HP iPaq 310 Travel Companion review: HP iPaq 310 Travel Companion

Hp ipaq 310 travel companion.

hp travel companion

Last year, HP introduced its HP iPaq rx5900 Travel Companion , a sleek gadget that combined the powers of a PDA and a portable navigation system into one solution. It was the first GPS device for the company, and it enjoyed moderate success with our readers . Now, HP has decided to embark on its first GPS-only venture with the new HP iPaq 310 Travel Companion. It's a sleek device with an exceptionally beautiful and sharp screen, and it has attractive features on the inside as well, including text-to-speech, integrated Bluetooth, and 3D building renderings. Unfortunately, things turned ugly as soon as we hit the road. The iPaq 310 was awful at route recalculations, giving us baffling directions and roundabout routes to our destination. In addition, the voice prompts were difficult to hear and understand. It's a shame because we really wanted to like this device, but HP needs to work out some bugs before we're willing to fork over the $$449 for the portable nav system. In the meantime, if you're looking for a midlevel to advanced in-car GPS, we'd suggest the Mio DigiWalker C520 or the Garmin Nuvi 660 .

The Bottom Line

Design Though the HP iPaq 310 Travel Companion doesn't offer a remarkably different design than other portable navigation systems, it's still one sleek device. It sports an attractive dark plum chassis and black soft-touch finish on the back, making for a handsome addition to any car interior. The iPaq 310 also has a slender profile (4.3 inches wide by 3.4 inches high by 0.7 inch deep; 6.6 ounces) so you can easily transport it between vehicles or pack it in your suitcase for use with a rental car while on a trip.

On the front, you'll find a spacious 4.3-inch TFT touch screen that shows off 65,000 colors at a sharp 800x480 pixel resolution that makes maps and text look extra crisp and vibrant. It's one of the best displays we've seen on a GPS device to date, and we were able to read it in various lighting conditions, including bright daylight. You can adjust the backlight levels, and there's a night mode option that will automatically switch the map colors at nighttime for better viewing. The touch screen was responsive to our commands, though the system itself can occasionally be sluggish; that can make it seem like the screen isn't immediately responding to your touch. The onscreen keyboard is on the cramped side, so users with larger digits may have a hard time entering addresses with just their fingertips. Fortunately, there's a stylus on top of the unit for more precise text entry.

For the most part, the HP user interface is intuitive and easy to understand. The main menu page presents you with five clear options: Navigation, Entertainment, Contacts, Extras, and Settings. That said, once you dive deeper into these selections, the function of all the different buttons isn't always obvious. The user's manual is pretty barebones, but it at least explains the purpose of each icon.

The Power button is located right above the display, while there's an SD expansion slot on the left side. To the right, you'll find a reset hole, a mini USB port, a 3.5mm headphone jack, an external antenna jack, and a multipurpose jog wheel that you can use to adjust the volume and backlight, scroll through and select the various menus, or zoom in and out of maps.

The HP iPaq 310 Travel Companion comes packaged with an AC adapter, a car charger, a USB cable, a leather protective case, a vehicle mount (windshield and dash), and reference material.

Features The HP iPaq 310 Travel Companion was built from scratch and no longer uses TomTom's navigation software. Instead, it uses HP's own navigation software and comes preloaded with TeleAtlas maps of the United States and Canada. As with most portable navigation systems, you can get directions to a specific address, a point of interest (POI), a location from your Favorites or recently visited list, or your home address. Once you've entered your destination, routes can be calculated in several methods, including shortest, fastest, and most economical, and you can instruct the system to avoid certain road types and maneuvers, such as highways, toll roads, and U-turns. There will also be an iPaq-dedicated Web site where you can plan your trips beforehand and then send them the iPaq 310. This is a nice option if you have time to preplan your journey since you can take advantage of your computer's full screen and keyboard to enter all the information. Unfortunately, this feature was not live at the time of this writing, so we couldn't check it out. HP says the site should be ready for public use by late November but didn't give a specific date. Other navigation goodies include automatic route recalculation and safety camera warnings.

The iPaq 310 offers text- and voice-guided directions in English, Spanish, or French. In addition, the unit has text-to-speech functionality so you'll hear actual street names instead of generic voice prompts. Maps are presented in 2D or 3D view, and while driving a specified route, the map screen will show you the distance to and direction of your next turn as well as the street name, your current driving speed, estimated time of arrival, and other useful information. One cool aspect about the iPaq 310 is that you get 3D renderings of buildings. This capability isn't available for all buildings but includes most major landmarks, which can be helpful in getting your bearings in unfamiliar areas since it gives you a visual reference point.

The iPaq 310 also features integrated Bluetooth, so you can pair your Bluetooth-enabled cell phone or smartphone with the iPaq 310 and use it as a hands-free speaker system. Once connected, you can either use the touch screen to accept or reject calls. Also, if a number is listed with a POI, there's an option to dial out directly from the iPaq 310. Unfortunately, the system doesn't automatically transfer your phone's contact or call history list, though you can synchronize your device with your PC to transfer Outlook contacts. Again, sadly, this feature wasn't available at the time of this review so we weren't able to try it out.

For entertainment, there's a built-in music and video player. Using the expansion slot, you can load up an SD card with your favorite MP3, WMA, WMV, and AVI music and video files, and check them out on the iPaq 310. The players are pretty rudimentary with just the basic functions--play, pause/stop, rewind, fast forward--but it does support playlist creation. Other extras include a calculator, a clock, a picture viewer, and a set of games.

Performance We took the HP iPaq 310 Travel Companion out for a test drive in San Francisco, and from a cold start under clear skies, it took about 3 to 4 minutes for the receiver to get a fix on our position, while subsequent starts were almost instantaneous. During everyday drives around the city, the iPaq 310 did a good job of tracking our movements, and it was pretty cool to see the 3D building renderings.

We entered our standard trip from the Marina District to CNET's downtown headquarters, and the iPaq 310 was able to quickly return with an accurate route. Disappointingly, the voice prompts were a bit soft even with the volume at its highest level and there was a bit of reverberation. Also, the text-to-speech directions weren't as smooth as some of the other GPS devices we tested as it mangled and chopped up the pronunciation of some street names. However, more concerning is the system's ineptitude at route recalculations. We missed a number of turns to test this functionality, and while the iPaq 310 was quick to come up with new directions, they were completely circuitous. Instead of coming up with a new route, it would try to have us go back to the point where we missed the actual turn instead of plotting a new course from our current location.

We were able to successfully pair the HP iPaq 310 with the RIM BlackBerry Curve and had no problems making calls. Multimedia performance was mediocre. Given the soft-spoken directions, we weren't surprised to find that songs sounded weak and hollow through the systems speakers. We experienced similar results with video, but on the upside, the audio and picture were always synchronized and picture quality was good.

FOLLOW THAT VOICE

Calling HP’s Travel Companion a GPS unit just isn’t fair. The 4.3-inch screen is huge, and 3-D technology means maps can be viewed topographically or at street level—making for foolproof (and fun) navigation. On the road, mate it with a Bluetooth cell phone and it doubles as a hands-free device. And, natch, it talks. Electronic maps feature text-to-speech. Especially cool: This thing is battery-operated, so you can use it in the car, then just take it off the dash and go when it comes time to explore a new city on foot. On a longer trip? You’ve got audio and video playback as well. 6.6 oz; 2GB flash; Bluetooth, GPS; ipaq.com

HP iPAQ 314 Travel Companion review

A compact and powerful sat nav, only let down by its speakers.

hp travel companion

TechRadar Verdict

With a whole host of good features, it's disappoiting that this device should fall down on something so important as it's audible directions

Good screen

Easy to follow

Nice styling

Poor quality speaker

Why you can trust TechRadar We spend hours testing every product or service we review, so you can be sure you’re buying the best. Find out more about how we test.

With a slim design and rounded edges, the iPAQ 314 Travel Companion (£246 inc. VAT) slips easily into the pocket.

The 4.3-inch display has a resolution of 800 x 400 pixels, and offers a sharper picture than most of its rivals. It's bright enough to use even in direct sunlight, and colours are vibrant and accurate.

Functions are carried out using on-screen menus and buttons, with only a couple of hardware keys for power and volume settings.

Clear screen

Unlike many satellite navigation devices, the screen is mostly clear from buttons when on the move. However, a host of secondary buttons appear when you tap the screen.

This is ideal, as it allows a good level of control without compromising map space. The on-screen keypad is large enough for comfortable use, but the numbers are on a separate screen.

The iPAQ accepts full postcodes, but it requires a space to be entered in the middle. The mapping is clear and concise with a variety of 2D and 3D viewpoints available. A night mode switches the maps to darker colours, reducing reflections.

As well as highlighting over ten million POIs (Points of Interest), the Travel Companion includes 3D images of the most famous landmarks.

Weak speaker

The GPS chip is a SiRF Star III - the fastest and most accurate adapter currently available. We found satellites were located rapidly, and the iPAQ was quick to re-route us if we took a wrong turning.

The speaker on the rear of the device is small though, and on our review unit was not loud enough to be heard in faster driving conditions.

Bluetooth is built-in, letting you use the Travel Companion as a hands free kit for your mobile phone. However, the poor quality speaker made this function next to useless.

The excellent screen, clear mapping and neat styling help the iPAQ Travel to impress, but those wanting audible directions to accompany the visual ones should avoid this device until the sound quality is improved.

The TechRadar hive mind. The Megazord. The Voltron. When our powers combine, we become 'TECHRADAR STAFF'. You'll usually see this author name when the entire team has collaborated on a project or an article, whether that's a run-down ranking of our favorite Marvel films, or a round-up of all the coolest things we've collectively seen at annual tech shows like CES and MWC. We are one.

Batman has Robin, Sherlock has Watson. Hell, even Mr. Burns has his ever-attentive Smithers. So it's reasonable that globe-hopping travelphiles should have an equally dedicated, trustworthy, loyal accomplice, right?

One of the best guides we've found (besides that Icelandic supermodel with an infallible sense of direction) is the new HP Travel Companion 310. It's a taco-size GPS unit adorned by an easy to read 4.3-inch, 480 x 800-resolution touchscreen and punctuated by elegantly simple controls. Maps are detailed and effortless to read, coming in either 2-D or 3-D flavors. The 3-D maps are especially useful when you're lost - the realistic representations of buildings and elevated streets can help you easily gain your bearings after straying off course.

After you've reached journey's end (or are flying smoothly en route) the 310 has a few more tricks up its digital sleeve. Play MP3s, watch video or kill time in one of the included games. Feeling chatty? Sync the 310 to your cellphone via Bluetooth and use the GPS device as a hands-free speaker. Hey that's even better than the Icelandic supermodel - she won't even take our calls.
