- Good points:
- Don't want to be totally negative but no really outstanding good points except price reasonable and the Desktop software seems to work OK.
- Bad points:
-
The ongoing speech instructions which may be given after the initial instruction can occasionally be after the manoeuvre had already taken place, this possibly could cause confusion.
The speed camera warning sometimes gives you insufficient time to SAFELY check your speed and adjust if neccessary.
The switch on the top of the Mio could be better!

Les, Penkridge / Stafford. Occasional user
- Good points:
- As above
- Bad points:
- Not sure of length of time for holding charge when not in use. Needs to be longer in my opinion. I did not check before I bought It. When in use not using the car charger it said 3 hours, but that is not long enough when walking with it as a padestrian.
