Sat-navs tested: £150-£250 - 9th: Pogo Drive

Pogo Drive

On sale mid-December (RRP £249.99)
For Detailed safety camera information
Against Poor spoken instructions and sub-standard maps
Verdict Expensive, and not a great navigator

For £250, we'd expect to see a few more features than come with the Pogo.

You only get a 3.5-inch screen, and miss out on Bluetooth connectivity and traffic monitoring. European maps do come as standard, however.

The Pogo's case felt cheap, and there were lots of angles and sharp edges.

When suckered to the screen, the cradle adjustment didn't lock well, and that meant the Pogo shuddered on bumpy roads.

Sadly, its navigation wasn't nearly as good as its safety camera detection, which the Pogo does better than most units here.

The maps weren't well designed and we also found entering a destination fiddly, due to the small on-screen buttons.

If your fingers are tiny enough to use them, though, the unit is quick to respond to commands.

The spoken instructions were another let-down. They often came too late, leaving us little time to prepare for an imminent turning. The voice was muffled, too.
