Don't only look for those Navigator but lack in Maps update-lah.

Some maps might hv better graphic & etc but when comes to POIs & new roads & etc..You can't even find inside the maps.

Other than Garmin & Papago which having weekly & Monthly updates respectively from malfreemaps or malsingmaps (For Garmin wth Junction view), Other Navigators are really pain in the ass...Even Ovimaps..superior interm of UI & etc but lack in road & POIs..

Even the SKVE and LEKAS highways already in malfreemaps since last year still not updated in the latest Ovimaps, google maps & etc

and BTW, for the latest LATAR expressway, even before opening, malfreemaps already updated the maps!

Just follow screen instruction after DL but remember to choose papago X5 otherwise it will not work. Thereafter just copy the whole 31 files to your SD card under NaviSea>Maps>Malaysia folder smile.gif

same maps lah but outdated. MFM=malfreemaps. the link I given is direct from the original mapper themselve.

Anyway, the review on Sygic maps also featured in MFM site here:
https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1945731

Really impressive & as others mentioned much better UI & graphic than papago/Garmin..too bad as those users said- lack of maps updates & detail maps for Malaysia

lack of map updates doesn't effect the usability of this navi, i tried getting lost in some back roads inside a city before and it took me (using the shortest route) out of there, this navi is very accurate and effective

well it's better than papago that won't work on devices with low gps receiving like the desire HD. it takes forever to lock gps using papago, it takes about 5 seconds for aura. I'll take the long route any day because I'll actually REACH MY DESTINATION before the gps locks on papago, thank you

plus, this is malaysia, they r ALWAYS blocking, fixing, changing roads, what's the point of updating the map when it will be outdated every week or so. What we need is an accurate navi that will get us out of a fix when we needed it the most, fast response to route changing and reliable. and aura has the most POIs (and very update too), this is what u needed most when u go to a place u don't know anything about. If u travel a lot u will agree with me on this

Your arguement reminded me of another guy in Nokia N8 thread that mati-mati wanna protect the superiority of Ovimaps compare to Garmin smile.gif ..So I don;t a substative testing comparing the routing & also the detail of Garmin-Malfreemaps compare wth Ovimaps.

He even highlight the superiority of ovimaps routing but from my testing- Ovimaps routing is really bullshit biggrin.gif ..Well, the Highways that I mentioned earlier that were completed since early 2010..Till Today already >1.5 yrs..stilll not updated yet in ovimaps..well, probably is sygic/aura & googlemaps too.

An updated maps is way more important & so do the routing, POIs search & etc...I already in the GPS since early stage of GPS started in Malaysia...I was using the 1st batch of available maps by malsingmaps and that time so dissapointed that the whole of Puchong, only about 50% coverage. That's started my contribution and learning to contribute to the communities...Tnx god, by now, roads surrounding Puchong is updated in Garmin/papago malfreemaps weeks or even months before residents or highway completed smile.gif

BTW, comparing to those maps by sygic/Aura, they are just commercial based maps & not as detail & updated as those community based mapps....Give yopu an example...This area in Puchong Bdr Puteri, the new shop houses & also the new Section 6 has just been completed and the road in the shoplots only half tarmac-ted when I mapped it (Via MTB) on Sunday...Well, It will be updated./publish next Monday...just check how updated is malfreemaps... rclxms.gif

wow u so free to write so much stuff here, and who's protecting what now??? I'm not protecting Aura, it's just I've used both papago and Aura before, and it's my personal preference of using Aura, that's all
