This is an excellent product for the money. Voice clear and lound enough to hear while driving. Bluetooth works like a charm. It's nice to hear the street name spoken from the unit. Overall very satisfied with unit so far.
Easily set up, but did take some time since I'm not so computer literate Great screen. Just watch how you attach to the window. Once you position the holder, it's hard to get it off since it has a bit of tape in addition to the suction. But
Everything and more , My wife travels around the country and it works better than we expected . Great GPS for our needs
Used it for a short time and it ha been very useful. Am thinking about getting this same unit for my other car. I like the traffic alerts.
Very good for the price. Has erverything you may need on a GPS. If youneed more maps it's very easy to download and install them.
Amazon and Garmin have provided me with "everything I expected ..." when I ordered the Garmin 265WT. Service was prompt as promised and the unit has worked perfectly -- the trafic receiver and bluetooth phone connection are everything I had exp
Anyone bothered by the ads are just looking for something to complain about. This is a great unit and the free traffic is terrific... sometimes a little behind, but still great.
This is my third Garmin GPS and each and everyone just gets better. It has done everything I have expected of it and does it well. I especially like the free one time up-date for the maps this time. This is as it should be rather than buying something wit
Great product, works well, as expected. Pros: -Bluetooth connects to phone (works well, too) -Ability to touch and drag the map around the screen to view other map areas -night mode turns the screen darker so it doesn't blind you at night -traffic fe
I love my Garmin 265WT GPS, it exceeds my expectations. The customer support was extremely helpful. I wish I had bought it sooner!
Great product, fantastic features. Don't even bother reading "GPS for Dummies" because it's intuitive right out of the box! This is my sixth Garmin product in less than two years, good stuff!
I'm happy with this purchase. I usually read up on specs and reviews a whole lot before I buy and this is a nice unit. The fm traffic tuner works great except for once and the same with finding addresses. Overall pleased with this model and FREE TRAF
This is extremely easy to use. I have had no problems with it at all and would recommend it to everyone. I love the Street by Street directions, the traffic receiver has worked perfectly and the sound is just fine for me.. and being able to go anywhere at
Garmin nüvi 760 4.3-Inch Widescreen Bluetooth Portable GPS Automobile Navigator I am quite pleased with this product. Easy to use and quite accurate. Doesn't talk too much, just enough. Gives appropriate time before a turn is needed. When yo
I'm having a hard time deciding whether or not this is a 4 or 5 star item. I gave it the benefit of the doubt and rated it 5. I got this GPS for my dad for christmas, and I'm happy to say that this unit has worked great since christmas. It worke
Excellent product and best price on Amazon. Bluetoooth had some issues with intermittent disconnecting, but easily fixed with patch from Garmin site. Really Really easy to use, and accurate, would reccomend to anyone.
Garmin GPS system helped guide our way to Florida, very efficient. Once in awhile it was slow to tell when a turn was coming, but for the most part it was very helpful.
Pros: * Intuitive user interface. * Bright, big screen. * Auto dimming day/night based on time of sunrise/sunset. * Customizable Points of Interest (POI) -- program locations into the system. * SD/SDHC memory card expandable on top of the internal 2
I bought this before going to Oregon to see my Dad and I am so glad I did. I just put the addresses in for the places we needed to go and followed the GPS's instructions. It was wonderful! I paid a little more to get the traffic function, thinking it
This was a replacement for Tom Tom that died, While the Nuvi is not as customizable as the Tom Tom as far as map colors, voices etc, it excells in quicker satellite connection and more intuitive backlighting. The included traffic receiver seems to work bu
Came in perfect condition and have had no problems with it. This is the 3rd one I have purchased for my family.
Well pleased with our Nuvi, having made a recent transition from a Tom Tom One, which developed a battery problem.
Great Gps!! Did a lot of research to find the best price with as many features possible for my budget. Too many to list!! Doesn't have all the bells and whistles but it carries a tune!! Very easy to use!!! Highly recommended!! I spent hours on the co
The Garmin nuvi 265wt has all the features I was looking for...including LIFE TIME traffic information & larger screen. It's the best unit for the money. (I researched it for a while prior to purchase) The new models in the retail stores with the
This thing really works well. Certainly does its job and then some. Don't know how I've lived without a GPS until now!
If you're looking at this GPS, I can tell you I spent a lot of time researching it, you can't go too far wrong with a Garmin -what sold me on this version was the free traffic for life & bluetooth. Otherwise, they are pretty much all the sam
This is our first GPS unit and we have used it for 2 months now in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area. I did a lot of research about different units and functions before buying one and this one has been a great value. The 265WT is one of the newest Garmin units an
This device combines a bluetooth speakerphone and GPS very well into an intuitive and easy to use interface. I have paired this with a Nokia N78 and I can access my contacts along with missed, received and dialed calls lists. As for the GPS side, it is
One of my Best Buys. Does almost everything you want in a Road GPS unit. I convinced a friend in Redding, California, who was going to drive to Laughlan, Nevada then onto my house in Glen Ivy, California, to buy one for his trip. When he arrived, he could
The Garmin nuvi 265T is a perfect compromise between performance and price. It's great! I business travel extensively in the Mid-Atlantic and New England areas, it gets me to my destinations with near-flawless accuracy. After 5 years of previous G
It really "does everything" at a very reasonable price. The real time traffic is a bit off a hype in my opinion. It never really tells you anything you don't already know and it's not terribly accurate re the real traffic conditions ah
This is a very good GPS that sometimes has routing issues. The screen interface, display, speed, and maps all work great. I can't depend on the speed display but generally find it useful. The discrepancies may be due to highway changes that have not
This unit is easy to use and very user friendly. I also bought the sand bag dash mount and the wall plug battery charger. I have had other Garmin GPS models and this one is far easier to use.
I WAS PROMISED AN RADIO RECEIVER WITH THIS GPS BUT IT WAS NOT RECEIVED WITH IT AND TRIED TO FIND A EMAIL ADDRESS FOR AMAZON OR PHONE NUMBER AND THERE IS NONE SO THERE WAS NO ONE TO GET HELP FROM ABOUT RECEIVING HELP WITH THE MISSING ITEMS IN THE ORDER. TH
This is the model to buy. Why? Short & simple: You absolutely must have the TRAFFIC feature. Ignore online reviews that state it is not necessary - because these people most likely live in a city where it is not supported, and they just have not le
Great product! This Garmin gives great directions, reroutes rather quickly, and has nice features such as the wider screen, some traffic info, bluetooth phone hook-up, a "favorites" list and a WHERE AM I? feature. The suction cup attachemnt al
This is a great unit that works well right out of the box. I wish the traffic updates were a little more reliable and consistent, but hey, you get what you paid for. Directions are great. It hasn't failed me yet. It is occasionally slow to link to sa
This is my first GPS. I don't need to go any further than say it is a wondeful product. It exceeded my expectation. I like the cell phone hand's free bluetooth feature best. I'm recommending it to all my friends. If I would to do it ov
We are very happy with this product .. and it was a great value on Amazon!
We just got back from a trip. this was the first one with our NUVI. This thing is awesome. The lifetime traffic updates are great. The bluetooth works awesome. oh yea, the GPS works just perfect too:) I look forward to using or a long time.
We've had the nuvi 265wt for a few weeks and love it! Of course, my daughter has figured out more of the features than I have, but it is great for long trips, recalculates routes if one misses a turn, shows traffic, current speed limits as well as th
I BOUGHT THIS GARMIN 265WT GPS TO USE ON A HONDA GOLDWING MOTORCYCLE. I TRIED TO MOUNT GPS IN SEVERAL DIFFERENT LOCATIONS. FIRST ON THE GAS TANK WHERE THE GOLD WING TAG SETS, ON PLEXEGLASS WINDSHIELD ON THE RIGHT SIDE AND FINELY MOUNYED THE GPS ON THE CEN
I bought this Nuvi to upgrade to bluetooth phone capability...I am in Ca several times a year and it is illegal to use cell phone with your hands. The free traffic receiver was an added bonus. Bluetooth Capability: With one exception the bluetooth phone
This is my first GSP and I'm glad I chose Garmin. I used few garmins and some other brands. And that was the reason why I chose it. This model is great. You really need that 4.3 inch screen for few extra dollars. One thing that just exceeded my expec
Purchased it last night and used it for first time today. Used to be a 760 user and was lokking for 765t for lane assistance features and lifetime traffic service. Then saw the review of 265t and decided to go for it. From 760, there are couple of featu
I wasn't sure which GPS I needed, so I called Amazon's tech sales support department. I told the tech what features I wanted, and without hesitation he recommended this Garmin nuvi 265WT. I took it on a trip to Arizona, and it was terrific. T
Has proven very helpful when we travel to different cities and has even helped out with last minute detours. Glad we got it.
An effective GPS that provides directions that includes identfying the street and highway names. The voice and screen directions are clear and easy to follow.
After a lot of research I picked this product for both the quality of Garmin products and the features this product offered. I had a Cobra GPS unit before, and the difference was like eating at a 1 star restaurant and then eating at a 5 star restaurant. T
I've used it for a few weeks now. It's better than the built-in Nav system in my car. The directions have been spot on! The screen is easy to read. The unit is very intuitive. Plus free lifetime traffic. It's a combination that's
