Being my first GPS, I was not sure which I should buy but this one looked like a good choice based on reviews I read and price.
The screen size is good and when it does give directions, most times they are accurate.
Most times starting from a location or reaching a destination it calls out the last turn opposite to what it usually is so if you are suppose to make a left it will say make a right.
Once it starts displaying route, it does not tell you the first step unless you have moved for a significant distance (so you have to read out the map - which is not always possible if you are the only person in the car).
POI is not that great.
I dont know how this compares to any other GPS devices or their features so take it with as a review from a novice at GPS devices (but not the concept or technology).
