What are the alternatives?

I had the choice again Falk F12 to acquire or another.

Well who the election will be spoiled.

After reading of other Rezesionen to other devices, I decided again for a Falk, even if it is not the perfect GPS units.

This product has struck me negatively:
1. Display reflects extreme sunlight, so you tend to be announced moves than by sight. On the other hand I bought a film from 3M and already it works better.
2. Cable: is very fast to be expected in the winter with a broken cable Due to the danger of this type of cable. A Sprialkabel would be appropriate here better. For the supplied cable is pretty long, so you can use the navigation in a Sharan.
3. glass pane is not flush with the frame, thus sees the stylish Navi not look so stylish.
4. speakerphone better not use except possibly in the car on its own have a very good sound wall, but which mobile phone with speakers already provides a good quality let other Navigeräte?
2. GPSfindung may take up to 5 minutes, especially if you come from a garage.
3. Stay away from the issue of satellite images are not worth the money, and who has razor sharp images here expected miscalculated
4. Long charging time for the transfer from the computer to the GPS, no longer appropriate

Positives:
1. unit has a rugged appearance and is not old fashioned, possibly find is other device too bulky, na is indeed no business card or phone
2. announcements so far clearly, you should choose here due to the better understanding of the women's language.
3. Route recalculation obey not lightning fast, but be careful if the device quickly calculates a new route to be traced back to the old way, it chooses before a road (at least in Switzerland) where transits are not allowed.
4. voice announcement regarding the guidance works beautifully
5. support is great, but beware after two years can ever loosen the magnet a bit
6. TMC Pro
7. Map Update 2 years
8. Blitzer alert

On the whole, I am satisfied, but it could be even better.

What are the alternatives:
Garmin: War in the consideration was verworden due to the price / performance ratio and due to the remark that TMC and GPS-making, which should take a long time I could not bring myself. Furthermore, when Livetime map update very interesting that this can be unilaterally terminated when this Garmin no longer supported or not supported by the card manufacturer this.
Navigon: Had the before years ago one, but how this company is carrying out the support beneath contempt, because you get from other users who have reported an error
Support email. This is called dan Privacy and otherwise the support is very very poor. I also had to buy 2 cable, due to cable breakage, the holder is primarily intended not for small cars, so maybe you should buy a shorter one. Holder is not by magnetic method but by a Klein fummliges click.
TOMTOM: Well if you want to pay for all extra, then you go with it very well. For me, this was not an option because I need not live like weather service, free parking and real realtime road situation. For whom these gimmicks are important, should access here, but please think about it the offered Live service incl. Is, is usually for 12 or 18th
Month incl.
Becker: looked to me a bit dowdy and unfortunately the new models are not yet out, otherwise I would have possibly chosen a Becker.

So then a lot of fun
