Magellan 800..good, but could be a little better.
4 of 4 found this helpful After having had the 800 for about 9 months, I'm still glad I got it. The features are, for the most part, user friendly and readily accessible from the menu screen. The price was reasonable, and the system performance has been nearly perfect.
On the downside, I've been a little frustrated on a couple of occasions when the unit locked up with the map fixed on one position. After a few minutes, the only thing that I could do was turn it off and start over. No fix for this posted on Magellan's website. On the "Night" screen (which sometimes works automatically, sometimes not, possibly a light sensor issue), the illumination intensity of the buttons does not decrease with the screen illumination, so you still have a lot of light projected at you.
The maps overall are pretty good, but I did run in to few situations in Kansas where the street numbers were a block off (was in the 400 block, and unit stated I was in the 300 block, etc.). The unit I purchased was a refurb unit, but had the latest maps and OS when I checked it on Magellan's website. Even with this, the maps were at least 2 years old, as I live in a new subdivision that is 3 (not in system) and many of the roads around the Austin area have been completed within the last couple of years. This wreaks havoc with the routing function, but if you press on, it will automatically re-route once you get back on an older road.
Map updates are not free, so this would be a huge impediment to me purchasing another Magellan product, when I was otherwise satisfied with this unit.
