I am very satisfied with this product. It does everthing I expected it to do.
Compact easy to carry. Very easy to use,quick response to Streets and locations. But, most of all the price was very reasonable.
This is my first GPS so I don't have anything to compare it with. This model is discontinued and that's why I chose it. The price was right with a large number of features. It speaks perfect English and can transmit to my car radio with great cl
This Garmin is great to have. Has many features that we are still discovering. Like to use it to find a gas station when in an unfamiliar area or on vacation. Good for finding stores without changing your original destination. Gives speed limits, etc.
This is my second Nuvi GPS. I have had it less than 2 weeks. It preforms beautifully and gives me information I didn't have on my 350. Looking forward to using the traffic information.
if you are looking into buying any gps this is the way to go i have absolutely no problems with mine. i am in the military and for us good equipment is a must. If you want the best out there and dont want to spend a lot here it is the garmin nuvi. dont tr
I have 2 Mercedes navigation systems, and this Garmin is better and easier to use. It's price is many hundred dollars less than competitors.
I love the Garmin Nuvi 780 GPS. This GPS is great and so far the maps have been spot on. My only complaint would be with MSN Direct. Don't get me wrong this is cool and will be woth the money. The stock tracking program only has 900 stocks that i
I have bought several of these for the family. A loaded unit with Bluetooth and MSNDirect for a bargain price ~$240 since they have been replaced by the 785T.
Good, micresoft option is something wrong, may only be used for a couple days then lost connection, can not be used for airline check.
This is an excellent GPS device. It is easily viewed when on the lower left of the dashboard (CA residents). I preferred the bean bag attachment so that the suction cup marks would not show on the windshield. It is not easy to install. The Quick Start
Excellent easy to use GPS with good size screen with clear picture in colour. Not as easy to use as built in GPS, but adequate substitute for the money.
The Best The Best Its The Best GPS yet!I have owned 9 gps devices by different manufactories and this has them all beat.
HI I PURCHASED Garmin nüvi 780 4.3-Inch Widescreen Bluetooth Portable GPS Navigator,I HAD IT ABOUT 1 MONTH, THIS UNIT IS AWESOME, I LOVE ALL THE FEATURES, I SHOPPED AROUND FOR A LONG TIME,AND AMAZON HAS THE BEST PRICE AND GOOD SERVICE,I LIKE THE FREE
This is my second GPS system I have owned. I replaced a Garmin C340 with the Nuvi 780. The 780 is absolutely awesome. The Bluetooth works good. I wouldn't go as far as saying great. The volume needs to be turned down or the caller on the other end ge
We bought this as our second Garmin Nuvi 780 because we loved the first one so much. I did not think I needed a GPS unit and thought it was a waste of money. Boy was I wrong. This unit is so helpful, not only with directions but also finding food while
I recently purchased this GPS for my wife who has been very reluctant to embrace the technology. After giving her a short tutorial and a drive around the block I set her off to her own devices. When see returned from a recent day of Doctors appointments,
This is so cool and it was the best price anywhere. fast shipping (which I like) I like this style of gps.
I recently purchased the Nuvi 780, and love it! Unlike some others here, I find that it locates satellites and shows my location very quickly (within a few seconds of booting up). There is a major street in my area that is about 8 months old and wasn
This Garmin 780 GPS is magic. I investigated the navigation products for months before I purchased, and I'm glad I settled on this baby. What can I say in a nutshell...It works. The thing truly amazes me with features beyond map navigation. This mach
I HAVE STUDIED ALL THE REST AND THIS IS THE VERY BEST! WHAT MORE COULD YOU WANT IN A GPS. HAS MORE FEATURES THAN ANY OTHER MODEL AND HAS THE BEST PRICE. MSN FOR 129.00 LIFETIME ACCESS IS A STEAL. MANY MSN TOOLS TO USE! WAS WORTH WAITING FOR PRICE DROP FRO
easy to use, intuitive menu, works as described, nothing negative that i found in the operation. usual garmin quality and ruggedness.
This is a very nice product at a fair price. The real bonus is the accurate traffic and gas station pricing that is part of the MSN direct bundle. One thing to remember is that this model will not update to the latest configuration of MSN direct, which is
My husband bought this product for me for Christmas and it is WONDERFUL> Very easy to use and has made driving so much more fun for me.
I shopped for a long time compared between most of the GPS available. I give it as a gift and the response was THANK YOU FOR THE BEST GIFT Ever. IT works great very fast. You can plan your rout. You can do many things with it. Its a great deal too. It has
I've had this for a little over two weeks and I haven't found anything to complain about. Great directions, only rarely is it off by a few meters, very nice GPS, would highly recommend the MSN direct service as well (covers everything from traff

What's great about it: Easy to use and clear bluetooth reception What's not so great: FM power on battery is dismal "I have owned this unit (Garmin nüvi 780) for a couple of days and have managed to test just about every feature. For t
I have been playing with my 780 for a couple of days and am amazed at how easy and intuitive it is to use. Bluetooth connectivity works well and not have time to add some pictures and songs to the unit, but will try that at a latter time. Garmin's u
This item has worked EXACTLY as described and better. This unit picks up satelites even while I am in most buildings. I have not lost signal unless in a metal building without windows. I Highly recommend this product. It is very nice to compare fuel pr
Very good product. Easy to use. You may be able to purchase a cheaper model if you can not get the MSN Direct in your area. It is only available in the huge cities right now. I live in north west Illinois and it is only available in Chicago, Milwaukee
I won't talk about specs, they are listed here. My use of this GPS has been while driving in the Mid-Atlantic states in a 2008 Honda Civic. I have had it for several months and enjoy it's ease of use. It just works well! I like the large 4&quo
I love my new Garmin Nuvi 780 ... it is very easy to use ... I just took it on a trip to Dallas with my family and we all loved how we could just go anywhere on the spur of the moment .. checked movie times .. checked restaurants. it was great. I use it
We are very pleased with the Nuvi 780. We just took a trip in the car for 2000 miles and it worked great. It did everything we expedited and more. We are very pleased with Garmin.
This is my first automobile GPS, and I did a lot of research before settling on the Garmin 780. I live in the Washington DC Metro area, so all of the extra features work here. Upon its arrival, I downloaded and installed the latest Garmin WebUpdater v.2.4
In the past I'd print out maps and directions from mapping programs to find my way to new places. In the last year, those directions failed me twice, once when I was try to get to a critical business meeting. That convinced me. After a lot of rese
LOVE IT. Even my wife loves it. This is porbably the first electronic gadget I've ever bought where my wife wants to use it more. Very easy to use. It only locked up a few times because I was zooming in/out too fast as it was navigating. perhaps if I
This is a great product, competitively priced through Amazon, probably too expensive if you pay full retail. The bluetooth with my Blackberry didn't work properly, but after a series of emails with their tech support people I downloaded and installe
JUST THE BEST ON THE MARKET. EASY TO USE LOTS AND LOTS OF INFO TO GET YOU TO WHERE YOU ARE GOING. EASY TO SEE ,
The GPS Garmin Nuvi 780 is an amazing device. Offers great traffic routes, easy to operate, good battery power and a very reliable holder when placed on a flat surface (such as a window). The only downside is the MNS Direct Network feature. During my rese
I drive a lot for work; upwards of 20,000 yearly. almost all in the northeast, MD, PA and NY. I used to print directions off Mapquest and/or use my Blackeberry but..... that was a pain. My Nuvi worked perfectly out of the box. It is amazing how well it wo
Hands down this is the best GPS you can get with all the major important features. Here are things you might not know about this GPS: 1. The mp3 player has an auto music cue feature. This means that if you powered off the gps, the music stops but will re
My husband used his garmin on a cross country trip. He loved it. The msn direct connection kept him in the loop about everything including hotels and gas prices along the way. It was very user friendly. I would recommend to anyone.
I never ceased to be amazed with Hi-tech gadgets. I am a little surprised because living in Eastern North Carolina leaves a lot to be desired when it comes to consistent signal coverage for anything that communicates. As for MSN Direct's traffic upda
Excellent! Is all I can say! Easy to use & very accurate. I have lost my way several times, and the Garmin has taken me right to my destination with no problem. I am so glad I bought it!
This is a very good GPS with very nice features. Like said on other reviews the only thing missing is better traffic alert which hopefully will come with time. I was one of those that didn't saw the use for a GPS, until my wife wanted one and my opin
I am very happy with this GPS system, very easy to use, excellent value
Excellent product. We now have 2 of this model and 3 of the 760 model in our family of 5. Everyone loves their Garmin and have no clue what they did before they had it. Our kids use it in their work--traveling all over the county. My wife and I especi
With The Garmin Nuvi I'm more confident about 'gett'in there' in time, using less 'gett'in there' effort, fussing with maps and sometimes confusing personal directions. The friendly voice can even keep you company on t
