Best GPS Systems | Finding The Best Rated GPS [Nov. 2nd, 2010|07:52 am]
[Tags|, , , , ]

If you are in the market for a GPS then you need to know what the best GPS systems currently are so you get the most for your money and features to suit your needs.

In the gadget world you tend to find popularity or best selling items tend to be a good bet. Amazon in particular allow you to sort the results by bestselling thus helping you to find the bes GPS systems much easier.

If you look at the list you will find that Garmin feature quite heavily on there. I like the Garmin models as they tend to offer widescreen, bluetooth connectivity, hotfix to lock onto satellites quickly and on some models additional features such as real time traffic and detailed local area information.

I would consider Garmin one of the top manufacturers of the best GPS systems.

GPS is not just for cars though don't forget. Who here likes a spot of golf or fishing? No? Maybe hunting or hiking or walking?

The best GPS systems for all of these activities and more are handheld and offer a range of features including the following 4 main ones:

Mapping - As it says on the tin. Street, terrain, mountain, lakes you name it you will more than likely find it.

Surveying - To calculate distance to and from locations

Tracking - To track an items location or the car for example or even a child!

Navigation - To direct you from A to B

These four should come as standard with all the best GPS systems but you should think about the main purpose for your GPS. If it is golf then look for golf features, if it is fishing then look for fishing features. Common sense really and there are tons of makes and models to choose from.
