QuestionIs this product better than the Garmin 2555LMT gps?Does it have any additional features that the 2555LMT gps does not have?
Asked 12 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer This should help you out. I would go with the 2557lmt just because it gives you the option to Auto Sort Multiple Destinations. So if you have a road trip you can just enter all your data in then hit the road. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?id=cat13504&type=page&pageIdentity=searchDriven&useProductString=true&productString=1218374936129*1218849837496&unProductString=1218374931430*1218374935561*1218849837491*1218849839211*1218849840607*1218849839617*1218849837493*1218849837492*1218849839147*1218840846922*1218456985499*1219060687476*1218374934525&catId=&usc=All+Categories

QuestionDo batteries wear out and are they replaceable?
Asked 11 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer Garmin's nuvi 2557LMT includes a built-in rechargeable lithium-ion battery. While battery life will fade over the course of time and normal use, this is normal for all rechargeable batteries. They are also not consumer-replaceable, so you would need to contact Garmin directly or work with a factory-authorized service provider if your nuvi 2557LMT cannot hold a charge.

QuestionWhich is better?I had a Garmin nuvi 2557LMT which went south traffic info wise. I then got a Tom Tom that got so many bad reviews, I didn't even open the box, and got the 2555. All rave reviews. I tried it for the first time today, and it gave me conflicting info on a very important interchange. Naturally, I chose the wrong one, and ended up in horrible traffic which it didn't even warn me about. Did I not register the 2557 correctly and or is the 2555 and 2557 a suck egg unit? It's going back tomorrow.
Asked 11 years ago by John.
- Answer I have the 2557 for almost a year. I have traveled around San Antonio with no problems. I love the magnified interchange view. I have travel from San Antonio to Biloxi, Mi with no problems. That is over 600 miles. I recommend the 2557 with no reservations.
