Garmin Nuvi 260W - The 680 on a budget.

Date of Review:  Jul 5, 2008
The Bottom Line: The Garmin 260W is a great GPS for those on the market for an inexpensive and reliable GPS receiver that offers a decent amount of features.
Review: I have a few Garmin's in my GPS arsenal, all of which have proved to be reliable, accurate, and for the most part priced competitively. I chose the Nuvi 260W due to its high feature to price ratio and the fact that this particular model can now be...

Proof that Garmin doesn't always make the best GPS.

Date of Review:  Jan 11, 2009
The Bottom Line:

While Garmin usually does a wonderful job with their GPS units, the 760 is the exception.

Review: A well-designed GPS can make driving in an unfamiliar area less stressful, even enjoyable. Conversely, a poorly designed GPS can be completely counterproductive: leaving a traveler many miles off course or worse: completely lost. With this being the...

The Garmin Nuvi 260 is an excellent GPS device
4/5 stars
I Would give the Garmin Nuvi 260 a 8 out of 10. It has an amazing 3.5 inch LCD screen and gives you step by step directions to well basically anywhere. The only downfall of this product is to receive the traffic warning device you need to pay a ridiculous price, and it is not even the best use of the traffic projection. That is the only flaw i see in this product and highly recommend buying the Garmin Nuvi 260, it has saved me a few times when i have gotten lost. Pros: It is Very accurate with directions, It is very light, Very bright LCD screen Cons: Cost of the traffic warning finder is horrible

Upgraded Version in Nuvi Navigation System- Learn more about the upgrades.
5/5 stars
This system is a couple dollars more than the Nuvi 200 that I previously reviewed on Expo TV, but with every dollar spent... Garmin is included a nice bundle of new features. The text to speech turn by turn is an amazing thing because it practically always pronounces the street name completely accurately... The fact that this little system is so inexpensive in relation to a factory navigation system in a car... I would never pay to have a this feature ever again... Garmin makes an amazing product and I have seen enough of them first hand to know they are built to last and are a durable product. A great gift and its completely portable, every household should have one...Think about the money you'll save just taking the most direct route, avoid getting lost, and drive with confidence on the road... Pros: Good brand, text to speech feature Cons: nothing to change
