In Garmin's product description page, it introduces the GPS device's features and functionality which shows why Garmin is the product to get, "All in one, Garmin is the ONE". NUVI, an in-car-GPS device developed by Garmin, provides detailed maps and places of interest that comes with complimentary lifetime updates. Voice activated navigation, wifi and bluetooth are built in to allow users to navigate and answer calls safely hands-free.
NUVI allows users to tell them the full address before navigation, replies interactively to remind users that their hands can remain safely on the wheel. It also comes with a magnetic cradle that charges device when plugged in. An integrated driving recorder backups indisputable evidence in the event of accidents that can be viewed on a laptop.
Nuvi 4592 LM allows rerouting of path on-the-go, diverting the driver away from traffic, avoiding specific routes/tolls, sorts multiple destinations. It also has unique features such as predicting the driver’s favourite route (myTrends) and can even suggest eco-friendly routes (ecoRoute).
In TomTom’s product review page, it tells us about what to expect from the product, its functionalities and bugs. TomTom GO Live 1535M, a product developed by TomTom, provides several location searching applications such as Yelp, Expedia, Trip Advisor and Google. GO Live 1535M is also integrated with voice activated navigation and Bluetooth but there is no Wi-fi. The preview of traffic, fuel and speed cameras along the route are also integrated in the maps.
GO Live 1535M is able to recommend places of interests determined by home address, destination of the current route or city of choice. Setting destinations are also made easier with voice commands. GO Live 1535M is also capable of posting tweets on Twitter, with a touch of a button, to allow others to know your location and the estimated time of arrival. TomTom also links the GPS to a mobile application, MyDrive, which allows consumers to access their GPS.
In comparison, Nuvi has more components compared to GO Live with Wifi being the most obvious difference. Also, Nuvi has more useful functions than the GO Live as it allows hands-free navigation and phone calls while GO Live only voice commands for the setting of locations. Therefore, with the two points I feel that Nuvi has a better product than that of TomTom.

Thank you for your patience and for your effort, Derrick. This is a fairly detailed discussion of Nuvi and GO Live. What's missing is a clear thesis providing the reader with a better guide of the focus of your analysis essay. You need to foreshadow the comparison/contrast you do between these two products. That focus, the controlling idea, should happen in your thesis statement. Then you also need to clear topic sentences at the start of each body paragraph to provide direction for each supporting body paragraph. You have the info, but it is not appropriately organized.
ReplyDeleteThe other main problem is in your lack of correct citation info, both in-text and end-of-text. Where is the APA reference list?
Here are more areas to consider.
1) This assignment actually has a different title.
2) In Garmin's product description page, it introduces... >>>
Garmin's product description page introduces....
3) "All in one, Garmin is the ONE" >>> Is this a citation? Where is the citation info a la APA style?
4) detailed maps and places of interest ... >>> detailed maps and directions to places of interest ?
5) NUVI allows users to tell them the full address... >>> who tells whom what?
6) NUVI allows users to tell them the full address before navigation, replies interactively to remind users that their hands can remain safely on the wheel.
>>>
You need to use a coordinating conjunction to join these independent clauses.
7) APA reference list?
Let's work on this.
