Customer Reviews

Worst piece of junk ever!!!!!
This thing is the worst!......I thought it would be a good product because of the brand .....Maybe they should stick to audio, The unit frequently locked up and had to be restarted, It gave false directions, It didnt recognize addresses, And lost signal all the time....Let me finish by saying that I only had the unit for aprox 1 week and only used it 3 of the 7 days.......not at all worth the money.

Ok, when it has signal... it might take ages to do so!!!!
This was our first GPS, sadly/fortunately it was stolen a few weeks ago. This unit is ok for someone that knows the city and is only looking for a companion that can say where is, that address that you don't recognize. The routes it gave to us were ok and in most of the cases it took me to the destination without mayor problems. The only time it really frustrated us was when we were in a toll way and I got confused with its directions and suddenly we were going in the wrong direction and the freaking GPS keep telling me to U turn when possible because it thought we were in a dead end alley!!!!... So imagine my desperation. The mayor cons this unit has is the terrible capability to get signal... Man! I can still hear it saying "GPS signal lost". In some cases (as usual when you need it the most) the unit couldn't get GPS signal at all, and in some occasions it took it up to 30 minutes to get signal in the street!!!!; in some other occasions in the middle of the journey it simply lost the signal because no reason, so it might get frustrating from time to time. This was a problem I read before buying the unit but still I wanted to give it a chance.

In general is a fine product that has a lot of chances to be a GREAT GPS unit. After our gps was stolen I was up to buy this GPS again, but there was a promotion of the Navigon 2100 here in amazon and, WOW I couldn't be happier with a GPS... This unit takes some time (3 minutes the most) to get gps signal but NEVER as much as the HK, the display is less flashy but man! it says the distance and the street name too!...

At the end what I can say about the HK GPS unit is that it was fine and in general I liked it... I was up to re-buy it!, but there are other options within the same cost and the can be great! if you're looking for a GPS unit with MP3 and a flashy display with more than 3" I think this unit has a fair price and wont disappoint you a lot. If you're looking for a unit to get signal fast and bring you more functionality than multimedia then you should be reading the reviews of the navigon lol... (it has some flaws it's not perfect but I'm more comfortable with it)

Good luck with your GPS election and "may the GPS signal be with you!" lol

Smart Design and Graphics
This is one of those great deals where the looks and interface perform better than the price. My only complaint is that the signal is sometimes weak in my Audi, while in the Dodge truck it's flawless. I believe it has more to do with the film applied to the thick windshield than the GPS as this problem has occurred with previous units. When the GPS has difficulty finding a signal I simply open the sunroof or window and the problem disappears. Besides that, the interface is one of it's best features. It's very intuitive and has large buttons to operate without focussing on it too long. The graphics and maps are very up-to-date.

nice design. lots of functinalities. poor algorithm.
i bought this unit last year because:
(+) nice screen size and resolution.
(+) built-in MP3/WMA music player with SD slot
(+) Harman Kardon brand name

and i returned it after 3-week use in multiple states because:
(-) TERRIBLE algorithm and possibly old maps. the software told me to turn left into no-left-turn roads / one-way / into freeway many times.
(-) slow satellite lock-on time, sometimes even minutes. actually slower than my Sprint Mogul.

you don't want to be a GPS horror story.

GPS
I recently bought this product for my husband as a birthday present. He loves it. Very, Very easy to use, extremely portable, great big screen, and very accurate. I recommend this product to anyone who has a husband that doesn't stop to ask for directions!!!
