Consumer review (newegg.com)

Works fine when I used it

 

Pretty much useless with smartphones these days.

Works. Could put music on it

Bad pronounciations or directions sometimes.

Economy indicator

 

I would like a GPS that is a GPS, not a camera, not an MP3 player, not a USB storage device, no WiFi. Oh, and how about one that lasts. Any US company out there remember a thing called Quality?

Good price.

Would lock up. Locked up when I needed to go to a job interview. Pulled battery, booted super slow. Two weeks out of warranty. Screen went to the map detail disappearing. Then the screen went blank. Would still tell me when to turn. Then after three...

Paper weight

 

Looked really cool

Very sleek looking, has all the bells and whistles.

Thing was partially DOA. Stupid thing wouldnt locate satellites and the worst part was when I tried the locate me function it said I was somewhere in Kansas... I live in Washington state.. so RMA time.

Nice GPS... decent other features.

 

This was a GREAT price and deal from newegg at the time... which is why I picked it up. It may have its flaws, but for 75 bucks, it's hard to pass up a new Garmin GPS unit.

Light, cheap, easy to use, and bright. Weather feature is nice, and being able to use WiFi is kinda cool as well. It's very slim, and stylish... easily mistaken-able for a phone. The screen is large and a pretty decent quality resolution. It also came...

I think it's a resistive touchscreen, so it's not the most "accurate" touch system in the world. It gets by, but sometimes it gets annoying. It's also kinda important to note that, even when you touch it lightly (I'm not smashing it by any means), you...

Must be kidding!

 

The followings are not graded (eggs) in the review. Camera = plus (but picture quality is really bad, won't work under low light); Web & email = plus (but screen is too small to display all the information), no setting for media card (format, listing...

i bought this for gps! to be fair, I will only grade this on gps. fast & accurate, easy installation, easy to understand menu, includes mounting kit, small and doesn't block your view, remembers your recent entries.

voice is ugly, speaker is VERY weak, no traffice report, shortest time is dumb because took me 30 more minutes following its direction, screen dims while gps is active while driving like 5 min. battery life is pretty short, it speaks whenever it likes...

Great for the price

 

For the money it's a great little gps. For me it aquired the signal quite quickly. Weather reports is a great feature. I love the fact that you can replace your battery just like in a cellphone. My last garmin had to be sent in to change the battery.

Camera is not great quality. When ever I tried to use the internet it locked up. Too small really for surfing anyway. Don't want to really be too critical since I paid less than 100 bucks

Good product that needs a bit of fine-tuning

 

A product like this at this price range. (I paid $90 at NewEgg), I would say buy it! This is a little gadget that wants to be everything. Unfortunately, it is not. BUT fortunately, there are features that I like and that they work VERY well for me. GPS...

GPS: I give a 5 star for the GPS feature. It works every time and pretty accurate MP3 player: I give a 4 for the MP3 Player feature. It's not bad at all. I do have iPod nano. Featurewise, Nano is better but sound qualitywise, not bad! WI-FI feature: I...

WI-FI connectivity is very weak. Web browsing is painful. Touch screen sucks! These three things combined can give you a heart attack! <---if you were to compare it to iPad, iPhone, Touch, or Samsung Galaxy.

Great as a GPS

 

in 2008 I bought my Nuvi 360 for $220, I'm regretting that now but what can I do? I did get this off of another site that has to do with a river for $74 and a free case. Would I get it again, yes! For the GPS and the extras are nice too! Garmin has a...

It's a great gps with extras that come with it, camera and other gadgets. I use it mainly as a gps. I love Garmin for it's GPS capabilities...Garmin rocks!!! It's slim, compact, light, very portable. Faster processor than my Nuvi 360. You get a free...

-It came in a brown box, strange but it works -The sound is very low despite having it on the highest volume compared to my Nuvi 360. -It has a 2.5 mm jack, I will need to get an adapter if I decide to use the mp3 player. -The web browser is horrible,...
