MAPMYINDIA ZX 250Price: Rs 15,990
Navigators are still not so popular in India, but that hasn't stopped companies like
MapmyIndia from updating their product lineup. Its latest offering, the Zx250, doesn't look cheap like many other
navigators we have seen.
With a metallic grey body, the unit has curved edges with a power key at the top and ports on the left. The 5-inch wide display makes the Zx250 easy to use. The bright display is complemented by a 3D graphic interface that tries to recreate the localities you are looking for. For instance, the 3D model of Delhi's Gurudwara Bangla Sahib on the screen had a good likeness of the real thing.
The software on the Zx250 is very up to date and it manages to recognise and give alternatives for routes that had been blocked. Rerouting was quick and well supported with loud and clear voice guidance. Overall, the maps offers street-level turn by turn direction for close to 4,000 cities and towns in India.
The only spoiler was the onscreen keypad which made it a bit tough to key in destinations. The Zx250 is Bluetooth enabled and can be used as a handsfree speaker for your mobile while driving. Other features include integrated FM radio, ebooks, games and AV in function to convert it into a screen for a reverse camera.
BAG IT OR JUNK IT? Smart looking, feature rich navigator.
