cranbers Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 I would suggest doing a search on the 8120 on here, there was a great comparison thread awhile ago. As far as pros and cons, same thing. Do a search, some great conversations already took place, many many times before about that. You can use the program called avic feeds to do a lot of things from add poi's, wall paper and custom color schemes. The wall paper only shows up upon boot up though and isn't seen again after that point. A quick low down on the 8120, it has a much bigger screen etc, but the pioneer has a much better icons, graphics, voice recognition for the ipod etc. Basically you are paying for the screen size though. The 2.0 update released in oct has fixed most major issues, and the pineer unit is great now. I love mine and its become a pleaurable part of my driving experience.

djkid Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 With the Avic Feeds program off of Pioneer's website you can easily change the splash screen to what ever you want. Plus you can add custom POIs and icons as well. Go to their website and type "feeds" into the search and it comes up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
terron Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 Basically you are paying for the screen size though. Actually, the 8120 dominates the F series in three other areas; 1) Zoning. DVD Vid/Audio playing in the back, navi and music in the front. The F series can't do this. 2) Screen response. Its like using an iPod, its just phenominally fast and really makes the F series look like an embarassment. 3) Navigation. Garmin is the leader in Navi; The F series does a great job of Navi, but isn't as accurate in directions sometimes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
