Anyone any experience of this android phone /gps ?
Need both a new phone and a new gps and already use memory map on old system and laptop. I own all the Uk OS maps at 25000 scale on this format and would like to continue using .
I would also prefer taking one device on rides rather than phone AND GPS.
So any recommendations or advice ?

Advice? Take two devices, keeping the phone warm, dry and protected for when you need it.

i use MMtracker [ which uses the same maps

Works very well but as noted a dedicated GPS device is better

My phone is waterproof but i dont want to risk it on the bars oof rad.

Battery life is also pretty poor

That said its great for when the GPS screen is a wee bit small and it zooms faster and easier than my GPS.
the joy of having two is redundancy and its not like either is a massive weight penalty.

I would never use a phone as my sole GPS
