Once you go into MioMap, there are other settings options as Note the Settings option in the screen shot above. In the main menu screen below, you can see options for audio, video and pictures. This unit does it all, and that is its strong suit. To see how the Mio C520 compares to other units, check out my Mio GPS comparison chart. The C520 features text-to-speech, so you’ll get "turn left on Highway 128" instead of just "turn left." Heck, this device can even play videos! If you don’t want all those bells and whistles, be sure to check out the budget-priced Mio C220.

The Mio C520 comes pre-loaded with TeleAtlas maps of the U.S., Canada and Puerto Rico. It offers high-end features at a very reasonable price point.īefore we get into the details, lets talk about the basic feature set.
I was impressed from the moment I took the unit out of the box – this GPS receiver looks great and feels great. This one is going to give Garmin a run for their money. I’ve spent the last ten days or so trying out the Mio C520, also known as the Mio DigiWalker C520. For current recommendations, please refer to our auto GPS buyers guide or check out our other Mio GPS reviews. Some say the Mio is cheap and is junk I paid less than $200.00 for mine brand new from a major electronics store and paid $300.00 for the garmin at a members only store.UPDATE: This model has been discontinued. I can hit a button and can recalculate the route, view the itinerary, edit the route, find information on what roads I will travel, any tolls to be paid, and do a flyover to see my exact route from start to finish. The Mio has a feature to add speed and red light cameras on the unit, you can chose different map colors for day and night,user data management,add and name your poi’s and have them appear on the screen as you near them, and the best thing I like is the split screen effect, were you can view your route on one side and see your route distance, the time it will take you to travel that distance, mph, eta, current time, distance to your next turn and turn direction all on one screen. They both have some of the same features like a caculator,currency converter, unit converter,text to speech, millions of poi’s, find destinations by typing in coordinates and thats where the simularities end. The garmin has a fm transmitter the Mio does’nt. For one I can adjust my routes by bypassing roads I dont want to take I cant do that with the garman, the Mio also has bluetooth the Garmin does not. Had my C520 for six weeks and just got a Garmin 750 a week ago from sideXside testing for routing the Garmin cant touch the Mio.
