User Reviews for Magellan Software Magellan RoadMate 700

  • Reviewed by: jkoshnitsky

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Accurate and shows step by step directions if the signal is lost (in tunnels, etc.)

    Weaknesses: Docking station can be better (hard to attach the GPS) and no battery power.

    Overall Evaluation: After using Garmin Street Pilot III, Navman iCN510, and Palm GPS product, this is by far the best. After almost a week, I am quite pleased with this product. You can get it for under 500 bucks on eBay or at BJ's Wholesale Club. You can also get a SW upgrade for $99 that will give you all the functionality of the 760 model costing few hundred more.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Good navigation, graphics, voice, very easy to use.

    Weaknesses: Not very customizable, hissing sounds, sound stops working, touchscreen stops working.

    Overall Evaluation: Overall product design is good. But I believe there are some serious quality control issues. It makes hissing sound straight out of the box. Many times the sound just stops and you have to reboot to have sound again. Once the touchscreen stopped working.And I've only had it for a couple of hours...Overall: If you are lucky enough to get a properly functioning unit, it is a good buy.
