It's my first, so I can't compare it to others, but I have used it around the area and had no real problems. To make it better, the volume could be higher and the unit could have some sort of sun shade, the glare makes it hard to see and read.
By Ian Chen
I just bought a Q4 from Nextar a couple of weeks ago from Kmart. It is much cheaper than those GPS from other famous brand. To me, it is very user-friendly. The UI is very simple for me to understand and the navigator gives pretty clear instruction while I am driving, specially on the freeway. When it comes to POI issue,as a person who always checks out the info about the place I want to go online before actually moving out, Q4's 1.6 millions of POIs is enough to fit my emergency needs. Honestly, it is not as great as some of the high class GPS from Garmin or TomTom. But it always takes me to where I wanna be. It is really a fair product with such a low price.

I bought two of these and I have to tell you that they both work great. I really don't know what the others are talking about, perhaps they don't know how to use them.
I had a Garmin that broke and saw this one for so much less I had to buy it. It works as good as my old one and as to the POI complaint I saw above, it is nonsense. It has always found what I was looking for. If not I was always able to enter the POI address and find what I needed.
As to upgrades, I was told by Nextar's 800# that not only will there be a map upgrade program available but you will be able to purchase millions more POI's and other items on there web site in July.
This Nextar piece really gives me peace of mind for me and my wife and wouldn't trade it for the world.

I bought the Nextar at Kmart. When I turn on the GPS the system show I am in California when I live in New York. I couldn't receive any GPS signal called up Customer service on a Thursday she said hopefully by Monday they have GPS system working. Wednesday came along still wasn't working. I work in the EMS system. Having a reliable GPS is crucial to getting to a patient. DONT Purchase the Nextar you will be highly disappointed. You don't have too many choices of settings. Worst GPS system ever made.
By Karen E. Koch (North Fork, Ca USA)
This unit is ok but it's lack of built in POIs makes it not as usable as others. This brand of GPS cannot download POIs from usual internet sources like Tom Tom and Garmin can, so you are stuck with just what is already loaded, which isn't much. I was in the central valley of California looking for a Wal-Mart and the nearest one it showed me was in San Diego. I contacted the company and was told that downloading POI's from other sources would ruin the unit and void the warrenty. I was also told that the company has no real plans to offer it's own POI upgrade packages. I would spend the extra and get one that has more POI's.
