Product Description

 
MAGELLAN Explorist 300 GPS Handheld System - The eXplorist 300 adds a trio of advanced tools to the built-in nationwide background map for easier navigation: a barometer, an altimeter and an electronic compass, which eliminates the need to be in motion to get a direction to a destination. Like the eXplorist 200, the eXplorist 300 contains a background map with roads, parks, waterways, airports and more, plus three navigation screens and the ability to save five track-log files with up to 2000 points each. The ideal choice for outdoor adventures, the blue-cased eXplorist 300 is a robust GPS Receiver delivering all of these major features, at a most-affordable price.

Good if you want the basics

Date of Review:  Jun 12, 2006
The Bottom Line: Not a bad unit for the intro user. A bit pricey for the features though. I would consider Garmin for my next purchase.
Review: The unit is very easy to operate. Magellan has definitely improved the details in the manual since their earlier models. This unit is great for the novice user. If you're a hiker, fisherman, or biker this has most of what you need. The internal...

good outdoors gps

Date of Review:  Dec 7, 2004
The Bottom Line: GPS's are unique to each user. This one could be recommended for certain applications(outdoor excursions) and not for others(road trecking).
Review: I received this gps as a gift and ended up taking it back to get a unit with external connections. This gps is a great little piece of equipment if you are using it fot the right applications. The map data will give you a proximity to locations and...

Reliable Entry Unit (with minor interface limitations)

Date of Review:  Nov 26, 2005
The Bottom Line: Overall reliability makes this unit a good choice for entry-level users who aren't looking for roadmap/trail functionality.
Review: This is my third Handheld GPS unit. My first comparison is a General Electric junker that couldn't lock onto a satellite if it was sitting on top of it. The second is the Magellan Sportrak. Of the three, the Magellan Explorist 300 is the best...
