Magellan Maestro 4200 4.3-Inch Widescreen Portable GPS Navigator

In general, like all products from Magellan, this device is equipped with a excellent and clear interface which is simple to use. You no need any manual to get started, this unit is very intuitive. The dimension of the display screen is wonderful. The only weakness point that why I didn’t give 5 stars because unlike many types Magellan that I know, you cannot activate the device to speak the names of the streets. It just informs “right” “left”, etc., and the distance.

For only $100, this unit is the finest GPS you can buy. But you must go to the Magellan website to upgrade the firmware to the latest version 4.7, to get benefit from faster computation, faster for everything.

The features are sufficient for almost everything. The navigation feature, I really like it because it guides you with great prudent. It informs you to prepare for a next turn at 0.5 miles in advance, and shows a split view that helps you to get an idea of what the streets will be at the turn time. Also plays an alert sound, when you come near the turn.

Minus

  1. The map is outmoded, but it is well for 90% of the time unless you live in a speedily expanding areas.
  2. Another CON is that it takes around 4-5 minutes to get the satellite signal. And if it gathers enough signal, and power it off, about 10 minutes later turn it on again, it still need time to get enough signal.

In short, it is good for the price. I will recommend all to buy Magellan Maestro 4350, when they are ready to pay $ 75 more. Magellan Maestro 4350 has many more features, and up-to-date map.
