We now have a review for the recently released Acer V200 GPS navigation system.

Acer V200 surprised the reviewers with its amazing price at only £119 and a great set of features expected from an entry level GPS navigation system.

The time to first fix was very fast and route calculations both quick and accurate; our attempts to throw the V200 off its course and mess up a new route calculation failed admirably. You’ll also find the option to upgrade some of the basic features on offer as there’s an SD card slot to allow more extensive maps to be installed, although this does get a bit fiddly.

If you don’t mind having to plug-in the 1100mAh every 3 hours (being optimistic) into your car charger this may just be the right sat nav system for someone who’s on a tight budget. Acer V200 is currently £121 on Amazon but if you looked elsewhere online you may find it for a couple of pounds cheaper. If the exchange rate between $ and £ wasn’t so crazy this could’ve made it to our sub $200 sat nav system list.
