1 Star Don’t waste your time buying the Maestro 4350
I am currently on my 3rd and last Magellan Maestro 4350.Each one I have been sent will freeze up and not work until reset.Frustrating after you have spent 2 or 3 hours route planning and then loose it all.Great unit if they could get this resolved.All of this is happening after the software / firmware update.

1 Star Waiting for a replacement
The Magellan Maestro 4350 was broken right out of the box. I tried to use it on a trip to Stroudsburg, Pa. First it would not accfept the Building number of the motel. Then I set it just for a routing to the city. We left on the morning of 9/14 and within 2 minutes it started showing the demoration tour of what the unit can do. I reset it and the same thing happened. This kept happening about 6 times until we turned it off and put it in the trunk.

I am however, very impressed with customer service. They are sending me a new one and all I have to do is send the old one backwithin 30 days using the UPS label that the emailed to me.

I will try the new one out before I send the defective one back.

4 Stars Magellan Maestro 4350
So far this is a great GPS. It replaces my TomTom 300, which finally gave me error messages, and TomTom’s only way of getting map updates is not online – which again gave me error messages!

The documentation for this GPS is awful, and should be written by someone who actually uses this item. Magellan can improve this product by making the battery level an icon. It’s noplace to be found – just the error message that you’re battery level is low and we are about to shut down. I have searched high and low for an icon (which my TomTom had) and there isn’t one – except on the pull down screen. The points of interest are way to generic – you would have to get all banks – not just you’re bank; all restaurants, instead of your favorite bagel and coffee shop.

Oveall – this is a far superior product. It’s easy to use – once you figure out how to use it. My only complaint is that you can’t even figure out from the documentation how to recharge the battery; nor can you figure out how to update the thing. UGH

5 Stars Great peice of equipment Magellan 4350
Magellan Maestro 4350 is one GREAT peice of equipment. It’s always right on the

money on its directions and such. The first time I used it it was easy to use and

has many features that I may never use, but they are there if you would want them.

The screen is great, nice size and very readable both in the sunlight and night. I

really love this as it’s great to work with. It always knows where you are..

2 Stars Magellan Maestro 4350
THE BIGGEST GRIPE:

UNIT FROZE WHILE I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY AND DON’T KNOW WHICH EXIT TO TAKE. A FINE TIME TO DIE WHEN I NEED IT THE MOST! UPDATING SOFTWARE DIDN’T HELP!

The Pros are:

a. Ding dong bell chimes alerting you to make the turn.

b. When typing address, keys grayed out when there is no such name combinations.

c. Nice big screen display.

d. On off switch turns on with a light touch.

The Cons are:

a. Arrived at destination on the wrong side of the road. That is: GPS claims the store is on the right while it is really located at the left side.

b. Choices of Woman’s voice & pitch are limited. Like better sounding voices.

c. Some street names are still not listed in this unit while it has the latest map. This road had been in existence for the past 40 years. Are these people sleeping?

d. Limited volume adjustment.

e. Power plugs to the right side of the unit making it jut out to the side.

f. Delayed reaction when typing names in the keyboard display. Hit the button 3 times & there is no reaction for 6 seconds. Afterwards, the 3 hits all come in at once.

g. Long charging times & short battery life.

WILL I BUY ANOTHER MAGELLAN? ABSOLUTELY UNEQUIVOCALLY NO!!!!!!!!!!!

3 Stars magellan maestro 4370
received unit 2 days late got to love usps,very disapointed it came with all the info of the previous owner wich a wasen’t able to delet all of it yet,and also has his initials carved at the bottom of the unit.first try to update the os crashed good thing i backed up the files,and it’s not to acurate on the destination ex:says destination on the left when it’s actualy on the right,so far the building 3d feature doesen’t work.was able to suscribe to the 3 month free trafic info with AAA,but doesen’t work so far.everything was in the box exept a tiny screw wich is no big deal.

i would sugest to get a new unit if you can aford it,cause you get what you pay for.

but over all for the first gps experiance it’s worth the purchas

4 Stars Moving from a TomTom
So far so good with this refurb. It came with all the parts but one and that was a tiny safety screw for the mount that I can pick up at the hardware. I was able to register the device with Magellan no problem.

The Magellan did boot up with a CE Operating System error first time but, was a message that said to reboot and report if it continues. So far it has not come back. (TomTom OS has never error-ed)

The SMS texting feature does not work (Paired with BlackBerry). Magellan has a disclaimer on the text feature. It only works on some cell phones.

Using the hands free calling does work. The sound quality on the receiving end “from the built in speaker” is not the greatest.

Using the factory warranty (well) I hope it never comes up. I did buy the SquareTrade warranty with this to be safe.

No trial period on the Traffic Service so I have not turned it on yet.

My TomTom was and is still great and after 2 years my stepson has it. I needed a bigger screen and read good things on Megellan while shopping.

5 Stars Wonderful Alternative to Windshield Mount/Docking Station
I agree entirely with the other reviewers on how well this works in the car as opposed to the windshield mount. However I found it works great as docking station for my TT 630. The TT 630 comes with just a usb cord and no docking station so I set this on my desk for home charging and updates, then pick the whole thing up and go. Pretty slick!

5 Stars Works perfectly
Works very well. I tried the supplied button from the TomTom for a dash mount and it was worthless. I didn’t like it on the windshield since it blocked my viw at times. This holds th unit just fine and stays put on my Honda Pilot dash without slipping. For anti theft I just pick the whole unit up and hide it in the glove compartment.

5 Stars A must have for your GPS
If you own a GPS for you car, you need this. This heavy base sits on your dashboard with a slip resistant bottom. You use the suction cup base of your GPS to attach it to the smooth plastic of the base. Then you just place it on your dash. Why would you want to fight with constantly sticking and removing it from your windshield? When I park my truck, I just put the GPS, base and all, into my center console compartment. Anyone looking for electronics to steal won’t see my GPS. Better still, they won’t see the suction rings on the windshield which is a sure give away that there is a GPS in the car.

5 Stars If I could give this 5 plus stars I would….do NOT buy the Bracketron, buy this
This is an incredibly stable pad. Awesome in fact. I had tried the Bracketron UFM-100BL Nav-Mat GPS Friction Dash Pad and it slid all over. It endangered not only the unit but me and my passengers. It knonked my wife on the knee pretty hard. You had to constantly be on edge that it would fall off.

This item though is like super-glue. It sticks on EVERY turn and I am using it on the same exact dashboard the Bracketron would slide constantly on. This has not slid once on any turn, sharp U-turns included. I can not get it to budge. As an added bonus it is much smaller than the Bracketron hence easier to transfer between cars or stick in a glove department. It is usually priced higher than the Bracketron but it will be the best extra few dollars you have spent.

5 Stars WORKS GREAT!
I couldn’t imagine this thing clinging to the dash when I made quick stops and sharp turns but it does. Works great with my Tom Tom with plenty of clearance for the cable connection at the bottom. Buy with confidence!
