I use a Galaxy S4 currently, and tbh I had never thought of looking at a replacement battery, I will have a look to see if the S4 has an ANT receiver built in I will look at the other threads around recommended GPS units too! Thanks

Hi all, sorry if this has been mentioned to death I use a smartphone for Geocaching, I have 20gb data a month so that isn't an issue but the battery life on my phone is dire. I am thinking of investing in a GPS but literally have no idea how it works, or whether a smart phone's benefits outweigh the negative phone battery. I've been reading into chirp caches and some of the benefits of having a dedicated GPS device. Is it a case that on a handheld GPS I input the data directly from a PC and away I go? Or do some GPS devices have a version of the app installed? I like the ease of being able to not plan my caching ahead of time , such as yesterday when I found my self a couple of hours to kill, I imagine thats not the case with a GPS? Can anyone recommend a GPS device (UK) that doesn't break the bank? Thanks in advance Matt
