Magellan Switch Up - REVIEW

The Magellan Switch and Switch Up GPS computer for biking, running and multi-sport activities is a compact, useful training device for tracking statistics (heart rate, location, speed, elevation, etc…) while providing limited navigational ability. However, the usefulness of the Switch suffers from difficult to navigate buttons, a small screen and on more than one occasion, the device froze.

I used the Magellan Switch primarily for biking applications; however, I did try the wristwatch option a couple of times. The bike mount works well and the compact size means the device was unobtrusive and relatively light. I found the wristwatch mount bulky and cumbersome, and wouldn’t use this for anything other than running, and often not even then.

Plenty more to read about this one in our gear reivew pages over here.
