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.

Nice Big Screen
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Screen seems even bigger than my 6" 65 LMT which was stolen. Too big for suction cup on windshield so you'll need to buy the biggest stand. Can't remember model number but was only about $20. Have a new vehicle with built in navigation. The garmin finds places that the car can't all the time. The garmin map layout and lane directions are so much better than other gps units I've used (stock vehicle, apple maps, google). Great when traveling to big cities when there's 7 lanes (i.e., LA!) and you need to be in the 3rd lane from the left.

Manufacturer supplied charging cable is a failure
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a gift from my wife. I couldn't turn it on and experiment with it since it was only 6% charged. I connected the charging cable and received a message that the charging cable is not compatible [or something like that], and will not charge the unit. I did some research on the internet and others have experienced the same problem. I returned the item and am back to using the map app on my smart phone. Garmin, you used to be good; not anymore.

Great navigation device
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this as my husband was working out of town and he would need the other GPS we had for his job. We bought this one for me. I love it. I like the optional settings such as the "reminder" to take a break for food, fuel or restroom (which gives you an option for each). I highly recommend this for anyone.
