Depends how much money you want to spend. Advantage og Garmin or Tomtom bike specific is that they are 100% waterproof and are easy to see, mounted on the handlebars at the right angle. No roaming fees either. My Tomtom Rider 2 works 100% of the time and has taken me right across Europe and back I've had it now 6 years and it's bulletproof. But they are £300+. My mate's Garmin resets itself occasionally .....
The trouble with the car ones, or the phone ones, is they are not waterproof. No box is 100% waterproof, and if they are in a tank bag they are difficult to read. I've ridden with mates using them and they have had to rely on mine.
