The Navman S100 is a bold and innovative sat-nav in a number of areas. But it also still misses out on neat features now found on more than one competitor's products, in particular the ‘active dock', which integrates power and traffic connections into the screen mount itself. The Spirit interface looks very nice and follows the latest Apple-inspired trends. However, we found it quite finicky, and in some areas more difficult to use than Navman's previous, less trendy front end. When you're heading off in your car, the last thing you really need is to deal with something fiddly, and unfortunately this first outing for Spirit is just that. So we recommend looking elsewhere until Navman has made Spirit more reliable, and released the more feature-rich devices already available in other regions.
