Expert review by : Rob Mead (techradar.com)
Whats this - a satnav with digital camera? Genius idea, or convergence gone mad?
Value for money ; Widescreen display ; Built-in camera ; Easy-to-use interface
Bulky ; Fiddly widescreen mount ; Built-in camera ; Disappointing POI ; Lacks flair
The Navman is a solid, competent performer, but there's little here to separate it out from the ground. Even the novelty of a built-in digital camera fails to convince

The Navman S90 takes on TomTom and Garmin in the high-end satnav market, but can Navman deliever the goods? We get on the road to find out. The S90i is the flagship of the S-series and following a "dramatic redesign" of the company's satellite...
Interface, speed camera information, Navpix
Retro design, no voice input, no FM transmitter
The unique selling point of the S90i is the camera function and the new addition of all those Flickr photos, however take that out of the equation and you've got a unit that is a solid performer but by no means breaks any boundaries. Following on from...

Navman has officially launched its new S-series, following a "dramatic redesign" of the company's satellite navigation systems. But is it for the better? We were able to have a brief play with the new models at the launch event in London. Losing all...

The S90i is Navmans top-of-the-line model in its S-series of GPS devices. It features a large 4.3in widescreen display, text-to-speech, Bluetooth handsfree calling and, of course, a leather pouch to carry it in. But the feature that really sets the...
This attractive and intuitive navigator is a welcome addition to Navman's S-series. It remains to be seen whether navigation by image will become a hit, but top marks to Navman for not just listening to feedback but acting on it too. Given its high-end...
Expert review by (stuff.tv)
Navman has had its S-series in the development studio for some time: can it make TomTom shift uneasily in its cradle?
Smart, clever and capable. A couple of imperfections keep it off the top spot, and we might be tempted by the camera-less S70, but it's a fine choice

You can view the mapping in either 2D or 3D and there are plenty of points of interest programmed in, should you want to take the scenic route or are looking for something in particular. The S90i comes with 2GB of expandable flash memory to which you...

Whoever said satnavs weren't sexy was right. But the Navman S90i tries its best to change that. A good effort!
Plenty of features. It's cheap!
No FM transmitter or Pedestrian Mode.

Navman S90i - Navigation Redifined. With its clean lines and sleek finish, the S90i makes its mark as one of the best-designed and most innovative portable navigation devices in the world. Intelligent features such as built-in Real-time Traffic and...
Whether you're bothered about Navpix or not, with sublime looks to match solid performance, this is one of the most user-friendly satnavs we've seen. And dead reasonable price-wise. Navman S90i is tagged with GPS device, Navman and FM transmitter....
Expert review by : Benny Har-Even (igizmo.co.uk)
Navman gets some attention for its quirky NavPix camera feature but that aside this is a decently performing and well-featured sat nav at a very attractive price.
Curved edges / lightweight / POI shortcut buttons / NavPix camera / price
Poor on screen keyboard / depressing voice giving directions
The idea is that you take a picture of a location, which is then ‘geo-tagged.’ You can then navigate straight to this place just by selecting the picture and there are hordes of suitably tagged locations available for download from Navman’s website and...
