I was looking for a GPS with voice commands, and lifetime maps and traffic to replace a Nuvi 2595 whose traffic receiver stopped working. This unit functions quite well, but only shows traffic alerts, rather than the older unit's Green, Yellow, and Red icons to indicate whether traffic is "normal," "slow," or "very slow." The microphone also requires you to speak quite loudly, or repeat your requests, but the GPS eventually responds. You can also use Blu-tooth to connect with your smartphone for hands free phone use, and if you have a data plan, you can use Apps to get weather, text messages, and other messages displayed on the GPS screen. It also uses wi-fi for map and software updates, which enables you to get them if you have wi-fi, even without a computer and Garmin Express.

This Refurbished Garmin GPS unit looks and works just like NEW. I replaced a cheaper 7-inch GPS with this one since mine had poorer accuracy and was Glitchy at times with popup Error messages about a missing file that made no sense. This one cost twice the price but is well worth the investment. It has a sharper display, good features and is very reliable. Only drawback is that my cheaper unit had any more features, apps, etc that I have lost with this one. Still trying to learn how to use all the features but no real Good Instructions to find out if I can add Music and Picture files to it as well as possibly some addon APPS. Time will tell but it is great for Navigation!

This is my third Garmin GPS unit. Two are different models of the Drivesmart and the other is built into a Kenwood Stereo/NAV system installed in one of my cars. I like the interfact and how basically intuitive it is. I bought this one because my older one did not support the wireless rear view camera and I didn't want to hassle with wiring from the rear of my truck to the head on my dash. I like the voice command feature which allows me to tell the unit to select certain preplammed destinations so I can drive hands free.

It's amazing The traffic shows me every jam and navigates me around them very well if i want. The delay times are very accurate it's very precise and sees evey little thing every where i go. All the features and map is nice easy to read. The sun has no effect on the screen whatsoever while it washes out my other navigators screen completely. I always see it bright and clear all day. I like the night screen also. It will pay for itself in a few weeks. Get it.
