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.

    i dont understand why people so excited about this item, first of all it takes more than 1 minute to turn this thing on.. once screen is off overnight i guess and next day you press "on" button and nothing happens! then you press and hold for like minute and nothing! then randomly it turns on.. great thing about is screen and lane guidance, and that you can put it on same level as your eyes. finding location takes time and not always finds.. for example google map takes 1-2 second, this thing will easily take 30 seconds! best part is calculating route.. goes like : calculating 1% calculating 4% calculating 8% calculating 11% calculating 13% calculating 14% calculating 18% calculating 19%.... you get idea

    The Garmin-DriveSmart is a great tool for travel in new locations and your hometown. I have used it to locate restaurants and other services, at home and in new cities. It not only gives you the posted speed limit, but the actual speed of your vehicle. I am still learning all the new features, but am overall very satisfied with the ease of operation.

    While there is nothing wrong with this go’s there is nothing amazing either. We purchased it for long road trips so we didn’t have to rely on our phones for navigation but In order to use traffic you need to correct it your phone. Instead I found we just used our phone when we knew we were entering high traffic areas
