We have changed our manufacturer for the HX-2 series.
Some changes between the HX-2 and the HX-2+ include:
- Different body styling
- New hard cover carry case
- The HX-2+ has increased storage and memory
- The HX-2 has a larger battery capacity
- The HX-2+ has a different charging configuration:
- Integrated charging cable and cigarette lighter
- L-shaped USB-C output
- The mounting system has a different configuration, which may sit differently in your vehicle. (Please see the images below, left is for the HX-2+ and right is for the HX-2)
- The following remains the same or similar between the two models.
- Same 7” screen size
- Similar performance and stability
- Same software experience and features
- Same access to map updates, software updates, database updates, and access to the Hema Maps Cloud.
- Regardless of which navigation device you choose, you still receive Hema map’s three year Gold Membership* for the Hema Maps Cloud.
Down to the nitty gritty: What do we think?
We love both units and will leave it up to you to decide which unit you prefer
HX-2 will continue to be available while stocks last: https://hemamaps.com/products/hema-hx-2-plus-navigator.
