As an avowed cartophile, I am always disappointed by the high cost of GPS
units. But the good news is you really don't need to fork out a lot of money

These days, most smartphones are on par with any GPS device. In fact, since
most phones have processors many times more powerful than any handheld GPS,
they have a better user interface and higher functionality.
