The only reason I don't switch to Android is the downloadable (and updated) maps and real GPS. Absolutely irreplaceable when traveling. The quality of Here Maps is top notch too, plus they are integrated with a bunch of online features if you do have connection. Excellent real time traffic and public transportation info as well, just need some wi-fi. I also find it more accurate for driving directions than my Garmin. | |
