Magellan RoadMate 700

Editors' rating

Very good

7.3

out of 10

The good: Accurate directions; strong satellite fix; hard drive has large database; easy to use.
The bad: Expensive.
The bottom line: We thought Garmin's StreetPilot III was the best vehicle-navigation system, but Magellan's RoadMate 700 has raised the bar.

Intro of Magellan RoadMate 700

High-quality vehicle-navigation systems have always been a bit expensive, and the new Magellan RoadMate 700, with a list price of $1,299, is no exception. That said, we think the RoadMate 700 is worth every penny, thanks to its accuracy, its user-friendly touch-screen interface, its voice-enabled and text-based driving directions, and its seamless mapping database.
