It's a significantly smaller screen with no touch screen capability, so much clunkier to pan and zoom. You stated you wanted navigation and mapping in the OP as I recall, the 530 is not great at that. It will navigate and show you turn by turn, but less info on the map. It's a good unit for somebody wants the basic data screen with configurable metric information.
