Magellan Meridian Platinum review

 

Magellan Meridian Platinum

Rugged design; loads of features; powerful receiver; waterproof.

Street-level maps cost extra.

Magellan's Meridian Platinum is a great choice if you're looking for a standalone GPS device that doesn't skimp on features.

Consumer review (productreview.com.au)

Excellent

 

Great machine overall. Clear screen. Good windscreen mount. Bad ongoing support from manufacturer. To get the best from unit you must travel with user manual.

Accurate with plenty of detailed maps avail.

Difficult to master all the features. Manufacturers hangups with changing to different base maps.
