Officially announced less than two months ago, the Garmin-Asus M10 has just been launched in India, being the country’s first Windows Mobile 6.5.3 smartphone.
The M10 offers maps for 62 major Indian cities, Garmin turn-by-turn navigation, lane assistance, and a Ciao feature that keeps you informed on the roads your friends are traveling on.
The new Garmin-Asus smartphone also comes with a 3.5 inch WVGA (480 x 800) touchscreen display, accelerometer, Wi-Fi, A-GPS, 5MP autofocus camera, 4GB of internal memory, and MicroSD card support.
The Garmin-Asus series of GPS-oriented Nuvifone handsets has introduced a new mobile phone that’s a bit more affordable while providing all the same GPS features as its bigger brothers.
Recognizing that location is relevant to every aspect of every day, the Garmin-Asus M10 is designed with location information at its core and it delivers the most advanced location experience on a Windows phone. Navigation functions – available in both Hindi and English – are linked to frequently used applications such as calendar, contacts, email, internet browser, and messaging; making an exceptionally intuitive and smooth navigation experience. All of the maps come pre-loaded on the phone’s internal memory.
The M10 also has highway mode that tells drivers the next three upcoming street exits so they can plan ahead. The device is ready for automotive navigation out-of-the-box, and it includes everything a customer needs to use the device in a car, including a powered cradle and windshield mount
