    • Love all the features...
    • It took me a while to learn how to use this model having had another Garmin with a smaller screen since 2008 but the more I use this one it has really nice features to make a driving trip more fun and secure, like warnings
    • Great value for a GPS, big screen, all the useful features, plus Garmin quality and support.
    • Able to update firmware and maps from PC very nice feature.
    • works great.love the features... especially "in school zone" warningand split screen for huge freeway exits.
    • Improved features include speed warnings near school zones, better color warning when speed limit is exceeded, etc
    • On my old nuvi, I had downloaded different vehicle icons and voices to suit me, and I was mildly disappointed that this feature is no longer supported or available.

    • Great Product...take time to set it up correctly and adjust the brightness...has a lot of nice features

    • I like the features but it totally died after only 4 months.
    • One can find a few missing features if one nit-picks, but thus far the nav has performed flawlessly, without distracting me from driving
    • This has some cool features however my only problem with this (and it's huge to me) is that the street maps are very incomplete
    • Easy to work and understand, many innovative features.

    • This has some cool features however my only problem with this (and it's huge to me) is that the street maps are very incomplete

    • I like the features but it totally died after only 4 months.
    • It has many good features.
    • Of course the mapping is faster when you’re driving, but it also has some nice features.
    • She loves it especially the lane assist feature.
    • Loved the speed limit feature that showed you what the speed limit was in every area
    • Love the traffic feature
    • Works great especially the feature of landmarks for where you need to turn
    • The "Real Directions" that gives landmarks and traffic lights is the most useful feature of any gps, ever.
    • Improved features include speed warnings near school zones, better color warning when speed limit is exceeded, etc
    • Love the feature that tells you your arrival time to the destination.
    • very good car navigation companion with many good features.
    • I love the feature where it pops up and shows you the detailed exit ramp information when using a destination off a freeway.
    • I use the clip that uses the A/C heat vent and there isn't much room between the radio and the gauges so having this feature is nice.
    • new updated garmins have some very nice new features.
    • Improved features from our earlier Nuvi
    • So far I like all the features and easy to read screen.
    • Better features from my last Nuvi5 GPS

    • Love the new features!
    • Easy to use, lifetime map is a a great feature.
    • and this GPS stays simple and easy to use, with excellent features.
    • This one has some great new features.
    • My favorite feature though on this new version (my first one was many years old) is the chime that sounds when approaching school zones......nice to be extra aware of what's approaching.....
    • Love the updated features and it's easy to use
    • Nice feature is it tells which side of the road your destination is on when you get there
    • It does have some useful features.
    • To correct that when I go back there, it has a NEAT feature where you can indicate boundaries on the map for an area you want to avoid going into --- very cool --- so then it automatically takes you around --- keeping you from enter the area you designated as the "no go" area.
    • I always recommend garmin to family and friends for the excellent features and the reasonable interface.
    • I had no such problem, the battery works as it should and lasts a very long time (haven't tested it to see exactly how long, one of these days I will try just to see), although obviously if you're going on a long trip it's probably better to just keep it plugged in if you can
    • I dont really need the traffic notification, but having the map pulled up and encountering a problem, does afford an on-the-fly alternative route option to go around it.
    • Time will tell if its as great as I think after only using it once..
    • Further, the device does not update your current location on the map as fast as it should be, which gives a chance for missing a turn or an exit
    • My elderly aunt wanted this brand, and it is NOT user friendly, doesn't offer bypass routes, and simply didn't work as it said
    • The traffic info came i handy as it would let you know if there was an accident or roadwork ahead causing delays.
    • Worked as it should have
