Navman F20 GPS Navigator

User Review: 4 out of 5 stars - Performs well and is inexpensive, not cheap.
As many have said before me, this product is a very good value. If you are looking for a GPS system to provide directions, without many of the additional features such as bluetooth, MP3 playback, and TTS, it will be hard to beat. It may give you a little bit of trouble directionally when in parking lots and such, but it overall performs very well. If you can find it for under $200 as I did, I would highly recommend it.



User Review: 1 out of 5 stars - was a 4 until today.. now a 1
bought this F20 2 months ago... not as slick with bells and whistles like the Garmin 660 I was looking at.. cheaper price won me over... worked well until today..I turned it on ...uh oh.. black screen with RED text error message.. unable to access internal memory.. contact customer support..

so I called Navman Cust Svc... they said to bring it back to the retailer..they knew about the error message I described to them..and that there have been a number of units that are defective causing this internal memory error.... I was assured that the retailer knew about the recall.. guess what... I tried to return it to Office Depot...it is well over their 14 day return policy and they DID NOT know about the faulty F20's.. I had to do a dance.. shuffle and a whatever.. they relented and exchanged it for a new one.. which most likely will do the same...

have to call Navman back tomorrow to check into this further.. and see what other recourse I have...



User Review: 5 out of 5 stars - NAVEMAN F20
Great basic unit. Gets you where your going without a lot of un-needed extras.



User Review: 5 out of 5 stars - It is even more fun
This is my second Navman. I like this one much more because there is nothing to download. It is easy to use, and mxh faster than my last one and the price is more than reasonable.



User Review: 4 out of 5 stars - Navman F20
The user manual is well written and on our first trip, I sorted out how to use the navigation system. The trip from our home to the end destination in Murfreesborough, NC took about 2 and 1/2 hours (distance 142 miles). The vocal instructions were very accurate and we reached our destination without any problems.
On our way back home, the GPS apparently lost all satellite signals (about at exit 289 on I40 NC) and we were informed to drive to the nearest road. After a while, our position was re-established and the turn by turn instructions were very accurate.
We found that whenever we deliberately took another route, the NAVMAN could quickly re-establish our position and guide us to the chosen destination.
The touch screen is easy to work with and most of the menus are intuitive. For it's price, I consider the Navman F20 a good buy. The manufacturer could however, have added a stylus (for tapping on the screen) as part of the package.
