Garmin Nuvi 265WT review: Garmin Nuvi 265WT - Roadshow

 

Garmin Nuvi 265WT

The Garmin Nuvi 265WT offers integrated Bluetooth and a lifetime of free traffic alerts. The portable GPS also has a spacious touch screen and text-to-speech functionality.

We wish the audible traffic alerts and route recalculations were a little faster. Call quality was mixed.

Despite some minor performance issues, the Garmin Nuvi 265WT is a good value GPS, offering a number of high-end features for an affordable price.

Review: Garmin Nuvi 265WT GPS device

 

Navigation unit offers premium features at a budget-friendly price.

When it first shipped, Garmin broke ground by offering a built-in traffic receiver with subscription-free, advertising-supported lifetime traffic alerts. While driving, you'll occasionally get a pop-up alert for one of the advertisers, but it doesn't...

GPS devices are finally coming down in price. Does that mean you have to give up functionality? Not if the Garmin Nuvi 265WT is any indication. Keep reading for a closer look at this relatively low-priced device; you'll be surprised at how well it...

Developed as a flagship model for the Nuvi 2x5 line, the Garmin Nuvi 265WT was meant to wow consumers with its price and functionality. Sure, it's not the cheapest system out there, but which is better… paying $100 for a device that's crap, or paying...

Garmin nuvi 265WT review

 

The Garmin nüvi 265WT is one of the second-generation models in the nuvi 2×5 series, which I dubbed the “best entry level GPS on the market.” This series offers more mid-line features though; in addition to everything that made the 2×5 series a hit,...
