Explain star rating

RRP

$550.00

Review Date

What's Hot

Rugged design, accurate location and speed capability, expandable memory, Vantage Point software

What's Not

Steep learning curve, some reception difficulties, odd USB connection design

The Final Word

The Triton 400 provides the perfect companion for travelling and hiking. It doesn’t offer the luxuries of Magellan’s more expensive models, but it provides the necessities for successful travel at a fairly reasonable cost.
