Garmin nuvi 2475LT GPS receiver

In my review of the Garmin Nuvi 50 (Essential Series), I stated that Garmin's interface for its entry-level portable navigation devices hasn't changed much over the last decade. So color me surprised when, upon booting up the Garmin Nuvi 2495LMT, I was...

The Garmin Nuvi 2495LMT 's updated interface makes searching for destinations and navigation both faster and more precise. Garmin's truly hands-free voice command system is one of the best in the portable navigation business. Lifetime map and traffic...

The Bluetooth connection doesn't sync with a phone's address book. Slow map rendering hinders overall performance.

With its improved interface, the Garmin Nuvi 2495LMT (Advanced Series) is as easy to use as earlier models, while offering a good blend of advanced features at a reasonable price.

Garmin nuvi 2475LT

The Garmin nüvi 2475LT is the sole trans-Atlantic model in Garmin's 2012 nuvi Advanced series. One of the more significant refreshes in recent years, the Advanced series adds several new customization options, improved search functionality and Exit...

Preloaded maps of Europe and North America ; Strong customization options ; Exit services ; Lifetime traffic ; Excellent Bluetooth sound quality ; POIs can be displayed on the map ; Offers several choices of routes ; Extensive junction view and lane...

Traffic is ad-supported and is beginning to get more intrusive with coupon icons appearing on the map screen when moving ; No powered mount ; Slight lag in menu responsiveness

Highly recommended. Even with my love of powered mounts (missing here), the nuvi Advanced series rocks. New (and very useful) customization options, exit services and choices of routes will tempt many nuvi owners to upgrade. It looks like Garmin has...

Replacement for my Nuvi 610

I got this unit to replace my old Nuvi 610 that died last year. I use it for when renting cars and trips to UK and it is great.

Good but not great

My wife and I bought this garmin specifically for a trip to Europe. I have owned Garmins in the past and have found them to have been very useful and relatively easy to use. Unfortunately that is no longer as true. To begin with, the new models no...

Very dissappointing for a Garmin

This is the 4th Garmin I have used. It by far is the most disappointing. The pluses are that it is faster calculating routes than the second generation models. There were several reasons I disliked this model. First, the traffic feature is practically...

happy traveler

We have had our Garmin for about a month and are very happy with it. We had a little trouble entering addresses at first but worked out that once you enter the street address it will default to searching all the cities (and states) nearby but you can...

Garmin Nuvi 2455LMT

I like it. Took a little to get used to the differences from my Nuvi 360 which I loved but replaced after many years when the screen kept freezing. The only regret with the new one is I wish I opted for the model with Bluetooth which I had on my old...

Love it

We love this Garmin. Our only complaint is that it repeatedly sounds "bing, bing, bing" any time you exceed the posted speed limit by even one mile per hour. There doesn't seem to be anyway to disable or alter this "feature" except to turn off the...
