Binatone F350 Automotive GPS Receiver(UK version)

The buying experience was quick and painless, particularly as it was so cheap!
The unit arrived sooner than expected and in perfect condition. The accessories appeared to be new, the unit itself was described as reconditioned but was quite frankly as good as new. It wasn't new because the previous users addresses that he had visited were still in the memory.

The F350 is fairly basic, but because of that it is very easy to use. I have used only one sat nav before (so I'm no expert)but within a few minutes I had set it up and it was fully operational.

I like the fact that it uses the full postcode and even the house number so it will take you to within a few houses of any address.

The only thing about the F350 that I don't like is the voice. The only other sat nav I have used cost more than 10 times the price of this one so perhaps I have been spoiled.

With this one I find the voice sometimes difficult to understand, she seems to mumble. The audio is not adjustable for tone or bass etc so there is only the volume to fiddle with. I tried that but the quieter I made it the harder it was to hear. It is only a minor complaint and the problem only really exists with the window open or with other background noise to contend with. When the windows are closed and other noises subdued (like music) I can hear the instructions clearly enough.

That about sums it up. It's basic, no frills, bells or whistles but does what you would expect. The price was amazing, under £31 including all tax & postage, that's cheap!
It is not as good as the only other unit I have used but that cost £375, so all in all I am happy with my purchase.

Well! its late in the evening being 2200hrs,see what an exciting life! you 2 can achieve this outstanding status,by being a total loser!!.
Agh wrong book,well heres that review,this Sat-Nav will do all that can be asked,of a real basic m/c,I used it on Motorcycle tied to a mirror,ya do know,that means Handle-Bar Mirror,no!!rear views here!!I wore head-phones and I drove it totaly made she gave up screaming I am lost,only a few seconds later to send me in the right direction.
Theres no Bluetooth etc! if and I do mean if your only going 2 want a reliable simple Sat-Nav for a occasional trip eg social,its 100% realy!at the price,ya! all get none better.

Bought this for my daughter so she didn't have to keep borrowing mine. What a bargain she like's it more than mine which cost three times as much, she like's the ease of use clear screen and posh navigation instructions. So far only used a couple of times but she loves it not sent her into a wall or lake so far. Would recomend this if you need a sat nav but have a tight budget as it boxes well above it's price.

Does everything you want, in a cheap satnav. I steered clear of satnavs for years, believing that if you can't use your brain to read a map, you shouldn't be driving, I have always found where I needed to be with my road atlas and pre-written notes. Then one day, I had to pop into Glasgow for a hospital appointment and finding the hospital in rush hour traffic was a nightmare. I succumbed to purchasing a satnav and have never looked back. I didn;t want, or need one with all singing and dancing bells and whistles, just something cheap and cheerful that helps me find a point easily and quickly, and you cannot go wrong with this model. Its cheap, easy to follow, loud enough to hear over motorway noises, and gets you from A to B without any fuss, and no need to take your eyes off the road to look at your map or notes. You may have to update the maps when you first get it, I havn't done this yet but I am sure it will be pretty straight forward with the usb connection. Overall, very happy with my purchase.

Buy a Tom Tom. The software for this is terrible. It continually tells me to "keep left" or "keep right" when what it should say is "follow the road straight ahead". On the main A9 on a couple of occasions it appears to have a minor road OR DRIVEWAY as being the main road; it therefore tells you to turn left when in fact you are to just follow the road and drive straight ahead. A major junction that was reworked almost 3 years ago is still shown as being the old layout. If you followed the directions there you would drive the wrong way down a road in the face of 3 lanes of oncoming traffic.
Having used a tom tom i can only suggest that this binatone is a piece of junk.
