Not having had a GPS before, I am unable to compare this to another unit. However, I have used an HP Travel Companion a few times so I was familiar with how GPSs worked in general prior to purchasing this unit.

Cons: Expensive, heavy glare, low battery life

The Bottom Line: I recommend this unit based on its consistent quality performance and rugged durability.

Review: The Garmin NUVI 750 is not one of the newest units offered by the GPS-market leader. I have it piano black although, I believe, it comes in other colors as well. Overall, it's a solid performer but it does have its drawbacks.

In the past...

The Bottom Line: To me this is the best bang for the buck for baby boomers.

Review: If you're interested in the Garmin Nuvi 750 than you've probably already read some basic reviews and ad-hype. My review is just a "real world" experience with the thing.

Pros: Easy to use! Nice big screen size, good layout, easy to understand speech. Route optimization.

Cons: Can't turn off display to save battery. Short battery life, 3 hours in my experience.

The Bottom Line: Best choice GPS for seniors and those who want something easy. Nicely laid out display, easy to read, clear speech.

Review: The only difference that I could see between the Garmin Nuvi 760 and the 750 is that the 750 lacks bluetooth capabilities. At the time I bought, a week ago, the difference was about $100.

I am a SENIOR and my husband had surgery and will...

Pros: TONS of features! Easy to use.

Cons: Had a problem with the cord.

The Bottom Line: I would definitely buy this unit again. Easy to use and tons of features.

Review: I Love my Garmin nuvi 750. This unit works very well. It has a 4.3" widescreen. You can choose from 2D or 3D maps and can choose the icon that represents your vehicle, such as an arrow or choice of numerous vehicles (and can download even more icons...
