Is there anyone from Singapore who can tell me more about GPS for cars?

Question

I like to know more about GPS for cars. I am looking to get one, wondering if I can get a relatively good one for SGD$200 and below? One that tells you where to turn and so on (with voice directions). Where can I get them and do I have to subscribe to GPS to be able to use the GPS equipment in my car? Would be good if you can tell me everything I need to know about using GPS in Singapore. Thanks :)

Answer 1

SGD200 get will you a set which allows you to row your boat home. In short, absolutely no features except pointing you the general directions which you already input manually beforehand. Look at around $1000 for near top of the line model. You need to be computer savvy to save yourself a bundle of money by downloading yourself.
It is very challenging for a GPS to navigate in dense cities with underground tunnels like CTE and tall buildings. I don't think Singapore has any GPS assisting beacons. Even if they have, Temasick will charge you an arm and a leg for them.
