  That said, if there's a poor GPS signal, it struggles to locate your parking location, so in rural areas or multi-storey car parks with intermittent signal, it can be hit and miss.

  Review Lexmoto Tempest 125 (productReview)
  width=500&height=333.33333333333337" alt="" data-udi="umb://media/c51bc3da95c94dffbd8b543096cc932d" /> The five-speed gearbox is decent, although can sometimes slip into false neutrals. Brakes are firm but, at this price, it's no surprise we don't get adjustable front forks.

And the included carry case is especially nice – high quality, sturdy and neatly designed, inside and out.

Bafflingly, however, the first generation PSVR’s processing unit doesn’t pass through 4K HDR signals, meaning you have to unplug the PSVR if you want to see 4K/HDR on your TV when you're not using the headset.
