GPS Review – Grand FINAL: TomTom vs NDrive !

TomTom was waiting for his opponent in the FINAL today and, after yesterday’s semi, NDrive is here to try to match the GPS giant.

Unfortunately, although given a good opportunity for a spot in this final, Sygic Drive didn’t manage to take advantage of it and ended his run for the title.

It’s clear that TomTom and NDrive are the two best GPS software I had the chance to review. The first, a big name for many years in the industry and the second, a somewhat of a newcomer, but with great skills and a lot of innovation.

Let’s see who wins today and takes home the title! (still couldn’t find anything better that “GPSreviewer’s best GPS software” but I’m opened to suggestions) 😀

GPS Review – SEMIFINAL: NDrive vs Sygic Drive

After the first semifinal, it looks like TomTom is in for the final tomorrow. But who is going to follow him there, well, that’s a question which we can hopefully answer today.

Because today we have the second and last semifinal, where the winner of my third review, NDrive battles it out with the “lonesome software”, 🙂 Sygic Drive, the one for whom I did not have an opponent for a first review of it’s own.

So, it looks like Sygic was lucky enough to get a spot in the top 4… let’s see if it is capable to take up NDrive and fly to the final:

GPS review: NDrive vs Route66!

I was telling you the other days that a new, “shocking” review is close. Well, the wait is over, and today I have for you a comparison between the navigation software of NDrive and that of Route66.

Why did I say “shocking”? Because the results are a little bit unexpected: NDrive is one of the best nav software that I’ve reviewed until now (I have to compare it to the big boys also, to see what’s it really capable of) and, on the other hand, Route66 which, sad to say, is one of the less performing software here at GPSreviewer.

Here’s what I’m talking about:

1. Computer graphics / Display performance

	NDrive	Route66
In 524Mhz processor – Frames per second in routing and non routing	10 FPS	1 FPS
Support of Anti-aliasing on routing	Yes	Yes
Support of LandMark	Yes, with dynamic view on touch	No
3D free camera view on routing and map	Yes	No
In navigation get street or POI names by pics in LCD	Yes	No
Configurable map design based on templates	Yes	Yes
Uses real 3D aerial navigation photos	Yes	No
