and besides it has 99% of the same use, i dont miss my garmin.
one problem with a smartphone, you need to get a windshield mount. a good one which i regularly use can be found here.

I get the impression you’ve never used a good dedicated GPS. Garmin, though flawed in several areas, is still far superior to any smartphone app.
