Mio products continue to make a splash with the Polish tech media. This time, it’s daily newspaper Gazeta Poliska Codziennie taking a shine to the Mio Spirit 487 GPS. 

The publication’s tech reviewer praise an array of functions and pluses on the 487, including the device’s slick design, which is described as easy on the eyes. He also liked the navigator’s speedy “wake-up time” and quick acquisition of the GPS signal.

The Spirit 487’s free two-year map updates was also worthy of mention in the article, as well as the built-in ability to rent additional maps. The writer liked how the device warned of approaching lane changes and turns well in advance.

The reviewer saved his highest praise for the Spirit 487’s Bluetooth connectivity, which transforms the device into a convenient speaker for the driver’s mobile phone.

Gazeta Poliska Codziennie is one of Poland’s leading national newspapers with a daily circulation of 170,000 copies.

The Mio Spirit 687 recently hit another homerun with the tech press. This time the positive review came from Polish online site Blogomotive.pl, and the author went so far as to say the 687 offered him his best GPS experience yet.

The reviewer began by admitting some skepticism based on past negative experiences with similar products. However, caution quickly turned to delight as he tried out the Spirit 687.

“It’s the best navigation I ever used,” he gushed. “And I’m not talking only about (devices) from the Mio range of navigators. I’m saying in general.”

High on the reviewer’s list of positives was on-the-fly route alterations compensating for traffic delays and other obstacles. He put the 687 through its paces on the normally congested roads between the cities of Warsaw and Kolobrzeg. The Spirit 687 suggested alternate routes around traffic that delivered him to his destination in record time.
