Nextar I4-BC GPS Review

For under $300 USD, you can get this budget GPS that has a media player, text-to-speech and a backup camera, but is it worth it?

Maps are HIGHLY out dated. Its a shame because it works well.

Nice review, but no footage of the image quality of the backup camera?

I got this for Christmas. I was happy about the GPS with a back up camera. The GPS fell far shy of my expectations and the back up camera doesn't work very well. I am trying a few things to corrected but if not, it's going back. So disappointed, and this wasn't cheap either! As for the back up camera, you do need someone who knows how to do this, don't try it on you own, unless you have experience with auto electronics.

in my opinion GPS tracking device is useful but the problem is if theres an incident like accident.our CLIENT asking if there is a new technology that can see the actual movements of the ca .because they want to see in the internet.like security camera's .someting weird but i think its useful i think.that's funny ha..ha..ha..

i just returned a different model nextar gps today

it was a nextar ME model

i bought it and it worked for 3 days then it just plain wouldn't turn on anymore LOL

so i had to dig in the garbage like 5 minutes before the garbage man came to get the receipt and box

i know it was a different model than this one, but still.. i will never buy another nextar product

It bobs around because you didn't tighten the ball joint.

I liked mine. Hooking up the back up camera is no more complicated than hooking up other back up cameras. The sound may not be that great, but are the others really any better? A cheap FM transmitter can play it and the mp3 player on the car stereo.

My problem with the unit is with the cumbersome map update and system freezing. The 1 year warranty just expired and it won't reboot. The remedy that Nextar gave me was to exchange for another for $130.00. I'm not too happy about that.
