"I found this unit to be a hindrance rather than a help"
No local golf courses shown, indicated nearest golf was 70 miles away. Could only find 2 gas stations in my area and one of those has been shut down and demolished for 10 years. Could not locate...
How is the unit connected for use away from the car? I read in a previous review that it can be operated from a laptop or from a mains power adaptor. There is a USB connector on the back of the...
Pros: Very good, visually Cons: Not portable I bought the nuvi 5000, but I'm taking it back to BestBuy. It's not portable. It needs the battery connection TO THE CAR to make it work. (That's NOT...
I have owned numerous GPS devices over the years and this 770 is without a doubt, the best unit on the market. The 770 is the same as the 760 only the 770 includes maps of Europe. I was able to...
I purchased this Garmin 770 from Amazon as a "New" product. When I tried to register it with Gamin I was informed that is was "Used" and "previously registered". Amazon would take no...
"I agree with CNET review, dissappointed with this unit"
I purchased a couple to replace our Zumo 550 and C330. This units seems much more sluggish than our previous units. The Zumo had similar features and seemed to perform well but got rid of my bike...
Pros: good when it works Cons: doesn't work often For the first month or so I enjoyed using my Nuvi 760. It worked well. Then, all of a sudden it lost the signal and has not been able to find it...
Editors' note: The following review is of the Garmin Nuvi 750. The Nuvi 760 is identical to the 750 in nearly every way, except that the 760 adds Bluetooth hands-free calling and an FM Traffic data...
Pros: Bluetooth, shows the posted speed limit, calculates FAST, has MANY more features than my previous Streetpilot. Cons: None to this date. I was originally going to go with the 780 however there...
I really liked this GPS because it is not too big that it gets in your way, but is it also not so small that you have a hard time seeing it. The GPS never failed to get me to my destination, but...
There are just too many flaws to enumerate. Everything from what is included with the unit, how the unit preforms, to customer service. I am very dissapointed, would not recommend one, and will...
Larger screens may be nice for some people and are especially good for the manufacturers because they fetch higher prices, but I prefer the way the smaller screen looks in my window rather than the...
I've had other Magellan productw with no issues. I was really excited about purchasing this model based on my research on the web. I helped a relative purchase a 1412 and it appeared to work...
I bought the tomtom go 910 alittle over two years ago the connection between the gps and the charger came loose and stopped taking a charge. I called the company thinking the could help only to...
I first got the navigon, and i was very disappoint , so i decide to get tomtom, and i read the review before buying but i didnt really believe, and im not happy, The voice sound is very very bad, i...
TomTom is the market leader in portable navigation, and to a large degree its success in this area can be attributed to the popular ONE unit. Featuring an ultra-compact design that slips into your...
Entry-level GPS are a dime a dozen these days, but the TomTom XL 330S stands out for a couple of reasons. It updates the TomTom One XL with a better speaker and sleeker design, while keeping the...
I bought the tomtom go 910 alittle over two years ago the connection between the gps and the charger came loose and stopped taking a charge. I called the company thinking the could help only to...
My unit came with a right angle mounting cord which works well and helps to keep the cord out of the way. The directions are clear and the route picks seem to work well. The unit picks up...
This is a great unit especially for the price. The software was extremely easy to use and the interface on the unit is better than the Garmin in my opinion. I had alot of trouble with the Garmin...

The Garmin 855 is a very nice unit. I've owned Tom Toms and Magellans before, but they never had all of the features I've wanted. This unit has it all, it's easy to use, has a nice display that's...
Knowing the street i'm approaching is a useful feature that exists in previous models. The lack of that feature in the 855 makes this model much less useful. I know what street I'm driving on, I...
Pros: size, screen bluetooth Cons: phone book, lack of software map updates bought unit after reviewing many units.software to transfer phone info never developed after being by told by Pioneer it...
The pioneer navigation sysytem is the best thing that i have spent my money on in a long time. I would recommend everyone to buy this product. You will never get lost or ask for directions again.
I've had my unit for just over a year and have been fairly satisfied with it. My son's Garmin 340 is more user friendly, though. My real problem is with the tech support. I've made at least 35...
This is a great feature rich portable unit which is light and the use of SD card allows for saved data. BT functionality is very useful and easy to use. However, unit functionality is not easy to...
Magellan hasn't learned to keep its controls as simple as Garmin has, and using the 6000T's menus can be tricky. We dislike that you must exit the route screen to see the destination menu, which...
The screen is nice and after 3 Garmin failures, I purchased the 6000. The unit is slow to calculate, especially when changing screens while a route is active. The unit freezes often and the memory...
I purchased my Megellan Roadmate 1440 four months ago, I think that this is a very good system. For me, this is a good investment and am pleased with the 1440. It always get me to where I am...
This item is no longer made. It works with the Tom Tom GO7OO. I purchased it to replace the one that was messed up when someone broke in my car and attempted to steal my Tom Tom and the docking...
I did not keep this item as I found out that, though blue-tooth enabled, it could not be upgraded for other blue tooth telephones and only could work with only one telephone model. A new kit is to...
The main reason that I bought this mount is so that the TomTom could talk through the car stereo speakers. Since I have all aftermarket stuff it didn't work so well. The TomTom box adds so much...
I'll keep this short. The Pharos hardware is great; fast, accurate, flexible (CF, Bluetooth, cabled), compact. The Ostia software is great; easy to use (love the "Home" and "Auto Re-route"...
i love this head unit. i strongly recommed this product for anyone who is interested in a nice and clean entertainment head unit. the navi is quite accurate with the turn by turn directions. dvd...
Beware of DVD navigation. I have had mine for 2 years and there is no plans for an updated DVD disk. Crutchfield refers you to Eclipse and Eclipse ignores any inquiries. A search on the web...
Eclipse delivers an evolutionary, rather than revolutionary, upgrade to its all-in-one in-car navigation and multimedia lineup with the AVN6620. The double-DIN system features a similar design to...
Nice GPS Navigator, just need little more improvements. Maps are kind of Old and need update. there is no source given to update maps online other then CD comes with it.
The unit works OK. The feature of the MP3 player is very good but unusual in its operation. A manual explaining this feature might be nice. It has to use "invalid files" for content but there is...
I love the unit size, screen, menus, who it works, etc. But as in another review here, the bottom line is getting there in time. My old Garmin and my laptop using nRoute both gave me the short...
Couldn't be happier,my wife's happiness was paramount, it passed the test.... Great mounting bracket that stays put in the Florida heat, easy to relocate as needed..Maps up to date along with the...
bought this for my wife.. at first we were amazed at its Text-to-speed capability: absolutely amazing! its loud and sound human.. possibly the best TTS pronounciation I've ever heard. Also, the...
The only problem I have with this unit is the Bluetooth feature. Garmin has yet to get me a permanent fix. So when the Bluetooth locks up the whole unit I have to plug it back into my computer and...
"Prefers using local City streets and no way around it."
I have a nuvi 350 and 680. Both will choose city streets over the highway route. The only avoid option I have checked is Car pool lanes. There should be an option to prefer highways as does the...
"Usually does not display names of streets being crossed"
I don't want to just follow the spoken directions (which are quite good). I like to know what street I'm currently driving on and what streets I'm crossing. The 275T does not display the name of...
Overall I like the DNX5120. I picked it up when the price dropped below 500. I purchaed everything I needed to istall this in my car. I purchased the PAC controller to plug right into my Ford...
The interface is clunky, reminds me of a DOS operating system. For the price (you could buy a full computer, granted a low-end model, but it would work better) the software has major glitches and...
