The Best Auto Navigation Systems Manufacturers

By Owen Jones


Cream floats to the top, as the saying goes and that applies to many other things too. The most popular games have been around for thousands of years: chess, draughts, cards and ludo. The favourite hobbies have been the same for ages as well: flirting with the opposite sex, riding horses, breeding dogs, hiking, sailing, travelling and keeping up with the latest technology. However, until recently, keeping up with the latest technology was fairly easy.

New models came out every few years in the past, but nowadays they come out every couple of months and most items you buy have been surpassed by the time they get into the shops. Computers, particularly laptops, and mobile phones are prime examples.

And so is auto navigation or sat nav as it is often known as. Auto navigation systems are based on GPS or GPRS and this technology is at the cutting edge of electronics because the world's military relies on it and they have a great deal of spending power.

However, cream floats to the top and so it is with auto navigation systems too. The best auto navigation system manufacturers have been constantly good and at the cutting edge of the fairly old idea of GPS. In this article, we will run through a few of the leading makers of auto navigation systems

Tom Tom is world-famous for its quality. It is also well-known for repeatedly manufacturing some of the smallest auto navigation systems. Small does not of necessity mean better, but the quality of Tom Tom auto navigation systems is beyond question.

However, if you are not having your auto navigation system fitted by your car's manufacturer, space may be at a premium and so a Tom Tom sat nav system may be ideal for you. If you have a bluetooth-enabled cell phone, you can link them together without wires, wirelessly, and make use of their up-to-the-minute weather and traffic data while you are en route.

Garmin auto navigation systems are time after time one of the most feature-packed and up-to-date auto navigation systems on the market. Despite it being just about the most feature-rich sat nav system on the market, it is not always the most costly. However, learning to use all of the Garmin's features can take a while, but it is normally the auto navigation system that the tech geek would like to get his hands on. It is bluetooth enabled as well.

Magellan is well known for its portable auto navigation systems. They make different sorts of devices, but they are most well known for their portable auto navigation systems. So, you can use your Magellan sat nav system in your car, then take it on your boat or on hiking or bicycle excursions.

There are auto navigation systems to match every pocket and every situation, so if you travel a lot, these manufacturers' names should be on your short list. Auto navigation systems are ideal for individuals who travel, but they are also fantastic for finding different routes through town to avoid hot spots. You do not have to use them every day, but they are nice to have, if you do need them
