Quotes & Reviews
Aug 2010 Country Walking
Overall GPS Winner - Best in Test "The Active 10 PLUS seems to get better and better..." "The huge screen is a delight to use, enabling you to see a fair bit of the surrounding terrain at a reasonable zoom level without having to scroll." "Satmap offers use of its own web-based planning tool, which is wonderful and negates the need to buy digital-mapping" "It is big, and it's heavy but if you want a GPS that displays Ordnance Survey mapping, it's definitely the best.
Aug 2010 Radio 4 Today Programme
Travel Journalist and Writer for The Times newspaper, Christopher Somerville, was interviewed on Radio 4's Today Programme and said: "I was there last month (Scottish Mountains) and had a wonderful little device called a Satmap." "I was able to take a much more wild walk, a more adventurous walk than I would have otherwise been able to do." View a selection of Christopher Somerville walks
Jun 2010 Walking Around Ireland
"The best thing about the Active 10 is that it's purely functional. I’ve torn my hair out when using other GPS units that treble-up as cameras and MP3 players. The Active 10 does what it says on the tin without the whistle and bells. Yes it’s expensive but when you consider the cost of the 1 SD card as against buying 4 as in the case of other units then there’s a saving to be had for those who want a GPS with OS mapping."
