4.8" Wide and Slim Display

Bluetooth Handsfree Communication

Using integrated Bluetooth® wireless technology, focus on the road ahead instead of your phone. By pairing your Bluetooth®-enabled phone to your Nav-U portable satellite navigation system you can make and receive calls on the go.

Gesture Command

With a touch-screen comes control via simple, on-screen finger movements. Commonly used commands such as ‘take me home’ may be accessed by gesturing an inverted ‘V’ on the screen versus paging through numerous menu screens.

Pre-Loaded Maps and Content

The NV-U83T comes pre-loaded with Map Content covering the entire United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico. Enjoy powerful, portable navigation out of the box!

TTS (Text To Speech)

TTS (Text to Speech) also eliminates second-guessing when making a turn; the device utilizes spoken commands ensuring you are able to follow the directions by street names.

Super Suction Cup Mount

Using the Sony-unique Super Suction Cup, mounting a Nav-U portable satellite navigation system to either the dashboard, console, or windshield in virtually any vehicle is quick and easy. Stable and secure while driving, the Nav-U portable satellite navigation system can be easily removed whenever you want to take it with you.

Dual view - 3D Junction Guide

Dual View capability displays dynamic route information, in addition to the conventional map view, to provide an even clearer view of what’s around the bend or in a highway merge scenario, which Junction to take.

POSITION plus™

Even if GPS signals are temporarily interrupted, such as when driving in a tunnel, the Nav-U NV-U83T will keep you on-track. Position Plus uses multiple sensors to monitor your position relative to the map, so you can continue without worry of losing your way.

RDS-TMC1 Traffic Messaging Channel

Step away from standard GPS mapping and towards a more complete navigation solution. Real Time Traffic Information radio reception allows the NV-U83T to constantly monitor relevant traffic conditions and automatically re-route you around trouble spots!

Happy User I've owned this for nearly 2 years and totally enjoy it. It has rarely let me down, map updates could be faster but overall it is a great product. March 3, 2011
Gps blue tooth The blue tooth works but you need to be 2 feet away and talk load for the other person to hear you. Otherwise it has been very usefull. The updating feature works great. It should also have an option to take main roads or back roads. April 20, 2009
Handy box, needed more functionality... I've owned this amazing GPS unit for two days, but thats all it is to me... Box says 4.8" screen, Bluetooth, MS Pro Duo, Audio output, and SONY. Out of box no mp3/4 capabilities? Why the card slot and headphone out? Bluetooth is ONLY for phones (barely support Motorola, no phone/address book retrevial). Qwerty keyboard and touchscreen would make a very nice Laptop/PS3 input device... Someone in RnD droped the ball, would have paid original MSRP for all that w/o GPS. As it stands though, I paid a third of the retail and it looks as though this'll be another failed experiment for Sony.... April 20, 2009
Get the updates I got this NV-U83T when it first came out. It had some glitches but the Sony team has done a few updates and it is now a very good unit. The latest update has added a photo viewer and gas station and foor quick tabs. I like this unit alot! January 8, 2009
