Specs
Pros
Pro Safe projection like hands free heads up display
GPS Navigation & Maps Sygic offers an in app purchase to add on a Heads Up Display for the app. This works for nighttime driving by placing ones device up by the windshield and the device will reflect all information in the windshield for a convenient hands free experience that is on the level of where ones eyes already are.
Pro Easily assess location with 3D Navigation
GPS Navigation & Maps Sygic provides a very detailed 3D world during navigation, with elevated hills and even city buildings which makes for a more realistic view of where one is in comparison to their surroundings.
Pro Commercial Map Data
Utilizes commercial data for its maps that are supplied by TomTom Maps. While not strictly better it can have more up-to-date map data than OSM. This is also the reason for the the good address data.
Cons
Con Poor map viewing
Sygic's interface is tailored to navigation. While viewing maps in 2D is possible, it populates the map with a bunch of POI icons which detract from street names. The biggest issue is how easy it is to select something or start navigation when zooming in/out.
Still usable for map viewing though.

Flagged Pros + Cons
Con Very bad map accuracy
Maps and speed limit information very much outdated and inaccurate!!! Also, voice guidance coming much later than the need to do the manoeuvres. Just waste of money!!!
Con Bad map accuracy
Even newest maps seem outdated and have many mistakes or inaccuracies. Entire ranges of house numbers are absent in some streets; 3d buildings are only present in some segments.
Pro Convenient offline navigation
Internet connection is not needed in order to navigate, maps and directions can be downloaded beforehand when one knows there will be no data connection for them to use.
