A satellite navigation system is now far more than a piece of gadgetry that will get you from A to B. The best sat navs on the market now have a number of additional features that make some possess similarities with the best smartphones on the market, such as web hook-up, inbuilt cameras and HD screens. This surge in new applications is a response to the refining of GPS on high-quality phones. So what next for the sat nav? Well, here is an insight into two of the leading sat navs currently on the market.

Garmin Nuvi 3790T

The 3790T is as stylishly designed as many smarthphones. At just 9mm thick and finished with glass and alloy, this alluring gadget makes most other sat navs resemble Fisher Price toys. With a retail price of £330.00 the 3790T isn’t cheap, so what features justify such a high-price tag? The 3970T is simply unbeatable in a number of areas, best of all its quick. It locks on to satellites nearly instantly; the menu is practical and accessible and it has an incredible amount of storage space available for postcodes or POIs. The Garmin Nuvi 3790T is a market leader only matched by the TomTom Go Live 1000.

TomTom Go Live 1000

Arguably the best sat nav currently on the market. At £280.00, the TomTom Go Live 1000 isn’t cheap. But don’t be fooled by the high price tag. Yes the Go Live 1000 does have plenty of features, but unlike other pricey sat navs it concentrates primarily on the navigation essentials.There are little accompaniments that tarnish its capabilities to guide. The TomTom has ported its UI to the same Webkit back-end that results in the iPad’s speedy browser. The model also possesses an impeccable HD Traffic service which works out where jams are by tracking the signals of mobile phones. If all this isn’t enough to convince you to purchase a TomTom, then maybe the voice of Brian Blessed will incite you. He is the latest celebrity to add his tone to the TomTom catalogue.
