Thread: which one are you using frequently : Smartphone vs. Dedicated Car GPS (PND) ?

In the past I used Sygic a lot on my Android smartphone.
This moment i'm experimenting with TomTom Go and HERE.

My Toyota car has a fixed navigation system. I don't use it often. I like to plan my journeys outside of my car. A smartphone is the best option

For me it depends on how much time I have. If I am already driving and I don't remember the route, I ask my dearest google asistant... If I prepare my trip in advance, I like to use my (dad's) old Nüvi (I have no fixed sat-nav in my car). And sometimes, just for the fun, I use my Montana 600...

I've been using an Android car head unit MTCB which is now almost 4 years old and runs Android KitKat. I flashed a kitkat Malaysk ROMs and works flawlessly with almost all gps app's although the more I use is iGO-NextGen

Usually I use Pocket PC (Igo 8.3) ... sometimes Smartphone

Using my Huawei P10 as navigation, no need for dedicated device in these days.

I use an older Sony SP smartphone without sim card as a dedicated GPS device (driving, hiking, cycling). I use my LG G3 smartphone in everyday life

Just bought a Garmin driveassist 51 lmt-s. The dash cam came with a 4gb sd card, not sure how the camera is supposed to work🤔

Usually used tomtom go, now I use carminat tomtom live by renault

For short routes, when I am just looking an address I use on-boad navi (IGO on WinCE), for long trips I use IGO on Android smartphone, both offline. If I need traffic info, I use Google Maps on android smartphone.

I got a hand me down Garmin standalone, I hardly use that as the phone app is much easier to update and maintain.

Another point is how much nicer a phone screen is versus the tiny LCD screen on standalones.
