cant go wrong with Garmin
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Garmin continues to provide the best GPS on the market. The price was nice and affordable for this especially combined with a coupon. I will be using it for my upcoming road trip.
I would recommend this to a friend Great tool to use on road
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is undoubtedly most accurate navigation tool to use on road. You do not need to worry about signals (like using your phone). Do not forget to update your maps!!
I would recommend this to a friendSomewhat disapointed
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this for my son because it had good reviews and it seemed to be a best seller. My son complains that it doesn't always recognize address's. The app on his phone works better.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendGood if you want to save on your phone data plan..
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am always traveling. Whether it is for my business, travel sports for my children or leisure I am always GPS'ing my location. I have always relied on my phones GPS and wanted to cut back on data use since I use it to stream music as well while I am on the road. I saw a sale for this Garmin for $99. Purchased. Updated online. Still cant find addresses. At least on my phone it will get me to the road if it cant find the exact home/buiding. It is frustrating. I would go with a GPS that has speech to text because typing in the information takes way too long and is frustrating when it does not recognize your touch (which is often).

I would recommend this to a friend average one for the price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sometimes after starting the GPS the voice hangs and it will take easily 2 to 3 minutes after driving for the GPS to bring back the voice. sometimes it becomes very risky when you are travelling in a new route.
