OHREX SAT NAV REVIEW | Footage on roads and motorways

[@robertkees6048]

I've never seen so many roundabouts, I thought I was living in a YES song. But it's undeniable, you British folk are very charming, I've bought six of them.

[@JoshRamwell]

Looks great Travis!🙌

[@JamesTravis]

It was! Thanks Josh

[@robertkees6048]

The question that really matters is how quickly the unit can redirect me if I've made a directional mistake. Will it figure out a new route before I pass more streets and has to reconfigure again? I didn't see that critical test of a GPS's ability in the real world. Of course not for me, I don't make those kind of mistakes, for other people.

[@mrhaggit]

Am enjoying your videos, they are so helpful. Have 3rd test upcoming in the future, thank you for your hints and tips and friendly approach on your videos it is much appreciated 😊

Have you watched this? kzbin.info/www/bejne/hmaapn-lYqaCeNE

How to add new place such as ABC Store on Elm St and save

[@lesbailey2125]

Does it have campsites in the POIs ?

[@suecope102]

Got one for Christmas but it won't connect to the signal for sat nav

[@JamesTravis]

When I used the sat nav it worked perfectly fine. It could be bad weather or it might need the reset button pressing. Hopefully that will sort it out.

[@glasgowjohn7831]

second video I've watched on this and I'm definitely getting one cheers

[@ronnychacko136]

The satnav indicates which lane to use on some roundabouts but not all. Is there a reason it doesn't provide lane guidance for every roundabout? Are there other satnavs that give lane directions for all roundabouts?

[@JamesTravis]

I found the larger roundabout near to motorways helped with which lane to use.

[@KHoltzie]

I’m actually looking for a new one, a new nav system for my pickup (phone apps connectivity sucks sometimes) I was gonna go with one of those CarPlayBox thingies but maybe I’ll research up on this one too

[@leebfc1901]

On the video it seems to give direction in some parts relatively close to roundabout etc. Would you say it's a bit late or just right? Hard to tell when not driving and just watching. Thank you

[@JamesTravis]

Both, It depends. Some times it told you the direction late and other times it was ok.

[@davidwelham7974]

Looks good and reasonable priced as well.

[@JamesTravis]

Good sat nav.

[@truckeralvarez5932]

Ohrex is not the owner of the satnav data, it comes from a generic software used by many low-end satnavs. One thing that is very important to truck drivers is the versatility of import route plans from external sources, for example, What3Words. I did not see any Bluetooth capability.

[@42gp]

I have this Sat Nav. I am a HGV driver and I got this because it was cheap. It tried taking me onto roads which literally weren't even there. On the Sat Nav it was showing a right turn but there was not a right turn. Then on another occasion it was showing an exit on a roundabout which once again was not there. And another occasion it tried taking me into a construction site as it thought it was a through road.

[@JamesTravis]

That don't sound good. Sorry to hear about that.

[@rogerstansbie4879]

Am I missing something or is it not possible to just type in the Post Code to register your destination ?

[@FairladyS130]

Yeah, or the address.

[@KHoltzie]

Travis, can you get this one in The States as well, I was just curious as I plan to do a little further research on it!

[@JamesTravis]

According to their website it covers North America.

[@KHoltzie]

@@JamesTravis Oh cool, very nice, do I have to order a special one like non UK version or…???

[@KHoltzie]

@@JamesTravis i’ll do some more research on it, thanks for the info though

[@KHoltzie]

@@JamesTravis I’m just looking for something that’s better than my iPhone apps, the navigation isn’t that great on them, and the signal always goes in and out well in route which is kind of a bother

[@KHoltzie]

@@JamesTravis getting rerouted mid route isn’t exactly ideal when you’re already on the road you know??? 😆

[@Minas212]

Wow looks great. Better then using the phone

[@JamesTravis]

Yes it is

[@grandpaandlucas7054]

i bought one, its better then my truck sat nav

[@rtw777]

For a car, mobile phone in a holder + Google Maps (or Waze) would seem to be a better option.

[@JamesTravis]

Why?

[@CTC2002]

@@JamesTravis Waze is my favourite navigation app on my phone and better than any standalone satnav I’ve used. It’s community driven so informs you of user reported potential hazards, poor weather and police speed traps ahead.

[@leebfc1901]

Thank you

[@JamesTravis]

You're welcome

[@Minas212]

I'm the first one 😊

[@JamesTravis]

First on

[@Anita-jo9hv]

Pouvez vous parler en français

[@karimeasterbrook6292]

DON’T buy unless you want to spend your life going around in circles whilst lost. Ok on motorways but after that it will take you on a magical mystery tour

[@karimeasterbrook6292]

Ok on motorway but if you head for the country take thermals and a tent with you because you will NEVER find your way home.

[@truckeralvarez5932]

If it has Bluetooth and you were not aware, then you put the satnav in a low worth. OHREX N76 Bluetooth Sat Nav 798, 7 inch with UK Europe Maps 2024(Free Lifetime Update), Satnav for Car Truck Lorry HGV LGV Motorhome, Speed Cam Alert, Post codes, Lane Guidance

[@eddiejones2121]

Absolutely useless. I received mine on Monday afternoon, Tuesday was spent trying to get it to work, it wouldn't accept postcodes, it kept freezing, it told me I was in one village when in fact I was four miles away. This morning,( Wednesday) it went back Don't waste your hard earned.
