  1. Garmin Nuvi 770 GPS Review

    Reviewer: Laptop Logic™
    27 May 2008

    The Nuvi 770 is an impressive navigation device that is feature rich with a nice display, good tracking, and decent Bluetooth implementation. Audio quality was good, spoken street names were excellent, and maps and routing proved to be very good as well. However, there are some features that didn't make it in to this specific model range and at the price points, is sort of disappointing. Pros Cons Had it not be a steeper choice for most consumers, the Garmin Nuvi 770... Read more

    As expected the Garmin Nuvi 750/760/770 is a solid performer, navigating routes with ease, and confidence. I would rate it a Top Pick for the GPS buyers and for the months to come. Clearly takes its rightful place at the top of the Garmin line. The wide, bright screen with the new layout of buttons allows for quick easy entry of information and data. The Nuvi 750/760/770 has a lot of features, which brings along a lot of options and changes to be made. Despite this... Read more

    First off I will say that Garmin does make a great product the software is user friendly. Although I have not used the Bluetooth application yet it is nice to know it is available. I have not had it long so I cannot go through all of the features yet. But I have be able to put in multiple addresses and it has taken me to all my destinations. I have noticed that some newer shopping area and roads were not listed so you will periodically have to update the maps to get the... Read more

    Be careful leaving even the suction cup on the windshield... since thiefs will smash the glass to look for the unit. My 83 year old father had his sunroof and side window smashed in, and the unit wasn't in the car! Using a USB port to charge while not in the car is no big deal. We got the unit with the european maps, since we go on cruises and like to carry the GPS to walk and explore cities. We can always find our way back to the cruise ship this way too! I got a...
