This was given as a 70th birthday present for me dad who likes road trips. He is enjoying the Garmin.
I bought this for my wife because she is geographic illerate. Didn't think I would like it at all (maybe because i'm a guy and don't need directions),but we took it on a ski trip north day after christmas. We hit an ice storm that had sem
I started with the Garmin IQ3600 then got a Nuvie 680 (this is a great GPS) and now I have the Nuvi 880. I bought it because of the voice activate control. When it works it is great. However, it is not as great as I had hoped. Rain, wind, radio, traff
I received my Garmin Nuvi 880 just before heading up North to Maine for a Vacation. It arrived early. The "extra" charger that I thought I might need did not fit the product which requires a special charger to get MSN so be careful---not the se
This unit is wonderful. The audio is great, the screen can easily be seen in bright daylight, and the maps are easy to read. This unit can do multiple things and we have not tried everything, but what we have tried is amazing. I would highly recommend thi
My goodness this is one incredible piece of equipment, it's absolutely worth the money I spent for it, a winner, I absolutely love it. I recently spent some time getting lost on a trip into LA's tangled freeway jungle and the Nuvi got me back on
I had resisted getting a GPS because "I don't need one," but my wife ordered the Nuvi 880 for me for Christmas, and it is one of the best presents I have received. I will admit upfront that I use the British female voice, which is labeled &
Bought this for my wife (a non-techie), knowing it had many more features than she'd use or care about, but I like the tech toys and knew with its portability that it would find its way in to my vehicle from time to time. Was a bit skeptical about th
The 880 has been discontinued (right after I bought it), but it works great. Especially the MSN Direct traffic capability. Save quite a bit of time by avoiding back-ups on the Baltimore beltway and I95.
I bought this unit as a gift due to the ease of use with the voice recognition. The person has been very happy with it and has had no problems. She was even surprised that it found a different and quicker route than one that she was use to. It acquires
this is my first GPS. what else can i say just awesome!!!! totally awesome!!!! you cannot get lost with this device. this nuvi 880 is just superb! i would recommend to everyone i know. just can't say enough i wonder what took me so long to get one. i
Garmin nuvi 880 4.3-Inch Widescreen Bluetooth Portable GPS Navigator We have had a Garmin 2620 Street Navigator for years. The Nuvi 880 is a fantastic step forward. Easy to use, great graphics, so many features we haven't tried them all yet. Voice co
I've had a Garmin 660 that I have loved for the past couple of years so decided to give my spouse the latest & greatest for Christmas this year. We drove across country using this newer model & we couldn't be happier! Garmin has improved
What a great device! Easy to use, large screen makes navigation a breeze. This is my third Garmin unit and it's by far the best. Voice recognition takes a little time to get used to but now there's no more leaning over to touch the screen and r
I am a "GPS buff", having had a GPS for flying since '97 and one for driving since '02, and have had several for various functions (flying, hiking, driving) since then. While not perfect, this is the best one I have seen for driving,
Xmas gift for wife, she loves it!!!! Easy to use, works well. She'll never be lost again. Thanks Garmin!!!!
Although I already own a model 360, the speech function was something I was interested in. We travel considerably, and there is no distraction with this functionality. I would recommend to anyone.
Have been using the Garmin Nuvi 880 for several months and on two trips over 2000 miles each. It is as advertised, the best yet by Garmin or any other I have seen. I was somewhat leary about the voice recognition but it works, about 90% accurate on the fi
Bought as a gift for my wife. Works as described. Voice instructions are a strong point. FM transmission is weak and should be improved; but this is only negative. Excellent GPS!
Very satisified with the Garmin nuvi 880. Works as advertised. Have not had any problems. My first GPS device. Would not hesitate to recommend.
First time owner of a GPS. Purchased it about 1 month ago. Used it to travel through Maryland, Pennsylvania, Washington DC - all territory unknown to me. Worked perfectly. Always took me were I wanted to go. Voice recognition was outstanding. Bluetooth
This is an outstanding product. Works GREAT with my Mac! Telephone support has been outstanding as well. It is a little pricey right now and I have not had luck using the voice activated system to work. Get the one year MSN deal. It is well worth it.
Recently purchased this product for present for fiance. No problems at all and the unit works wonderfully. Not all features have been tried yet, so the review is for basic performance of navigating. The voice recognition has not been tested and the MSN
The 880 is another excellent Garmin product. I previously had a C550 and enjoy the larger screen. MSNDirect is a great add on although you have to be near a fairly large city to get updates. Voice command is the biggest plus, although at times(very rar
As advertised, this is a great product. One of the things I really like is the ability to find the best price for gas using MSN DIrect. Another, is the ability to give directions to the unit while on the move, using speech recognition. One disappointment
If your looking for a full featured, hands-free operable GPS unit, this is the one to consider. Compared to other units, this Garmin unit far exceeded my requirements. The added MSN features such as searching for the cheapest gas, latest movies, closest
This Garmin is good because it has the speed-limit posted. The MSN option is also really handy, especially if your in a big city with traffic detours. Do you really need all of these options, maybe not, but it is a great tool.
This device is the best I have had to date. I am a Garmin fan and the amount that they have packed into this is amazing. Bluetooth for phone connectivity and handsfree operation, awesome map, vehicle and voice updates, MSN direct receiver for up to date
The Garmin 880 is an excellent driving aide. The graphics and audio features are superb. When positioned on a dash board, the display is easily readable in the day as well as the night. The unit's speech is clear and distinct; and the unit's res
This is probably he best portable GPS out there right now. I previously had a NUVI 660 which was also great, but without MSN Direct ot Voice Recognition. The voice recognition is terrific, and I was amazed at how it could recognize different voices with
The best GPS unit I've ever used. Voice command worked like a charm along with all the other features except one. The Bluetooth function is pretty much worthless, but, I didn't buy it for this feature. Unfortunately; it developed an overheating
I ORDERED THE NUVI 880 GPS,I THOUGH IT WAS COMING FROM AMAZON,BUT IT CAME FROM ELECTRONICA DIRECT. SO IAM VERY HAPPY WITH THE NUVI 880 GPS,BUT I HAVE A PROBLEM, I LOOKED ON AMAZON THE DAY THAT I RECEIVED THE 880 GPS AND I SAW IT FOR $739.00, SO I CALLED E

GArmin 880. Pros: Compact, Easy To Read, Loads maps very fast, Reliable Performance. Primary use: Personal. Use the 880 when traveling out of home area and out of state.
The Garmin Nuvi 880 is an awesome GPS unit. I've tried many in the past, and nothing comes close to the Garmin 880. Voice recognition works flawlessly. I'm definitely going to keep the MSN Direct subscription after the free 3 month grace period.
I'm hooked on Nav systems. I really got it for my RAV4 to replace a NUV 660 which I liked very much. I have (had) built-in Navs on several cars. The latest is a Lexus 460L. The Lexus is reported to have one of the very best Nav systems. It is ver
I have been using the Nuvi 880 GPS for a couple of weeks now, and it is the best Garmin unit to date, and possibly the portable/handheld/car GPS available at this time. The Garmin Nuvi GPS units are probably the easiest to start using out of the box with
This product works great!! sometimes it has trouble when streets are close. My Job is fast paced and the NUVI 880 gets things done when I need it too. If you have the money its worth the investment. Cant wait to try it in Europe sometime.
I bought the Garmin Nuvi 880 directly from Amazon.com and Amazon.com was the seller. I just now got off of the telephone with Garmin and they told me the Nuvi880 was REGISTERED TO SOMEONE ELSE. As I write this the Garmin Representative is finding out t
The Garmin nuvi 880 is excellent. The portability of this item makes it nicer than one built into a vehicle. One of our vehicles has a built in model; this is a better, more up to date unit and can travel with us when we are walking and touring around t
After having used several GPS products Garmin has really outdone themselves on this one. The voice recognition has preformed almost flawlessly. Any faults I can attribute to myself by trying to give too much information when searching for places. The less

I bought this as a gift for my boyfriend and he loves it. It has many features that he loves to use on it like the music player. The speech recognition is OK. We sometimes have to repeat ourselves like 5 times to get what we want, but it works just as goo
I never really thought about buying a GPS for my car. Most of my experience with these have been in rental cars. Those were Magellan systems and they were awsome I thought in strange towns. At the time of purchasing this Garmin unit, I was in yet anothe
I have had my Garmin for 3 wks & love it. It is not as accurate as I'd hoped but has not gotten me lost in areas I don't know. I live in Huntsville & have used it mostly to get to places I know, trying to get there faster, but occasional
Both Amazon and the seller provide a valuable service and both communicated well so your are up to date on your order . My order was delivered on time and came as advertised . Thank you .
Product is more than what I need. The Garmins are user friendly, but this model has too many features to make it practical.
As full time RVers, we have been using navigation systems since their infancy. User friendliness, accuracy, voice commands and an easy to read screen make this unit a must-have. A buggaboo we've run into relates to the voice commands. We have a ver
Love the new unit. MSN Direct is a very nice function at times. Voice recognition accurate and directions are much better than previous units which I have owned. Only downfall is the speaker when using the bluetooth. Very low even at max setting. Even wit
