JVC KDNX5000 Review

As the GPS space grows, we should see more of these integrated media and navigation hugs for your car. TomTom certainly thinks so, as they backed the Eclipse AVN2210P, and we continue the quickening pace of integrated units coming from the major aftermarket stereo providers. The JVC KD-NX5000 was recently announced at the CES 2007 show with some impressive specs, including a 40GB hard drive that is split between navigation and media storage.

CNet has posted a good fairly in depth review of the unit, and have rated it “Spectacular – 9 out of 10. GPS-wise, the unit has over 13 million Points of Interest, and maps from NAVTEQ, although they mention that the maps were not as crisp as they would have liked. Not sure if this has to do with the map data, the colors chosen or the screen size/viewing angle. As far as the media functions go, CNet appears to be pretty happy about the whole set-up and thought that the 5,000+ song capacity + video playback were solid, in the end saying that the JVC KD-NX5000 “is about as much car tech per square foot as you can get.”
