Magellan Maestro 4250 Bluetooth GPS System Review

If you're on the road a lot, and often find yourself having to go to out of the way places in either the U.S. or Canada, you need a good direction finding device. There are a lot of the GPS systems on the market, but the Magellan Maestro 4250 is probably the best for you because of its ease of use and affordable price.

 

Voice Recognition makes the Magellan Maestro 4250 GPS a great buy

The 4250 has a 4.3” color touch screen with interactive icons, but the thing that lifts it above other devices is the voice recognition capability. If you find yourself in heavy traffic and need to know which turnoff gets you to some small town that’s not on the direction signs, the last thing you need is to have to divert your attention to fiddling with a GPS screen. With the Magellan 4250, you only have to say “Magellan” to activate voice control, and the unit responds to a number of common voice commands. It is also compatible with most Bluetooth enabled phones, allowing completely hands-free phone calls, and this is important in areas where using a cell phone while driving is illegal, and the police have little else to do but snag speeders and cell phone users.

The Magellan Maestro 4250 Bluetooth GPS system will not break your budget. Units can be purchased on-line for as little as $165 new and $118 used, or you can order one through your local Radio Shack.

In addition to voice control, which is the Magellan's best feature, the 4250 also has complete maps of the U.S., Canada, and Puerto Rico, and operates up to four hours on the rechargeable battery in the absence of external power. With a simple USB cable hook-up, you can recharge the battery on your home computer.
