Mio H610 specs

Jun 23, 2006 gps navigation, mio

The H610 was announced in March this year, but information on it was sketchy. Luckily last night we were given more information on it and allowed some hands-on time.

The H610 features maps of 24 European countries pre-installed on 2GB of flash memory, with around 1GB left over for personal use. It runs on a 400MHz processor and according to Mio has an impressive 18 hour battery life. It also has a 320 by 240pixel screen that displays 65,000 colours, MMC/SD memory card slot, an MP3 player, video player and Mio’s WorldMate travel application. It’s still being tweaked for the H610, but WorldMate will feature helpful extras for travellers, such as dictionaries and currency converters.

We were really impressed with the H610’s size, it felt light and as you can see fit perfectly in the palm of our hands. It’s also very attractive and has an iPod-esque look to it, with its white case and smooth curves. We were told it will be available later this summer but pricing is being kept under wraps. Expect a full review soon.
