Garmin Nuvi 250 - Expert Reviews

Review summary: An inexpensive, neatly designed sat-nav that happens to offer additional travel info if you want it

Pros: Solid build. Pocketable size. Easy to use.

Cons: Slightly confusing maps.

Verdict: The Nuvi 250, though, is a lot smaller and, with its rounded corners, integrated GPS aerial and glitz-free design, could easily pass as a generic device. Like, indeed, an electronic phrasebook
