What's Hot

Intuitive user interface, Convenient parking and fuel buttons, Compact size and weight, External volume controls, 3.5in touch screen

What's Not

No AC adapter or USB cable included, No red light or speed camera warnings, Sluggish re-routing times in some instances, Battery life could be improved.

The Final Word

As a basic, entry-level GPS unit at this price, the F20 does quite a fine job. It doesn't include speed or red light camera warnings and is thin on included accessories, but an easy to grasp interface and solid maps provide a pleasing navigational experience - even for first time GPS users.
