Customers are saying

Customers find value in the DriveSmart 61 LMT-S's large screen size, ease of use, and accurate GPS navigation, frequently praising its voice command functionality and free lifetime map updates. However, some users express concerns regarding the device's limited battery life and the effectiveness of its traffic features. The navigation system, while generally well-received, has received some criticism for occasionally suggesting less-than-optimal routes. Overall, the positive feedback on key features outweighs the negative comments.

    The large, 6.95”, screen on this GPS devise is the perfect size. No more squinting to try and see the map like I had to do on my older and smaller GPS.. Very easy to use, no manual needed. Definitely recommend this Garmin GPS.

    I bought this to replace my 10 year old gps. Love the big screen. Bought the traffic cable so that I don't need to have my phone connected. Tells me weather and traffic. Great features. Easy to use. WiFi connectivity is convenient.

    I've had several GPS devices over the years and have had many different brands. This Garmin is one of the outstanding ones. The large screen makes it difficult to place in some vehicles but once you figure that out the rest is just as good as having a built in one with the flexibility to move it from one vehicle to another. The screen is crystal clear, the features are numerous. It is best if you have a smartphone to pair with it as much of the data (other than mapping) such as traffic and weather, are fed to the device from your smartphone. Traffic information is more reliable and up to date than the ones that use a special antenna to receive traffic. This one can do that you just have to buy the antenna separately. Directions are clear, the voice is clear. My only wish is that a dash cam was built in like on the Nuvi that I used before this one.

    This updated version is way better than my old Garmen. Pros: Bluetooth so you can pair iPhone Touch screen-use your finger or arrows Wi-Fi to update maps-less time Easier programming of favorite locations Ability to completely turn of device (hold rear button down 4seconds-press RED “OFF”. That way you won’t use the the internal battery. Press rear button to turn on again.) Easy setup & use Cons; None This newer version is worth the money. MERRY CHRISTMAS HAPPY NEW YEAR

    Works well with my Android phone. Calls, texts both come through it. Map is large and easy to read. Helps you understand the correct lane and if you have delays, change in speed limit or other traffic issues. I would purchase it again.

    This GPS had what I was looking for, which included voice turn-by-turn directions, a larger screen, and easy set up. But it surprised me with something I didn't expect - voice activation and voice commands. A pleasant surprise.

    I’ve been a Garmin owner/user for over 14 years. They were good in the early years and even better now. The new one is tops, large screen, easy to use and free map updates. Use daily and makes trip driving easier. Well worth the money.

    This Garmin was very easy to learn to use & is able to connect to my vehicle's WiFi. It was a replacement to a Garmin that we have had for probably 6+ years. The screen resolution is really great & the screen is a perfect size.

    I'm still playing around with all the goodies, but it has bluetooth tech, so it can pair to your phone or Garmin Watch as well, nice big screen. Quite responsive screen, and the search function is pretty intuitive as well

    Initially bought the 61 LM but noticed it wasn't as big as the 61-LMTS (old eyes) The device does everything I want it to & more. I dont know how to hook up the other features (Blue Tooth) since I am technically challenged!

    This is our 3rd Garmin GPS. They always work well. My disappointment is with the B B member who told us how it functioned without really knowing. He said the Garmin we were buying would give us real time traffic updates through the satellite tracking system. In fact it needs to be pared with a phone in order for that to work. No problem except that we have a Windows phone (no comments please) which is not compatible.

    I purchased this to replace the one in my wife's truck. It was an older Garmin. She found this one much more responsive and easier to control. It makes me feel better that she can use the built in hands free to answer her phone and not have to be distracted. Also love the fact she can speak the directions and the Garmin responds. Well worth the amount i paid.
