Uniden Trax 5000

The Trax 5000 is not without its faults but its size and legibility make a compelling case.

Uniden BTSC1500

It tries to pack a few too many features on to the one button, but otherwise the BTSC1500 makes for a good in-car companion.

Reviews

  • Mio A470

    As its name suggests, the A470 has a 4.7-inch touchscreen. It also gains Bluetooth hands-free, lane guidance, 3D landmarks and text-to-speech.

  • Mio A350

    At AU$199, the Mio A350 is the cheapest brand name GPS around. While it has a 3.5-inch touchscreen, and school and safety camera warnings, you can forget about text-to-speech, Bluetooth, lane guidance and the like.

  • Uniden Trax 350

    Available only through Harvey Norman stores, the Trax 350 has a 3.5-inch screen, 3D terrain, 3D landmarks and safety camera locations. It misses out on the Bluetooth hands-free of the 353 model, which is available everywhere.

  • Uniden Trax 430

    Uniden's Trax 430 has a 4.3-inch screen, Bluetooth hands-free, 3D terrain and landmarks, and safety camera locations.

  • Uniden Trax 353

    The mid-range Trax 353 has a 3.5-inch screen, 3D landmarks and terrain, safety camera locations and Bluetooth hands-free. Oddly enough the 4.3-inch 430 model is identically priced.

  • Uniden Trax 325

    Uniden's entry-level Trax GPS model has a 3.5-inch screen, text-to-speech and, well, not much else. It misses out on safety camera locations, 3D terrain and 3D landmarks that are available in the rest of the range.

  • Mio DigiWalker A702

    It works well as a GPS navigator but, as a phone, the slow responses and awful text messaging really let the A702 down.

  • Mio DigiWalker C320

    Mio's C320 GPS provides a good balance between affordability and features.
