I've read all the reviews on the internet but am no wiser really.
I have no special requirements - the most important thing to me is walking directions & sat nav so I never get lost again.
My budget is around £200.
I would very much appreciate any help & comments.
Like others here, I have a Samsung which does all I ask reliably.
Whatever you choose, may I suggest to fulfil your walking and sat nav requirements you install Google Maps and OS Maps.
Both are free!
We often use Google Maps for sat nav, and it includes the facility for providing a route for driving to a known destination. If your phone has GPS, which most have, you can find your present location on the map.
OS Maps provides excellent detail for walking. If you download the area you are interested in using WiFi or cellular detail, you then need no further downloads whilst you are using it. It also has several layers of projection from large area (as in printed OS maps) right down to street level.
