Hello Bassam, I've been "battling" with NewerStone over this and voice navigation (which my unit doesn't seem to have) for several weeks now. If and when I get a response, I'll let you know. Since they advertise these 2 features on Amazon.com, I've notified Amazon of this matter. You might want to do this, as well.

Hey Joseph, I don't know. It dose not seem to work for me. But I may not have something set right. I was more interested in navigating then anything else, which it dose very good. If you contact Emprum at support@emprum.com I'm sure they could answer your question.

I have lifetime FREE updates of software and maps. I'm very happy with the GPS. I just want to re-find that wonderful screen again.

I would update the maps when you purchase it. I am still using mine with a few small glitches in the maps and it isn't a big deal, but I would update them if I were going to Europe. When I was in Italy in 2012 they worked flawless!

Cool, thanks. It looks like this is exactly the phone I have been holding out for: GPS, awesome camera, etc...Does the GPS work flawlessly right out of the box, or are updates necessary?

Yes we believe it is good for navigation. We have purchased 2 in the last 4 years. It has good tracking abilities and you can "Mark a Position" any time you want so you have a place you can go back to if needed.

@ alexanderaku, I just bought a Nav edition 5800 a couple of weeks ago. I had the same questions as RY Chua has. Hence did the research and found out the differences. That said, I still bought this phone and love it. I personally can't comment of whether the update on Xpress music has made that screen more sensitive than the current Nav version or not. Although kinetic scrolling is a plus in the new firmware. Apart from that I liked the chrome strip on the Nav compared to the Xpress music, which comes with the same color strip as the rest of the phone (check out the pics of the Nav edition vs. Xpress music). Also, I bought it from a different seller and paid a little extra as amazon didn;t have this price then, so this price is great for the Nav edition.

The maps are Navteq. Same company that does Jeep and Dodge factory navigation. With the HD radio this unit has, I get road conditions and traffic updates. And you can get updates thru JVC website for the unit.

I just got it a couple months ago. I can't imagine it wouldn't have to be updated. I am really pleased with it. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

As far as I can tell, the maps are current. You get regular updates after you register your GPS (just log in with it connected to your computer).

not quite like google maps' traffic layer on android/iphone, but yes there is traffic info. the navigation recommends alternate routes that you can preview & accept, or ignore at times traffic gets heavy

there is no navigation built in, it would have to be what you've got in your iphone when it's hooked up

no your navigation can only be updated thorugh a download to the vehicle's hard drive

Anything added to thumb drive or iPhone was re-indexed and visible.FWIW - I bought this unit sometime ago, and never use it for Navigation now. Even when purchased, maps needed updating and they wanted $70 for the update. Unit is used now for Music, and Blue Tooth phone (iPhone) only.

Yes it don't have the nav buttons. My system navigation is built in so I can just click on it instead of pushing the button
