Don't know how good it would be compared to Garmin.For some reason Magellan Customer Support is lousy. Product is easy to use, VR command is a good feature, I have had no problems so far. Very hard to make telephone contact and email response is just no damn good.
I haven't tried the traffic because I'm either returning it or selling it. I haven't been able to connect to it with Bluetooth at all. It's so big and the base is so tall that it blocks vision, the display is hard to read in daylight, it tells me to go the wrong way at times, the street the names appear with dots rather on the streets themselves, and it shows me driving through fields rather than on roads at times. It does pick up satellites quickly, but the interface is cumbersome and requires taking one's eyes off the road too much. Save your money for another model.
I am very pleased with my new Mageleon gps unit.I took a trip recently and it got me right to where I wanted to go.have had no problems so far, except when she doent want to talk to me somtimes and that frustrates me.
California has lots of Spanish place names which are sometimes butchered by the voice, but the printed version is always on the screen when we can't understand her. We are enjoying the new device, and we look forward to some travel this fall where we can really put it to the test. We have not yet given "her" a name, but we will.
It is like someone sitting by your side giving directions or even better than because it is so detailed. A+ GPS. Could not ask for better.
