i been using sygic on my s3 for 4 days now (3 more days trial then must purchase already). well, for s3, there is currently no competition. papago m9 doesn't work on s3. so i on have sygic. so, i can't comapre, but i get make comments on what it has to offer.
pros:
1. nice colours and good graphics. very clear on the roads ahead.
2. very precise on the gps. if sygic says u are 10meters from a junction, then in reality u are! the refresh rate is also very good
3. doesn' use lot of battery unlike waze.
4. the voice is clear and sexy. it give u exact instructions. for example it will say at the 3rd exit turn left. then u count 1st, 2nd, turn....perfect all the time.
5. it knows to take minor roads to your destination, if it is shorter.
cons:
1. some roads are not updated. for example it advice me to double back on a double line highway!. coz last time u can do that. but now the road has been upgraded already but not reflected on the map. but its not a big issue, and there are only a few occurance like that.
2. some of the point of interest not in my search function. for example i want to go to semenggoh. but when i type that in my search, cannot find. but good thing it allows me to quick go to an area nearby and select the semeggoh from the map. so at the end i still manage to choose my destination, but sometimes is not straighforward.
3. doesn't know the traffic situation, so can't give me good advice on the fastest route by considering the traffic. not in my town at least.
so is it good. well good, but not perfect. definitely better then waze. but waze is free.
Well for now, the only thing that I can say that the users of Sygic in your place (should be Kuching) isn't that much yet to get enough traffic situation. For now that is. But Sygic should really update itself from time to time, try emailing them?
