Sony NAVU 83T
Review of Sony NV-U83T by cperk

Advantages: Large bright screen, loud voice, superior suction mount, good navigation
Disadvantages: Slow calculating routes

...While no GPS is perfect, Sony has done a pretty good job with this one. The 4.8" screen is crisp and bright, touch screen responds well, bluetooth works the best of any other unit I tried. Routing is decent, POI icons are branded, not generic which is really nice. You can also select the size of fonts and icons. The mount is absolutely the best. Power and TMC connect to it so the unit can be removed quickly. The suction cup actually sticks to the ...
...to have some issues that Sony claims to have fixed with a firmware update. One of them is the route calculation and recalculation times. IMO this is the major flaw with the unit. While not unbearable, both the calculating route and recalculation are slower than other units. I've owned and tried about 20 different units in the past year, and I must say this is by far my favorite. ... Read review

Advantages: Great quality, clear screen, easy to use, all out exceptional
Disadvantages: NONE! :D

...want, I really love this Magellan Maestro 4200 GPS receiver. This has been one of my best purchases in the past year, the screen is nice and clear, the street names are always correct, it will redirect you if you happen to take the wrong turn some where. It also announces out loud where you should go, so you can safely drive with your hands on the wheel and your eyes on the road. The design in itself is even really nice, it's sleek and compact and ... Read review

Good Midrange GPS
Review of Magellan Maestro 4250 by bboothe83

Advantages: Widescreen, Touchscreen
Disadvantages: Price

This product gets the job done, but there are a few shortcomings. First; you are unable to transfer address information from your computer to the GPS. Second; Voice command is limited to a few commands, which are convenient; Third; I found it difficult to navigate the website for map updates. Customer service numbers are not available on the web sight so its frustrating to figure things out. Fourth: Make sure you have your car charger with you. Battery ... Read review

Disadvantages: ---

...exposed. The name of Garmin has convinced me, and I believe that in recent times has exceeded its famous + competitor. After a wander among the showcase where they were exposed boaters, and after a careful reading of characteristics, I decided: Garmin Nuvi 200 ... ****** Features: I chose because it was one of the few in which they are loaded not only maps of Italy but across Europe. >>> Display touchscreen size of 2.8x2.1 inches, very clear ...

Cheapest way not to get lost.
Review of Garmin eTrex Legend by kaiser83

Advantages: waterproof
Disadvantages: none

...This is the base model Garmin that has mapping capabilities so at around 120 dollars it is the cheapest way to get started in whatever your new endeavor is. The casing is blue and black so while walking through the woods it does not make you stand out to the people on the trails. The black grips on the side are perfect, when out on the water fishing, to grip onto so you do not drop this unit. In the event you do slip and drop the unit it comes with ...
...it is waterproof so there are no worries about ruining it in the water..in fact I frequently rinse it off in the nearby rivers. The only thing I would recommend is that you do not purchase the carrying case as it covers the internal antenna blocking signal to the unit. I hope this helps. ... Read review
