Our Comment
This is Garmin's high end-premium navigation device with an awarding winning design and one of the best user interfaces in the business.
There are some excellent features including the new magnetic car mount that grabs strongly to hold the device in place but also lets go easily when
you want to take the unit with you.
Secondly, the 5", 800x400 pixel, capactive display is gorgeous. It is multi-touch for pinch and zoom, with very crisp and clear imagery.
Thirdly, this Garmin is much more responsive to previous models, the lag between where you are and where the device thinks you are is reduced so
the whole navigation experience is substantially improved (no more missing those important turns). Garmin have also gone along way to improve
the voice directions by making them more converstaional and the active lane guidance has also been improved to make it easier for you
to navigate through complex junctions.
Overall this is a super device and the best I have used by a long-way. Yes, it does come with a premium price, but it will give you years of quality navigation
from a very slick package.
