Accurate directions. Slick software design. Google-powered services are a boon. Solid traffic reporting. Useful elevation readings
Bundled data subscription expires after two years. Displays ads. Still requires extra-cost map updates like any other GPS. Connected services not integrated with main POI database. On-board EDGE radio caused GSM buzz in our car stereo
Garmin's impressive nüvi 1690 integrates connected services and offers plenty of routing options, but the high price and mandatory ads—even when you're not using said services—are turn-offs.

Responsive touch screen. Detailed voice prompts. Fast route recalculations. Handy "Find Your Car" feature helps you locate your vehicle in a crowded parking lot
Inconsistent voice recognition. Takes a long time to lock location. A little buggy
A slim and flexible navigation device, the Magellan Maestro 4700 features a big 4.7-inch screen and serves up clear and accurate turn-by-turn directions; forget about talking to it, though.

Out of the box, the Magellan Maestro 4370 is almost identical to its predecessor, the Maestro 4350. But when you switch the unit on, you see the difference, the 4370 sports a ultra-high-resolution touch screen. Originally, the Maestro 4370 hit the ...
Beautiful, ultra-high resolution screen. Very sharp map and 3D landmark graphics. Accurate navigation. Powerful routing options. Useful AAA guide. Can calculate up to three route profiles simultaneously
Touch screen can be stubborn at times. Interface sometimes showed slight lag in our tests. Lacks current speed display in map view
The Magellan Maestro 4370's low list price and stellar screen resolution cements its status as a solid navigator, despite some touch-screen issues.

If you're a golfer, the name Callaway surely rings plenty of bells. What you may not know, however, is that Callaway sells more than just clubs. It also offers the Callaway uPro golfing GPS ($399.99 list), which can help you get the lay of the land ...
Pocketable. Rechargeable battery. Video flyover preview of holes in Pro mode. Extensive library of national and international golf courses
Smallish screen. No included case or clip
The hi-res video flyover hole preview, available in the Pro mode, is the "killer" feature that gives Callaway's uPro golf GPS an edge over the competing Garmin Approach G5.

Garmin has a well-regarded name in automotive, aviation, marine, and sports devices, but its first golf-centric GPS device, the Approach G5 ($499.99 list), may have its work cut out for it. It's in direct competition with well-established golf ...
Easy to use. Ruggedized, waterproof case. Touch screen. Preloaded with about 8,800 courses. Screen viewable in bright sunlight. Electronic score card
Expensive. No battery meter. No rechargeable batteries
The Approach G5 is a rugged, reliable, and easy-to-use golf GPS from a trusted manufacturer. And it should get even better as Garmin adds course updates for download.

Live traffic updates used to be exclusive to premium GPS devices; today, it's one of many features starting to migrate to lower-priced models. Last year, Garmin introduced devices like the Editors' Choicewinning nüvi 265T with a built-in traffic ...
Good value. Upgradeable maps and POI database. Easy to use. Free lifetime traffic
Small initial POI database. No turn-by-turn list view. Can't save current location. Maps for U.S. only. Traffic receiver not built-in
The Nextar 43LT is a worthy competitor to the Editors' Choice Garmin nuvi 265T, but its lack of a Bluetooth interface and a couple other features hold it back.

If you want a big-screen GPS device but you're on a small-screen budget, you may be in luck: Mio Technology's Mio Moov S501 has a 4.7-inch screen and a price ($199.99 list) that's more in line with 3.5-inch models (like our Editors' Choice TomTom One ...
Twelve million-entry POI database. 4.7-inch screen. Maps for U.S., Puerto Rico, and Canada. Multisegment routing. Very affordable
Poor POI handling. Awkward user interface
The $200 Mio Moov S501 offers a lot of features, including a roomy 4.7-inch screen, for less than $200. But comparable devices deliver even more, and a better navigation experience, for only a slight price bump.

The sleek new Mio Moov S401 breaks new ground in personal navigation. It all starts with its totally new Mio Spirit software interface featuring cleaner, uncluttered map views and search enhancements with fewer taps and clicks to more quickly find ...

Most GPS devices today support multiple vehicle profiles, including one for pedestrian modewhich is often just an automobile mode that avoids highways and ignores one-way streets. But Garmin's new nüvi 1260T ($299.99 list) changes all that. When ...
Small form factor. Enhanced pedestrian mode. Subscription-free lifetime traffic
Expensive. Pedestrian mode doesn't use moving maps if GPS signal is available. Public transportation routes with optional cityXplorer could be improved
The pedestrian-friendly Garmin n?vi 1260T is thinner, sleeker, and more expensive than the 265T. Unless you plan to use the enhanced pedestrian mode and purchase optional maps, you're better off with the otherwise similar 265T.

The GPS aisle in any electronics store is filed with devices for cars, but if you're a truck driver, you're more or less out of luck. Since truck drivers face restrictions like vehicle height, length, weight, and type of cargo, they require vastly ...
Lifetime traffic updates included. Truck-specific routing for road restrictions. Extensive truck-centric POI database. Maps for U.S., Canada, and Puerto Rico. Multisegment routing. Lane assist. Truck and Car modes
Expensive. No POI category for rest areas. Truck-specific data only for continental U.S
Garmin's truck-targeted GPS is a solid first effort; but it could use a few minor tweaks.
