Review: Garmin Drive UK mt-s sat nav. - I needed to get a new sat nav and decided on this model as it's similar to the previous Garmin that i have. It's easy to set up and easy to operate and you have got lifetime map updates.
Review: Great budget unit, charge it first, get the one with handsfree calling. - If you realise that it needs charging in a wall charger, a kindle plug type will do, before you start things would be a whole lot better. Maybe a note to that somewhere in the box would be helpful. The instructions are useless. Charge it fully, attach it to the computer, download the interface and then up date the software. Easy peasy but not if you try it out of the box with the unit uncharged. It's a nice unit, large screen, excellent mount , again, instructions would be nice but hey ho. Wish I'd bought the Bluetooth one that takes handsfree calls now. It's good but pay a bit more if you can to get Bluetooth.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How long is the battery life if not connected to the car power source?**
A: Not very long it doesn’t seem to hold a charge long

**Q: will this unit display actual time, time of arrival and speed on the display at the same time?**
A: The Unit displays expected time of arrival which is updated throughout the journey.  Yes it shows your speed.  It does not show remaining distance, only distance to the next "turn" or exit to next road.  I think it shows current time too (but without running it up not certain.   There are a few other display features that can be switched on too.    However, Unit does need to be plugged in all the time as the battery life is dismal - if you're out of the car you need a power pack to keep it running.

**Q: Will a garmin gtm traffic lead work with this for traffic updates instead of using a smart-phone?**
A: Not in the UK after June 30 2021. Garmin are turning DAB traffic off.

**Q: Can you enter the size and/or weight of the vehicle in order to avoid narrow roads or width/height restricted roads? i have a car& lwb van.**
A: Not sure about vehicle size, sorry, but Avoidance settings does include things like "unpaved roads"

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Basic but quick + simple
*by D***P on 28 September 2021*

Finds satellites and gets position VERY quickly - a big improvement on our previous satnav. This is a fairly basic model; there's a single (perfectly acceptable) voice, and no facility (that I can find) for uploading lists of favourite places, waypoints, or points of interest. When entering a destination, you choose between either postcode, or town/street. It asks for town, then house number, then street. But if you just need to get to the town centre, there's no way to do that; it needs a specific street name, though not house number. So you have to guess for likely town-centre names (High Street, Station Road, Church Street etc), which when you're just trying to navigate town-to-town is a bit of a pain. The screen seems overly-sensitive to touch, so scrolling is very difficult; it keeps interpreting the touch as a click; same problem with zooming in/out. But, the navigation instructions are clear, and a big improvement on some systems. I'd personally like to see two turns ahead (i.e. arrow icon not just for the next junction, but the one after too). There are a few occasions when you can get wrong-laned because of adjacent junctions, but it will often give some hints (e.g. "take 3rd exit toward Sometown") so you can use street signs to assist in some cases. Unlike previous satnav, its battery will keep it running for about 20 minutes when not plugged in, so it's possible to setup routes etc from the comfort of indoors before plugging in. There are no bells and whistles on this, but "it does what it says on the tin" and does so simply and clearly.
