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.

    Garmin is the only GPS device I use and trust, and the DriveSmart 61 LMT-S is the best Garmin I have ever used (I currently have 4 other Garmin GPS devices and have had more in the past.)

    This is our 5th Garmin GPS. We get the bigger screen each time. We travel twice a week out of state. Very nice GPS. The blue tooth works well with our cell phones. The large screen is a plus also.

    This unit worked so well, I bought it again. I keep one in the truck and one in the car. I love the large format. It's very easy to see with these old eyes.

    Haven't used it much but it has a great display and clear audio. Haven't used the Bluetooth/ hands free feature as my car has it already but it's a neat feature if your car don't have hands free

    My old GPS broke and I was using my phone for a while. The phone worked fine as a GPS but was difficult to make and receive calls while using it as a GPS. The voice command works great...

    I really neeeded to update from my older TomTom. It ran out of memory and couldn't be updated any longer. The added features on the Garmin have taken a while to learn, but a definite improvement.

    This Garmin is a great GPS Map system and can also interact directly with your smart phone. With the addition of the rear view camera system it can also double as a backup camera. Great Product.

    Good gps will take you where you need to go. Traffic updates are not the best it will eventually redirect you. Voice command is ok nothing special can’t really hear you even if the volume on your radio is low.

    This replaces my old Garmin, love to voice command, and the big screen. Had issues with map updates on my old unit, hoping they get it right before sending out the next update.
