TomTom GO 920T review
Reviews You can also utilise the free Map Corrections utility for making amendments to the internal maps or for downloading fixes made by others. Though the screen was superb, its map detail was still basic in nature, with street names not appearing as...

Nokia 6220 Classic review
Reviews If you look closely on the left side of the phone, you'll also notice another dedicated button that gives you access to Nokia Maps and activates the assisted GPS. We tested it out with Google Maps and it worked well, which is very handy when you're...

Medion GoPal P4425 review
Reviews Despite the lower screen resolution, we found maps to be clear. The software can be sluggish to start with, due to the maps being held on the memory card. Fortunately, after a warm-up period, the software becomes nippy, as all the maps and menus...

Nokia 6650 review
Reviews Like most Nokia handsets, the 6650 doesn't store maps locally. Instead its Nokia Maps software uses the data connection to download maps on the fly as you need them. The Nokia Maps software is pretty easy to get to grips with and very handy when...

Binatone Carrera C350BT review
Reviews Routes could be a touch more efficient, but due to the maps being held on its internal memory, both initial route and route recalculations are nippy. The street names used on the maps are clear and the auto zoom function kept us on track without...

Navigon 7210 review
Reviews In addition to using the conventional text-based smart-speller inputs for destinations, you can also import Outlook contacts or add points to the maps as favourites. The screen coped well in bright outdoor conditions and maps looked great, with...

TomTom One Europe review
Reviews FeaturesAs we just mentioned, maps of Western Europe are preloaded on the SD card, so to get started, simply insert it into the TomTom One's expansion slot -- there's no need to transfer maps from your computer.

Nokia 6600 Slide review
Reviews A useful and unexpected feature is Nokia Maps, which comes pre-installed and allows you search for directions. The 6600 doesn't come with GPS so you can't pinpoint your location without using an external Bluetooth GPS receiver, but we still found...

Nokia N85 review
Reviews GPS means you can find your location and plan trips, using Nokia Maps, which comes pre-installed, or you can download Google Maps. Is this a case of Nokia running out of ideas, or is it merely honing a deservedly popular phone?

HTC Touch HD review
Reviews Many of the features on this phone really benefit from its large screen size, including Google Maps and the Opera Mobile Web browser We tested out the Touch HD's GPS with Google Maps and it looks great on the large screen.

Nokia 6110 Navigator review
Reviews Strangely, Nokia has chosen not to use the N95's Maps application in its second sat-nav phone, using the Route 66-based Navigator instead. The 6110 ships with a Route 66 CD that has sync software and extra maps (you get the UK and Ireland free...

Route 66 Chicago 8000 review
Reviews As a result, you are left to pan around the maps manually, in order to see in advance of where you're going. Voice instructions were audibly clear and precise, but you only get the basic commands such as 'turn left in 400 yards', there is no text...

Nokia N95 review
Reviews Like Google Earth, Maps opens on an image of our planet from space, swooping smoothly in once the GPS aerial locks on. FeaturesNokia's GPS application -- which goes by the rather dull name of 'Maps' -- is very different from other portable...

RIM BlackBerry 8800 review
Reviews We didn't particularly like the pre-installed maps -- they seemed slow to load and didn't display enough information. Our review model came with BlackBerry Maps, which you can either use as you would a normal map or it can display directions using...

RIM BlackBerry Curve 8300 review
Reviews Don't get too excited by the Maps application in the menu, either, as the Curve we're getting in the UK lacks the GPS sat-nav functionality that's popping up in other smart phones. Even without a GPS connection, the Maps application is useful.
