Consumer Reports Calls New Apple (AAPL) Map App 'Disappointing'

Apple (Nasdaq: AAPL) is still hanging in negative territory amid a new review from Consumer Reports today.

Overall, CR called the iPhone 5 "a worthy upgrade for owners of older iPhones who want a bigger screen and faster data access," which is similar to other reviews. However, to maybe no ones surprise, CR was hung up on Apple's map app.

CR's Cars section reviewers, which put the beans to portable navigation apps, like the simplicity of the interface that Apple's map app offered, but suffers from gaps in the maps data itself.

Shares of Apple are 1.4 percent lower Monday afternoon.
