Becker Z 200
Release year: 2008 ★ 2.7/5(29 ratings)
The new Becker Z 200 was designed to save time on every journey, starting from the moment the destination is entered on the display. Thanks to the extensive preloaded Navteq cartography covering 40 European countries and the innovative Sirf Instant Fix II technology, it is ready to go in just a few seconds, as it immediately detects satellite positions and thus reduces route calculation times compared to a less advanced GPS. And thanks to Becker WayOut technology, it also helps avoid traffic jams or slowdowns by recalculating the route based on Infoblu traffic updates in Italy and abroad, according to Premium TMC services where available.

Feature notes: The Becker Z 200 is much more than a satellite navigator; it is also a hands-free device thanks to Bluetooth technology, through which it can communicate with mobile phones. This way, it is possible to leave the phone in your pocket and make or receive calls comfortably, without taking your hands off the wheel, thus improving safety. But that's not all: among its multimedia functions are image viewing and playback of mp3 audio files and mp4 video files.
To make orientation easier for less experienced users, Becker has introduced on the Z 200 some navigation functions typical of its automotive products, such as Split screen, which places a pictogram with turn or lane change direction indications alongside the map display. In addition, there is the "lane assistant", which indicates in advance which lane to choose in order to follow the correct direction and proves extremely valuable especially in large cities, navigation even inside tunnels, and Reality View, namely the realistic display of motorway junctions that facilitates driving maneuvers, as well as 3D points of interest, all already present and highly appreciated in the previous product range. Route calculation can be performed by entering the destination address, geographic coordinates, or simply by clicking on one of the displayed points of interest.
