Mio DigiWalker C220 review
There are plenty of GPS satellite-navigation systems on the market that will get you exactly where you need to go. Forget all the horror stories — if you’re a sensible driver and you don’t take everything a sat-nav says literally, then this will probably turn out to be the best technological investment you’ve ever made.
From driving to a part of town you haven’t been to before, to touring the countryside or even driving abroad, a GPS system will make it all easier and more enjoyable. You can even get sat-navs so small that they’ll fit in your pocket and you can use them while you stroll the streets or hike the hills.
Depending on what you need, different features will be more or less important. A big screen is always good if you’re going to use it mainly while driving, as it’s much easier to see what’s going on. You also want to look out for whether or not it says street names, as this will prove more helpful than just ‘turn left’ and ‘turn right’ instructions.
Seasoned drivers who often use the motorway or people who have a habit of going over the speed limit will be interested in speed-camera alerts and traffic updates. If you’re more of a walker then you’re going to want something small and light that fits in your pocket.
The Garmin is very user-friendly and intuitive, and uses touch-screen technology. An estimated
arrival time is also given (and is usually very accurate). You can change the language settings of
the GPS should you wish. You can charge the GPS unit using the lighter socket in your rental car.

The best thing about the C220 is that it doesn’t feel like it was built down to a price. The screen and guidance are first class, and its small size is as much as a bonus as a drawback. The interface quirks are annoying, but resist the urge to chuck it out of a window — get used to it and you’ll find a fine budget navigator here.
