TomTom One 140

Same, same but slightly better than before. Quicker responses and lane guidance justify slight premium over fourth-gen One.

Navman MY500XT

Top dog in the Navman MY range, the MY500XT bows in in August. Over and above the MY55T, the XT gains a flush, shiny, capactive touchscreen, media playback, and full Wcities and Lonely Planet info on points of interest. Oh, and real metal on its rear.

Reviews

  • Navman MY55T

    Just like the 4.7-inch MY50T, but with added goodness in the form of Bluetooth hands-free, more memory, an FM transmitter, 3D landmarks and a higher capacity battery.

  • Navmany MY50T

    Step up to the MY50T and you'll get a larger than normal 4.7-inch touchscreen, traffic messaging with a lifetime Suna subscription, and Google or Truelocal searches via a Bluetooth internet connection.

  • Navman MY30

    Baby of the new Navman MY range, the MY30 features a 3.5-inch touchscreen, spoken street names, extended lane info, junction view and keyword driven searches.

  • TomTom XL 340

    Bedecked in black and furnished with IQ Routes, a new faster, snazzier interface and lane guidance, the XL 340 is identical to the One 140 except, you guessed it, it has a wider 4.3-inch screen.

  • Nokia E52

    As a part of the E-Series family, the E52 is a bit of a black sheep. It's a messaging phone, but it doesn't have a QWERTY or dual-QWERTY keyboard. Perhaps its extraordinary battery life will come to its rescue.

  • LG Arena

    LG's touchscreen features class-leading multimedia support, but we're not convinced it makes an excellent phone. Its flashy new interface looks great but tends to make things slower and more difficult.

  • Vodafone Compass

    Compass makes an excellent navigation tool for casual users looking for directions a few times a month or year. More frequent users should look to something more robust.

  • Nokia 6700

    Like the work of a mad scientist, Nokia's 6700 is the best of many of the company's most popular mid-range handsets, with HSDPA, GPS and a 5-megapixel camera.
