Buy GPS-device navigation system or buy the application for iphone? It is a dilemma many people face today, thinking about the navigation systems for their cars. There are several key factors that need to think about when trying to make this choice:

Screen Size – iPhone has a 3.5 “widescreen display against GPS-systems, which are about 4.3″. GPS manufacturers also offer large screen sizes up to 7 “. Bigger is always better, goes to the point of GPS-devices here.

Price – TomTom on the iPhone is $ 100 + plus additional costs to get the mount (which will include the updated GPS-chip and speaker), the total cost of adding a true navigation to your iPhone will cost about $ 160. There are a ton of good quality GPS-navigation systems, which cost less, or about $ 160. Thus, in terms of price, GPS devices dislodge iphone as well.
Portability – people always carry their phones, so that even when you travel you will always have a phone, so your navigation. Sometimes people forget to carry their GPS-system during the trip, which is a pain and had to rely on other methods to get around when they arrived at their destination. Due to the easy-to-use and portability, and no need to hold an additional device to the phone, we will give iPhone this time.

Multitasking – When using the iPhone for navigation, you lose the ability to use it for other things like computer games or using other applications. IPhone is a versatile tool and should not be tied only to one function. We provide GPS navigation devices, point to it, because they are only one and only one, navigation.

Based on these factors, obviously, GPS-navigation systems have the advantage over Iphones, because they are designed to do one thing, what they are doing very well. If I were you, I would buy a GPS-system and application navigation.

Simplicity is the latest TomTom TomTom at the end of the entry-level market, and I considered the block here GPSLodge last month. PCMag has published its review on the TomTom and simplicity they offer some insight into what they think about the ease, indicating text to speech capacity, and the fact that it comes with benefits for TomTom – IQ Routes, MapShare and solid mapping database under hood. They have some problems with routing while reducing the Mass Pike, and some of the keys, TomTom took to get to the simple design and low price. Ultimately, they recommend to look for older units are still on the market with low prices, as a suitable alternative Simplicity.

I think it’s fair recommendation as long as you get text to speech, but I think that TomTom will be easy to think well, south of the $ 100 units that you see on a regular basis in the eye grounds poppingly low prices. Not now, but it will be.
