    I have an older vehicle without GPS. This is nearly perfect. Has a clear easy to read screen and forever updates. Much better than having family in the car telling you five directions all at once.

    This adds nice voice command and phone-linked functions to a bigger screen gps. Much easier to work with than older models with smaller screens.

    I just love this GPS. I had many Garmin GPS systems, overall this is the best yet. Used it on a recent 8 hour trip and it worked great. Returned home on another day and it worked as expected.

    We have always used Garmin GPS systems, and this one does not disappoint. It has way more features than I will ever use, but it is a great, intuitive, easy to use navigator. Very happy with this purchase!

    Bought this GPS on Feb 21, 2021 and used it twice to see how it worked as it was going to be a back up. The second time using it was today (3/13/2021) on a mini road trip with my wife. It worked find going where we were going but on the way back it started to act weird and shut off. We were disappointed not only for what I paid for it but because it was plugged in the whole trip. I brought it back to BestBuy for an exchange hoping the next one will work better for us which is why I gave it a two star review. It is a nice GPS if it works.

    I love it, 2 things that need be improved are #1 Current Location on the bottom should be a whole row to itself where you can see and read the entire length of the roads you're on, I don't like how it shows a limited number of characters, it be very useful especially in places where there no street signs and boy I been on roads like that. #2 Battery life is short but in my case I like keeping it plugged in

    Replaced a stolen 6" Garmin and was pleasantly surprised with teh feature and screen size without being much bigger. The BT connection to my phone is very useful and I get alerts that were not available before in my older vehicle.

    Now I finally know where I am going most of the time. Lol. Seriously though, this is a great GPS all around. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who is looking for a GPS system. Decent price, too.
