Mio C520 Review

There’s another review up on the new Mio C520 widescreen GPS that rates the unit very good, and highlights the unit’s sleek design and fuller featureset as key pluses for the new unit from Mio. The Mio C520 follows the rest of Mio’s products as a slightly more cost effective way to get into the GPS market. The unit is list priced at $399 presently, but can be bought for the mid to low $300’s online.

This review from CNet talks up the design and mentions the fact that they didn’t like the Mio C220 and its screen brightness. I think that they overdid it and were a little picky for a unit that has a street price of less than $200. You can see my review of the Mio C220 for my thoughts on using the Mio C220.

Well, even for the doubting Thomas’s from CNet the Mio C520 did a pretty good job of impressing them. The capabilities are improving at a pretty fast rate, and widescreens certainly are a big help when showing a lot of data. The split screen on the Mio C520 has the ability to show off extra data about your route or your trip data on a split screen format. Very cool.
