as far as directions this Garmin is great. have a lot of information on a large screen. I thought it would have a strong speaker for phone. It doesn't. the volume is at the highest point and people can't hear me well. I switched from Tom Tom to Garmin. Disappointed.

She likes the size (easier to read) and many of the options. She is still figuring out all the bells and whistles on it, but she is pleased with it so far.

Great GPS. Had one for 15 years that took me safely to Florida and back. Replaced it with this one. Bigger screen was easier to read. Liked the traffic warning feature. Fits well in my Acadia and Canyon.

I've been a Garmin fan for years. This is the best one I've had so far. Only down side is just like all Garmin GPS systems they stop holding battery life after about 6 months. Just wish the batteries would last longer.

Great size, like updating over WiFi & connecting backup camera a breeze. Allows you to adjust viewing angle of camera from screen off GPS. Only problem is small connection release to base mount.

i purposely bought this for a trip to D.C. two hours prior to leaving, i did not have any problems with this device after purchasing and doing the updates. the settings are easy to change to your liking. the screen size is decent for the price that you pay for this device.

Overall very happy with the purchase but took out 1 star for a quirk that caused me some headache.
I love the large, clear, informative display with big fonts and helpful guidance popping up now and then. I prefer this layout over Google Maps even when using the latter via Android Auto. Also, it is much better that the built-in navigation in my car. The apps and route planning are good and I like the peace of mind of not having to depend on a data connection. Yes, there is offline maps on my phone but that requires pre-download. The traffic info does work and it was able to save me time by avoiding traffic in multiple occasions. I did have one trouble in Northern California where the Garmin kept making me go around in circles in a residential neighborhood. After 30 frustrating minutes I had to switch to Gmaps to reach my destination. In a second instance, again in Northern California it missed a left turn into my destination and made me take a U-turn up ahead.

Great navigator. I love the fact that you can connect your phone to receive phone calls and transfer an address from your phone seamlessly to the navigator. But the call reception leaves a lot to be desired. The reception on a call cuts in and out so much you feel like you are back in the 90's with call quality.

Outstanding! It is the ideal tool to use if you are traveling. I would not purchase another brand. I have one in both of my vehicles.
