Customer Response

Outstandibg but Support a little suspect
Great product - outstanding value for money - I had issue with Maps though - they don't have speed limits built in (although an earlier version of Mio GPS did - unable to get a good answer as to how to get them

Aside from above the product has been perfect bar a few odd route selections but it is the exception than the rule

A bargain GPS. Consider it a discounted C520.
I purchased this unit for use in the US, Mexico and Brazil. It comes with US, Mexico City and Canadian maps.
I just installed the maps for Brazil and they're great as well, even including speed traps (radars) throughout the country.

The unit works extremely well. The internal loudspeaker is very loud and can be heard over road noise and conversation. The mounting bracket is made in Germany and also of excellent quality. I did not use the Traffic network feature.

The camera is almost useless as it has very low speed and sensitivity.

The unit comes with Media players for Video, Audio and Photo files, but the 2GB memory is almost full with the on-board maps, so better get an external 2GB SD card. Don't buy a larger card since the unit does not recognize it.

NONETHELESS, the current pricing on the unit, due to the discontinuation of it by MIO, makes it a great Bargain! It has the additional useless camera and Traffic Radio over the C520, but it's priced lower than the C520, so just use it as a C520 and be done with it!

Mitac Mio c720t
Hi all, i bought the Mio c720t and i am very satisfied. This machine has it all in one. Has 2 mega pixel camera (captures pics and videos), mp3 player, video player, photo player, you can add your telephone contacts and answer through it while you driving with one click. It supports sd card 8GB of some brands (not all, you have to make a search for it). It has a multi calculator. Very fast GPS (with Mio map and Destinator 7). If you think to buy it just do it, you will love it.

Terrible human interface
The Mio is doing it's job, but what a terrible GUI (Graphic user interface).
I own an iPhone, so I can tell you that they could have done a much better job on it, you have to learn each screen by hart or you will be lost, simple things like going back to a main menu or closing an application are never at the same place, and never at the same design, one time the close button is an "X" icon, and some times it's an arrow to the left, or to the top and so on...

GPS MIO 720t MAPS WILL FAIL, UPGRADE WILL BE WORSE
the mio i purchased here for a very low price of 300, is awesome to look at, easy to do and enter everything but destination,,,,, MIO support is soo lame, it is the worst support of anyone,,,to this date june 3rd 2010
maps are not updated, AND ARE NOT FREE, you must purchase maps, camera is 2 mpx, which is ok, but no price, good for what its for,,,
bluetooth was good, screen is bright, and at night, the night screen is bright,,dual screen is neat, but not helpful,,,,,,GPS is almost exact,, very very close ;;;;;;
i tried to get info from MIO, they were not helpful whatsoever,, their website is under construction and calling support is just as lame,,,, i went for the 300 dollar MIO, and forgot about service,,,,im not unhappy with this purchase,(price) but service/support from MIO, anything, anything would improved it,, and to charge me for the map updates, how greedy are they,,,, the c520 and the garmin nuvi 660, were other choices,,,but for the money, mio was the deal,,,wrenchman55 at gmail the upgrades will turn this lame mapped GPS into a paperweight, and is irreverseable, i suggest you do not buy mio, nor magellan which is owned by mio,,,,asus is garmin but asus service stinks tooo,,,,thumbs down on mio anything, finally got a call from magellan, (MIO) and was offered a cheap POSgps,,,,AND THEN WAS INFORMED I WAS s,o,l,....
