    Had to return the first one, would not hold a charge for long. Would quit working while driving even when it was plugged into the power. 2nd one so far is working much better.

    This GPS does everything a GPS is supposed to do and it does it very well. The display is vivid and to voice communication is both clear and accurate. Unless you are going to fly an airplane, this one will give you everything you need to get where you are going.

    I actually have 2 of these. One in my sons car and one in my work car. Both have worked great. Only complaint is the extra searching it does for addresses being that it doesn’t ask what state or city first. It asks for a house number and street name and then searches a specific radius. You can modify the search after the fact, and enter the city and state. That’s no big deal unless you drive all day everyday for work like I do. It can be a pain at times. Otherwise it’s a great GPS!!!

    My wife had a old 5" garmin that went bad while we were on vacation and we stop at a Best Buy to purchase a new one and we decided to get this model. It is a good model, not all the bell and whistles but has everything you need to get from point A to point B.

    With no instructions included it was very frustrating to figure it out. I have another Garmin and it was user friendly and easy to set up and use, so I was surprised that this was so complicated. However I received a text from Best Buy inviting me to come in for a demonstration and set up. I gladly accepted their offer and the associate from Geek Squad was very helpful. After a few minutes he had it set up and explained every thing to me. He also told me I could download the manual on my computer

    This gps unit makes a great alternate to my smart phone. The update took a little longer than I would have liked but it's nice to have a dedicated navigation unit. I hate it when my phone gets too hot sitting on the dashboard acting as my gps unit. My only one concern is that the places of interest (stores, banks, etc.) aren't as up to date as you would see on your smartphone. I found myself going in circles looking for a Best Buy ironically lol.
