add a stationary or mobile costs case, if it has not already reported by other participants. Before the critical distance you will then receive an acoustic warning and because such Blitzer be yes only and course set up at accident black spots, this warning function contributes greatly to driving safety for all road users in.
What I did not like
--------------------------
*** The update feature.
Actually, they could be easily and practically to use in theory, it is not in practice. There are apparently more Downloads displayed as you can actually use and all selected at once and download is not possible at the moment. Thanks to the mention of another reviewers turned out that you have to select and download updates individually, then it works. In addition, the website seems to be the visitor traffic not always grown, disconnections do occur.
*** Size display
The display is indeed wonderfully large dimensioned to read and operate, but performs exactly this size means that it blocks a significant portion of the view to the outside. I bypassed this problem by I attached the bracket to the display of the radio. Works quite well, although I see now whether my phone is not connected, nor the time or the temperature) but my view outside is untroubled again.
*** Lane Assistant
Actually, very useful and pretty much his early fade bothers quite. Already several hundred yards before he turns on sometimes and it is already happened to me before that I got in a hectic situation the wrong exit. Fortunately, you can hide it by tapping the screen again.
*** Actuality
A Navi is only as good as his current cards. A development area (more than half a year existent) was not recognized. Be provided at all public what extent such data by municipalities are available I can not answer.
*** Oops process
Leaving a predetermined distance, it takes a few seconds for the device to realize that you no longer is on the right track. Instead, it turns virtually from cheerfully while driving straight ahead. On a highway verschmerzlich, in a crowded traffic situation but quite annoying. The device should here more the GPS data rely as its forecast.
*** HD Traffic and Co.
The useful Live services (including HD Traffic) are initially free, but they cost money. Firstly, of course, on the other hand disturbing. Twitter and the like are more gadgets for my needs, but are likely to pose to one or the other a real utility. No depreciation is why.
*** Guide
So a complex device would really deserve a detailed, printed manual. Much can be explained though by itself, but not everything.
Conclusion
-----
A quite high quality and useful Navi with much positive but unfortunately also negative characteristics. The trouble is that the negative points would have been perfectly preventable. What remains is the feeling to hold a beta version in the hands, which has great potential and hopefully can be used by future updates its full possibilities. Therefore, in this high-end segment is currently only enough for three stars. A comparison with other devices of the lower price class needs it nevertheless not to shy away from here, it is very often much better.
