gps with long battery life

"Spot on...Love it...The Smartlink app is a real battery killer....I got this GPS no to long ago, and put it to use last week going to Oregon and performed flawless, I like it very much but I really need to get a sand bag for it because the lack of room in between the dashboard and windshield on my jeep wrangler, otherwise is great"

"Love it...It's ok...USB cable does not charge unit ....I have been using it for about a week now as I prepare for a 14.5 hour road trip here in the next month and this GPS has done a great job so far of routing me to the correct destination without to any incidents and I love the ability to get text messages on the screen (which because of its screen size the text messages do not interfere with the map at all and the GPS handles things very smoothly)."

"Love it...It's ok...Works very well, charges fast....My car has a switched power point, and so I never have to worry about turning on / turning off the GPS, it just comes on when I start the car, and off when I stop the car."

"Works very well, charges fast."

"love it...Nice GPS...First one didn't keep A charge....I al happy with my new garmin gps it has a lot of new features and they are super helpful I recommend 100% With the traffic report and maps for lifetime it's more than usual need but you have to keep improving with technology and garmin it's the best gps there is"

"First one didn't keep A charge."

"Good GP$...love it!...I would highly recommend that Garmin figure a way to make this wireless and have it run off a rechargeable battery as the cord needs to be hidden somehow....I applied it to the windshiled as instructed and it holds really well with the magnet and I installed it on a cold day and I wondered how well it would hold...it is on there solid."

"Love it...Nice GPS...Also, battery wears down quickly with GPS on....The screen provides a great image but I do recommend adding an anti-glare screen protector because when the sun hits it, it is difficult to see especially if you are using it with a backup camera."

"Good GPS...GPS good...What I don't like is the battery does not hold charge very long - maybe 1 hour or so....I have had a Garmin for many years...this is an upgrade for me and I love everything about it...but I will admit that I get flustrated when I voice command an address...it takes s few times for her to get it right, (maybe it's my accent...lol) sometimes I just have put in address by keyboard..."

"Best Motorcycle GPS so far...Other than that... thumbs up....I would have actually preferred to be able to remove the wiring loom from the mount (you can't without cutting it) and just using the battery....It took a little bit to understand how it works to connect to both my phone and my headset at the same time, but once I figured it out it works great."

"It's ok...Love it...There is no battery in the unit and you will have to live with the cable....Things I DONT like: - this thing has to be wired at all times, it is Ugly, can be hidden well with some work, but still, I don't understand how when they designed it to be fixed on the left side of the windshield they ended up pacing the charging slot on the right side, and the 2 buttons on the left side."

"He loved it...Works great!...Battery doesn't last long....I tested next to a friend using a watch GPS, and we were consistently within +/- 3 yards of one another the entire round."
