I like the nokia maps on their phones. I have been using them awhile now and have never has a problem with them, I have used them on my bike in a waterproof casing which fastens to the handlebars. I have also used it in various countries, Thailand and Iraq as well as using it as a sat nav in the UK. The mapping can be used online as you can with Google and apple maps but with the nokia maps you can down load the map on to the phone to use off line. Although I could not get Laos maps for it. The GPS quickness I have found to be good and picks up the signals well and whilst I was planning for my trip in Thailand and Laos (which is where I am now) I was putting in Long Lat grids, and after experimenting and dropping off the E and N from the Long Lat I found it worked on my Thai mapping
As the the phone its a standard Nokia Windows phone, they may not be as robust as most but if you get a decent case then it should be fine
