Anyone who has ever been lost in a strange place, knows how such a situation can affect the bad mood. With help come navigations, which can pull you out of the worst predicament. See which ones we consider the best!
A good navigation is one that has a large map base, leads precisely and has a long period of updating new roads. It is also good if it has information about traffic intensity and points where speed cameras are located. These are the navigations we have chosen for our ranking. Not only well driving, but also offering as many useful features as possible.
The Garmin DriveSmart, is a multi-tasking navigation device. It has a 6.95-inch touchscreen with a resolution of 1024 × 600, plus it has lane assist, highway exit service, or route avoidance (like highways or toll sections). On board is the Garmin Real Directions feature, which is designed to guide the driver not only by street names, but also to suggest characteristic points of specific places. Additionally, the device is equipped with Bluetooth, so it can also serve as a hands-free set. Besides, there is also WiFi for map updates, which are free for life
The Mio has maps provided by TomTom, which guarantees good navigation quality. Moreover, it has a comfortable magnetic mount, so you don’t have to struggle with precise placement of the device.
