User Reviews for Navigon Navigon 2100 Max

Strengths: Simple, accurate, easy to use, reality view, this is just one awesome piece and i'll tell you why

Weaknesses: Some screens dont have a back button, but there is a simple work around.i wish it had bluetooth, but for this price, i cant expect that

Overall Evaluation: okay, heres why I think you should pay more weightage to this review.I have used Garmin, Navigon, TomTom, Mio and then Navigon again all on trial, yep as i wanted to get something that works like a true GPS and is value for money. I bought Nagivon to keep it this time. Why do you need a GPS. Take you to the destination in the best route (based on settings ofcourse). While driving it guides you flawlessly, without scope for confusion and missing a turn because it was late or you didnt understand. you dont want to spend a lot of time deciphering the screen. Recalculating the route happens without a hitch. I dont know what rikcarl is talking about...never had a problem.Nagivon does this brilliantly. I am a huge fan of this. You will never be disappointed.

Strengths: Big screen

Weaknesses: Live traffic update doesn't work at all. Poor mapping software.

Overall Evaluation: Do not waste your money on this one. You know the saying you get what you pay for? Well that phrase is sooo true on this one. You would think you're getting a great deal until you actually use this unit. Then you would think to yourself it's worth only $80.00 with tax and shipping. This unit froze on me while doing a re-route calculation. Trust me, your're better of getting a Garmin or a Tomtom.

Strengths: Routing is very accurate, TTS is loud and clear. Lane Assist and Reality View features are very useful

Weaknesses: none I have seen yet

Overall Evaluation: Navigon Max 2100 has a 4.3" LCD screen that is much better than the smaller ones I have used before. The maps are very accurate and the Text to Speech directions are very loud and easy to understand. I have found the Lane Assist and Reality View features very useful for a safer drive. I have yet to try the add-on services but I am very optimistic about them. Definitely a great buy!

Strengths: Compact, Easy to set up, Easy to read,good sound quality, Acquires satellites quickly in open areas

Weaknesses: Acquires satellites slowly in major cities, Difficult menus, Inaccurate, Flimsy mounting, Short battery life

Overall Evaluation: I bought this mainly for a trip to Washington DC/Maryland area and future trips to other states. I thought this device was extremely easy to set up and it acquired the satellite super fast in just about any place. It got me where I needed to go with not too much fuss. Although I think it's worth the price, the menus were somewhat difficult to navigate and the system works much better in rural areas than the city. She's just a bit slow on getting out the next direction in time while traveling in the city. I found that driving in the city, it really took a combination of actually observing road signs and paying attention to the Navigon.

Strengths: Compact, Easy To Set Up, Simple Controls, Easy Menus, Secure Mounting, Long Battery Life, Easy To Read, Acquires Satellites Quickly, Reliable Performance

Weaknesses: Cheap mount

Overall Evaluation: I recently started covering the Portland, OR area. If you have ever driven around there, they have some very unusual placements of on and off ramps. You'll be in a residential area going 25mph, and poof, an on ramp. I was using MS Streets and Trips and looking around and down at the maps, wondering if I missed a turn.No more. The Navigon 2100 is awesome. The 3D is like your seeing the actual road on the screen. It even figures your ETA for your destination and automatically updates the information. Points of interest you can select 0 to 28 categories and see them coming up on the right or left, or see the whole gammet when you stop. It's nothing short of amazing. It comes with an electronic log book and route planning. I simply plugged in the addresses at my hotel (since this was my first trip) saved them to the route page and go. It's so nice to get in, turn the Navigon on and go. I have mine mounted right below my rear view mirrow and never have to take my eyes off of the road. You will be amazed if you do sales or real estate, or just want to see if your route to your Mom's house is the shortest, how less stressful driving is. Shoot, this thing even says caution when you are speeding.
