I took this unit in Europe last summer and it took about 2000 km within Greece, with one mishap or two. I was not sure if a shortcut was actually a shortcut. that is, when he told me to turn off the main road was dirt and gravel and do not seem to leave. I went straight in, the drive to connect and says that soon found its bearings again, without any estimated loss of time. This unit has the ability to tell which lane you should be, or have the possibility of street names. The option of course would come to the rescue once or twice, however, do not say to keep the right or left to keep a close or exit ramp. Battery life is excellent.
About 4 hours in full-screen and a little more about the sleep mode or block mode screen, the screen darkens a bit and the sound is off, but navigation is still constantly updated. The reason I give this unit for a total of 5 stars is because the switch on the unit, you have the opportunity to fully update maps No America/Canada/Mexico or Europe. I chose to upgrade Europe since they are much less familiar with Europe. I think the consumer must have purchased a device with a full update of all maps.

The system has worked well in Europe and the United States, although he lost the lead a couple of times on the road back to the United Kingdom. Make sure that the signs carry a map, how to travel to some of the smaller villages of the United Kingdom produced confusion or incorrect. Although, with a little 'to read a map and the selection of alternate path (following the sign posts) you can easily reach your destination. It would be better if it was with the flow of traffic and alternate routes around the occupied territories, but in general, there are few complaints about the price.

I bought this GPS for a trip to the United Kingdom and Ireland. It was very useful as a guide is not much different than the United States. The only thing that was a bit annoying (but not the fault of the GPS) is that the GPS said it right "turn on York Street" - and good luck trying to find a street sign - are rare and usually published in the wall of a building. However, when the GPS said turn, is named best - had no misunderstanding. GPS also warns of the areas of radar and cameras - may be saving money! Also, when you rent a car, make sure the lighter works - not on our car and it was uncomfortable for periods of time - again, through no fault of the GPS. Highly recommended if you're on a budget and do not need machines at higher prices.

Value of the product at prices that did a decent job in the south of France and Amsterdam. It knew of some very small roads, although sometimes it was hard to tell exactly where you are calling because they were often close. Do not try to announce the names of streets that is good in a foreign country.

I used this GPS in Europe, specificaly Slovenia. Slovenia has expanded its system of roads and this unit has not been updated. He lost when he found a new way. I had to do a tour until recalculated and found his way again. He spoke in English and Slovenian very well and clearly. Overall a good value, especially if you can purchase an upgrade from Garmin.
