I own 2 navee scooters. I own the s40 which I got from an Amazon resell warehouse for $100 and I have the S65 which I found on sale for $379 I think. Both are pretty good, but the S65 feels better, although I know it's older. They've been good so far. My S65 states it has 40 mile range, I'm 230 lbs and it consumes about 15 miles of range in order to go 10 miles. Although this is based on doing about 2 uphills and doing max speed of 20mph quite often. Pretty sure I can get 40 miles or close if I do 10 mph.
Love it when people say "Chinese garbage" do you know of any scooters made in USA or in whatever country you are in? Pretty sure everything's made in China and some brands even made in the same factory...if you didn't know a lot of the brand/non branded stuff you see in stores..from tools to food are made in the same factories 😂 Rant aside, I've had good experiences with Navee and Ausom, recently I bought a non-known scooter from Aliexpress for $490, I've gps tested it at 35mph. So far so good with all my scooters.
I run an electric repair shop and do sales as well. I actually had a navee rep from china visit to try and stock their stuff. I was displeased with their demo model as the QC was sub par. Stripped and loose bolts. ON THE DEMO MODEL
I have navee and it’s horrible. It doesn’t go even half of the advertised distance (and I am not driving it uphill), charges unreliably, it’s also on the heavier side of what scooters weigh. The app also randomly locks you out..
Both of these are absolute garbage. Get him a niu, ninebot, or navee. The lowest models are around the same price roughly.
Extremely cheap and "higher quality" do not got together here...but for 2.5 miles if you spend $500 you will be all set. Avoid the parts bin temu/amazon crap. It will not last. NIU or ninebot or navee. Either one will be fine for a rather short ride. My job is 6 miles away. At one point I had a go trax and I could get there in like 18 min....i do not recommend go trax though. You best bet is one the "N" brands.
If it doesn't explode the 1st time you plug it in to charge, for $150 this will be a steal. If you buy this with $150 expectations, I'm sure it will be a super scooter. A replacement TFT screen for my scooter alone costs as much as 2 of these. And while I'm sure it's sloooow, even a slow scooter will still be 5x plus faster than a person can walk. My last scooter broke and I was stuck walking until I got a new one. It's 1.5 miles to the nearest grocery store. I'd have loved a scooter like this over those 3 mile walks to get food lol.
Navee is good and quite bang for the buck. Having the s60 myself. Good for city driving and has good suspension.
I’ve had both, Segway is better quality hands down. Navee is still good though.
I run an E-scooter comparison site in Germany and have analyzed both brands extensively: \*\*Ride Quality:\*\* \- Segway Ninebot (Max G2/G3, ZT3 Pro) has superior suspension and build quality \- Navee is surprisingly solid for the price but feels less refined in turns \- Braking: Segway wins with dual drum/disc combos \*\*Reliability:\*\* \- Segway has years of proven track record and excellent spare parts availability \- Navee is too new to judge long-term, but I've seen some app connectivity issues reported \*\*Germany-specific (since you mentioned Mediamarkt):\*\* \- Both have ABE certification for German streets (20 km/h limit applies) \- Segway warranty/support is established; Navee support can be hit-or-miss \*\*My verdict:\*\* For reliability and resale value, Segway is the safer choice. Navee offers good value if you're on a budget and willing to take a small risk on a newer brand. If you want detailed specs/scores, check my profile - I've tested 29 models with German street approval.
bought it and got $35 khloes bucks back so ended up being about $120 all in, good deal
My mate had a navee,no clue if its the same model but it was a horrible scoot, it was ultra light which u wud think it's a good thing but it wasn't. It 'bucked' at every opportunity & then There was the brake that wasn't a lever (like normal) but a button! just like the accelerator but they were in a god awful position so it was awkward to use. I ended up just jumping off it after about 20yards or so cos it was so bad. Now I'm not saying all cheap scoots are bad, mine cost less than £200, basic as u can get & I've had it for 1.5yrs, using it every day, in all weathers & it's still going strong (hopefully I haven't just jinxed it lol)
