The whole premise behind recreational GPS units is that you can take them anywhere and find anything. The Magellan CrossoverGPS lives up to this standard because it is built for any kind of travel in any terrain. The Magellan CrossoverGPS is waterproof and has a special cover to protect the unit from bumps and dings.
One of the best parts about the Magellan CrossoverGPS is the screen size. Its 3.5 inch screen is almost an inch larger than most other recreational GPS units. This makes the maps bigger and easier to see on the screen. On the flip side, the extra screen size contributes to the total weight of the Magellan CrossoverGPS, making it one of the heavier units in this category too. But it is still small and light enough to be carried around. The fact that it’s watertight also makes it perfect for boating, fishing and other activities where you wouldn’t normally bring electronic devices.
The experts all liked how the unit could be used equally well for driving, boating and hiking. They also liked the large screen. Some of them expressed concerns about the battery life being shorter than most other GPS units. Consumers liked the text-to-speech capabilities as well as the large map displays.
The Magellan CrossoverGPS is perfect for almost any user because it is useful for both driving and recreational navigation. It’s the perfect way to get two GPS units in one.
