Well, lets take a look at what we have gathered so far.
The PAPAGO! Z1 is a basic navigation device, which does the job of directing you to your destination. Usability wise is pretty similar to Brand X 40 and 50, however the specifications tells you that you won't go wrong with the Z1. Also comes packed with the newly upgraded PAPAGO! X9 software, this has just gotta be great! This device has a high sensitivity touch screen as well which gets you going quick, without having to tap on the screen for 10 times and makes you screaming ARGH! 3D landmark makes your journey much convincing as landmarks around you seems to come alive right on your navigation device. What is MFM JV/LA? MFM is the most accurate maps you can find so far, and by using MFM's Junction View and Lane Assist, you can be rest assured you are on the right lane, without having to reroute every now and then.
And what makes the PAPAGO! so special? It's more than just a navigation device. It comes with a built in photo viewer, music player, and a video player as well! Wow! Isn't that just amazing? You pay for a reasonably priced navigation device, and yet you get more than what you expect! We never like meeting expectations, but we love to exceed them!
If you're seeking for a device with more functions like Voice Activation Command or even Traffic Message Channel (TMC), take a look at our other recommended model which is the R6300T. I am pretty sure PAPAGO! has more to offer compared to Brand X, and you pay lesser for more!
Looks like PAPAGO! Z1 does fair better compared to our rival Brand X. Not forgetting, its stylish design makes your life easier in future when selecting which GPS you would purchase in the coming future.
If you're intending to get yourself a PAPAGO!, pop down to your nearest dealer today or visit our online store at www.m3shoppe.com. PAPAGO! Z1! - Nice!

Hi bro, I reckon you have some FACTS incorrect.
ReplyDeleteI believe The X brand that you mentioned do have JCV and TA on MFM maps now.
Also, they have their own Travel Guides which I find very useful!
Just my 2 cents.
Cheers.
If you want to mention FACTS maybe you should get the FACTS right first... lol
ReplyDeleteHey Bro,
ReplyDeleteI second the comment stated by the gentleman above. JCV and LA if not mistaken started from Brand X years ago.
Also, you are comparing a China OEM product vs a full RnD by world's #1(if not mistaken). I would go for Brand X for their reputable brand and recognition with such little differences in $$
Your tabulation of comparison side by side, has many incorrect information which misleads alot of end user.
Just my 2.5 cents.
Thanks for the comments our fellow readers. We will further clarify this and update all! Cheers!
ReplyDeleteCome on lah if not good enough don't have to try to make yourself look good by saying other brand not good. @.@|||
ReplyDeleteThanks anonymous for your concern and we are looking to improve every second. Your opinions are much appreciated in order for us to grow quicker. Cheers!
DeleteBetter internal & external storage up to 8GB !! That helps up to have extra movie & song played ... Cool
ReplyDeleteThanks for all the comments our fellow readers/followers. We have clarified on the features that were mentioned and indeed you guys were right. However, the many upsides of the PAPAGO! Z1 gives it the umph! which you will not be able to find with the rival devices.
ReplyDeleteNot confident or unconvinced? Pop down to our showroom today and have a go at our demo device, I am sure you will be impressed! Cheers guys!

ReplyDeleteFrom a third party's point of view. =]
ooo how come the R6300 not there :P I was contemplating between Z1 and R6300 but decided to pay alittle more for the R6300. 9 months and still very good. Best of all i got a free update to their X9 last month when i visit their show room. I had an old 205W..not very friendly for me..so many steps. anyway now the unit got problem but cost alot to fix.. :(
ReplyDeleteWell in my opinion, if you want very affordable and good features, then go with Papago.
i know this may sounds silly but i really don't know how to add the songs or the movie into my papago T.T anyone can help?
ReplyDeleteI am also contemplating between the Z1 and R6300T. The price difference between them is around RM200. For the RM200 extra, you will get
ReplyDeleteTraffic Message Channel (TMC), >> Is this feature functioning in Malaysia yet??
Alternate Route function,
Voice activation.
Higher screen resolution.
Bottom line, is it worth the money for these extra features?
