"From the Manufacturer (June 19, 2008)"
Maximize your driving experience with easy-to-follow voice-guided directions and access to over 3.5 million points of interest with the svelte, stylish Mio Moov 310, which features an extra-large widescreen 4.3-inch LCD for clearer text and more map on the screen. It comes with a 12-month Traffic Messaging Channel subscription, which helps you to avoid unexpected accidents, road blocks and traffic jams with its real-time traffic alerts. With pre-loaded maps of all 50 U.S. States and Puerto Rico, the Mio Moov 310 is ready to operate in minutes with no computer set-up required. Other features include 1 GB of internal memory, an SD/MMC memory card slot, and up to 2.5 hours of battery life.
Never miss a turn with 3D indicators and clear voice turn-by-turn guidance. |
The Mio Moov 310 comes with a one-year paid Traffic Messaging Channel (TMC) subscription. Powered by ClearChannel's network of affiliates, TMC provides real-time updates on accidents, detours and construction that could delay or prevent drivers from reaching their destination. With TMC real-time alerts, you'll be warned early of trouble spots up ahead and get suggestions for routes around the obstruction. The Mio Moov 310 sports a 4.3-inch, square-shaped display (480 x 272-pixel resolution) with a bright, anti-glare screen for easy viewing in any environment. All the controls, buttons and menus accessed via the touchscreen have been optimized for ease of use and fast access to the features you use the most. If you know the address of your destination, you can use the software's address-entry wizard and its on-screen keyboard. You can also use the Multi-stop Trip Planner function if you're running several errands. The Moov 310 allows you to save up to 200 destinations in a favorites list for easy access to your most visited addresses and points of interest. While most GPS devices will alert you that you are "about to turn left in 100 yards," the Moov 310 goes a step further and includes an advanced Text-to-Speech feature that reads the actual street name as your next turn approaches--enabling you to spend more time watching the road and less concentration on the GPS screen. Mio Moov devices feature the new SiRFInstantFixII GPS receiver, which deliver faster GPS signal locks so you can begin navigating as soon as you're ready to drive. The SiRFInstantFixII chip can find and lock a GPS signal in as few as five seconds during typical device start-ups, almost half a minute faster than other GPS devices. For users in cities where tall buildings can impede GPS signals--creating "urban canyons"--a fast signal requisition can be the difference between missing a turn and arriving on-time. Other features include: - With over 3.5 million points of interest, it's easy to find restaurants, gas stations, emergency assistance, hotels and more.
- United States street-level maps are pre-loaded on the 1 GB internal memory
- SD/MMC memory card slot for additional map loading
- USB port for connection to your PC
- Internal speaker
- Dimensions: 5.1 x 3.3 x 0.7 inches (WxHxD)

 Mio Moov 310: Skip this one November 3, 2008
I've used a lot of different GPS units, Tomtom, Garmin, and the prior Mio units. Got the Mio Moov, and returned in a couple days. Too slow, none of POI's compared to the previous C520 and C310 series. I personally don't like the new map design and interface, the C520 series had very good onscreen info. The Moov has it too, but you have to keep pressing the green button on the right corner to see details. The thing also takes too long to "think" and search for POI's or just to get to the next step when entering addresses.
I don't get what's wrong with these companies. You spend thousands on R&D and come up with a product that's worse off...
Purchased for Traffic...switched from Navigon GPS... October 31, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I purchased the MOOV 310 to use as a "commuting" GPS to help with traffic. It was a big step up from the Navigon 5100 that I returned to the store after a few days. I basically have two ways I can traverse the 45 miles into Boston; the highways or back roads. The MOOV 310 allows you to put up a map of a large region that shows traffic issues in addition to the normal 3D/2D maps. It works pretty well, not perfect, but accurate enough to offer some guidance. What's nice is you do not have to be in a route in order to see traffic. If you are on a route, then it will show you traffic alerts that are only on your route (if you chose). When you are on the "traffic" screen, you can drill into individual traffic alerts to see a closer map of the area or read text on the problem (slow traffic, accident, road work, etc.) One thing you cannot get by just looking at the map is the direction of the problem (ie. eastbound or westbound), so you must look at the text. Device comes with a year of free traffic and you can sign up for a free map upgrade slated for spring '09.
Some gadgets fit your eye and others don't. The Navigon 5100 device had a more washed out screen to me, the text and detail was too small, traffic didn't come up on it's own screen, took 8 seconds to turn on everyday by holding the "on" button, etc. That's just me, other people rave about them and I'm sure they are right, it works great for them. As a GPS, the MOOV 310 works fine. Routing is great, screen is great, usability is great, POI's are very good, speed is fine - no real complaints. It does what I bought it to do and I can see the next generation by Mio being even better.
Very Unhappy With this Unit October 21, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This was to be my first GPS. Right from the box...after charging...I experienced frustration. Addresses that I typed in were not found. POIs gave limited choices in my home area when I know that many more places existed than shown. This unit was also very sluggish at startup. I was uncertain whether the problems were my inexperience with GPS technology or the unit so I ordered a Garmin 650 to compare with. It arrived yesterday. My initial intention was to use both side by side for 1 week then decide which unit to keep and which to return. However, the Garmin WOWED me right off. Found addresses that the Mio didn't. It's much easier to use...keypad on the Mio is either too light or too hard...not sure which but I was constantly hitting double letters. This unit did give very accurate directions while moving...once you got your addresses into the system...and I did like that it didn't announce that it was re-calculating when you turned from it's path...it just did it quickly and gave new directions. However, great directions are only good if you can get your destinations into the unit to begin with. Mio needs to get better maps and more POIs if they want to compete with Garmin...especially since the price is coming down on the Garmins. My Garmin 650 was only $20.00 more than the Mio 350 and well worth it. This unit is going back.
excellent gps October 16, 2008
