Hi Macca.
I have had the new HX2 now for nearly 18 months. I have it mounted in the middle of the front windscreen, so it’s easy to read for both driver and passenger and has never had any issues with heat.
Battery life? …….
well to be very honest I can not answer that one as I have it plugged in all the time. Just a note on this, the new unit now uses a USB C .
Unlike the old HX1, the street mapping is brilliant and has a very similar look to the off road screen, but more detail.
It is very easy to clear all the icons on the screen by the simple press of a button which is very handy, especially on the street mode.
The off road page is very detailed with zoom in levels perfect if you wanted to use it walking, similar to the new EOT.
If you do decide to buy one, you will not be disappointed, but look around for pricing. You can buy them for around $100 cheaper from many stores rather than direct from Hema. As I live in South Australia, I purchased it from our state motoring body, the RAA and then got extra discount for being a member.
All updates are done via your wifi settings, as per the same as the old HX1.
