Magellan Maestro 4700 Review

As you hold a Magellan Maestro 4700, you will instantly see its fine difference from other Maestro models. For one thing, it was given a larger and brighter 4.6-inch display, rounded corners and a shape that is easier to the hands.

Its larger screen display basically translates to readable and easier to read electronic maps. Also, this size of the screen is ideal for use in any car as it is not too bulky to mount on the dash to give you a blind side. It comes just in the right size.

Except for the power switch located on top of the Maestro 4700 unit, it has no other physical controls.

All its other applications and controls are actuated via its touch screen interface.

Giving you ‘your favorites at your fingertips', this model features one-touch operations, making it easy for you to locate or search landmarks in your maps, look for your route plans, create and locate your personalized bookmarks and open other applications.

Also, it is given a micro SD card slot, though not necessary, for all your backup data. It also has a USB connector for its power input from vehicle adapter cable. It can be charged using its AC power adapter.

With Magellan Maestro 4700, finding your favorite restaurant in any city, state or country would be easy. Thanks to its NAVTEQ maps, you get to access various locations in the United States, Puerto Rico and Canada. It carries up to 6 million points of interests, giving you a knowledgeable navigation and driving partner right in this compact device. Finding locations and applications is easy; all you need to do is tap your fingertips.

Both for business trips or vacation, the 4700 is loaded with easy-to-use premium features. One of which is the AAA tour book. This feature enables the device to get information about the best place to dine or stay in any city or country. The recommendations given by the AAA tour book applications will lead you to explore places that are worthy of your time or visit.

With its comprehensive mapping feature, Magellan Maestro 4700 is very able to give you highway lane assistance. With its realistic highway sign points, you can easily follow its directions.

As you approach interchanges and exits, it conveniently directs you to taking the lane even before your next turn, guiding you on how to get to your destination fast. In addition, its predictive traffic feature enables this device to quickly analyze past traffic patterns to help you plan and create a route and avoid known delays.

Extra features like the voice command capability enables you to navigate its gps applications by giving hands-free commands. For instance, saying "go home" or find "nearest gas" will automatically command the device to guide you on your way home or the way to the nearest gas station.

Its Bluetooth compatibility enables it to work with a compatible cell phone, giving you the chance to make and receive calls with better clarity, thanks to its noise-cancelling microphone.

In addition to its multi-destination and spoken street name guidance feature, it easily remembers where you parked your car especially in mall, stadium, university and other large parking lots.

Magellan is a brand that is no stranger to the GPS market. The manner that they designed the new Magellan Maestro 4700 simply says that they just know how to continuously satisfy their loyal customers.
