Review of Satmap Active 10 GPS

Review by Eric Garfield 19th March 2009, 20:59Awesome piece of kit

The good:

Fantastically clear mapping, accurate positioning, very easy to use. Great reassurance when out on the hills and could literally be a life-saver. Very robust - I heard reports of regular crashes from early adopters, but these seem to have been ironed out now.

The bad:

It takes a couple of minutes to get a satellite fix, but I just switch it on when I arrive and it's ready to go by the time I've got my gear sorted out.
