Nokia 330 Auto Navigation - Expert Reviews

Pros: The Nokia 330 Auto Navigation features a compact design and bright touch screen. The system offers text- and voice-guided directions and some multimedia extras.

Cons: The voice-guided directions aren't as precise as competing products, and the map interface can be a bit confusing. The system also doesn't support text-to-speech functionality.

Verdict: Debuting as the company's first in-car GPS device, the Nokia 330 Auto Navigation system is just average and lags behind the competition in terms of voice directions and ease of use.

Pros: 512MB external memory plus 256MB internal flash, Small size, Excellent maps

Cons: Lacks Bluetooth, No text-to-speech function, Slow route-calculation

Verdict: Nokia has made a decent first attempt at offering a personal navigation device but the product is marred by the lack of Bluetooth, and is outdone by its better equipped and similarly priced rivals.

Review summary: Nokia has made a decent first attempt at offering a personal navigation device but the product is marred by the lack of Bluetooth, and is outdone by its better equipped and similarly priced rivals.

Pros: 512MB external memory plus 256MB internal flash, Small size, Excellent maps

Cons: Lacks Bluetooth, No text-to-speech function, Slow route-calculation

Pros: Good screen, simple and easy to read maps, decent navigational performance

Cons: Search method, on-screen keyboard, no included AC charger, can't charge via mini-USB, no red light or speed camera alerts
