slim form factor
Garmin's nA vis pack top of the line features into a slim form factor.
Wider screen lets you see more of what's around. Compare these actual size views of a 3-inch (diagonal) screen
3-inch screen


and a 4.3-inch diagonal widescreen
4.3-inch screen

New Features -- Where Am I? Where's My Car?
The nA vi 700 series is the first to answer two common questions: "Where am I?" and "Where’s my car?"

At any time, with a single tap of the screen, drivers can display their exact latitude and longitude coordinates, the nearest address and intersection, and the closest hospitals, police stations and gas stations. And to help drivers find their car in an unfamiliar spot or vast parking lot, all nA vi 700s automatically mark the position in which they were last removed from the mount.

New Features -- Multi-Destination Routing
This lets you enter several spots into the device (day care - supermarket-cleaners - office - day care, for example) and it will plot the fastest route. And once you've found the best router, the "Route Planning" feature lets you save up to 10 different routes, Garmin touts the feature for providing, "the most efficient route for errands, deliveries and sales calls." The feature also makes this an instant essential accessory for anyone who shops garage sales (you know what we're talking about).

A trip log provides an electronic bread crumb trail of up to 10,000 points, so you can see where you've been on the map.

See Better, See More
The super-bright, 4.3-inch (diagonal) touchscreen display gives is anti-glare for ease of viewing during the day and automatically changes its color profile for easy viewing at night or in dim light. It offers 2d or 3D perspective views.

The widescreen format gives you 70% more actual screen area than a 3.5-inch screen. Primarily this translates into a better view of the area through which you are driving. This is especially useful in showing you what parks, restaurants, ATM, gas stations, etc. are nearby, or in letting you know whether a detour is a good idea. Also, the device itself is larger, meaning controls on the screen are more widely spaced and somewhat easier to push.

First Rate Map Data
All nA vi 700s come preloaded with highly detailed City Navigator NT road maps for the entire United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico. This map database features nearly six million points of interest (POIs), including hotels, restaurants, gas stations, ATMs, and attractions. Garmin gets its map data from NAVTEQ, a world leader in premium-quality mapping.

Important note about map updates: Due to our high volume of sales, almost every Garmin portable GPS navigator sold by Amazon.com will come with the most recent map version. If you ever do need a map update, you can purchase one from Amazon.com at our Garmin Store.

Hands-Free Calling
In more and more places, it is becoming illegal to use cell phones while driving without a hands-free kit. WIth Bluetooth capability, microphone and speaker, you can match your nA vi to any bluetooth-capable phone to make hands-free mobile phone calls. Simply dial the phone number with the nA vi's touch screen keypad to make a call on a compatible phone. To answer an incoming call, just tap the screen and speak into the built-in microphone. Making and taking calls on the road has never been easier, or safer. In addition, Garmin makes it a breeze to look-up and dial numbers from your personalized phone book or even tap into your cell phone's call history log.

Integrated FM Traffic Receiver
TMC traffic service coverage map
Steer clear of traffic with an integrated FM traffic receiver designed to receive alerts from TMC Clear Channel about traffic tie-ups and road construction that might lie ahead on your route. All you have to do is simply touch the screen to view traffic details and you'll be ready to detour around any problem area. And if you end up missing a turn, or you're forced into a detour that is not relayed through the traffic receiver, the nA vi's sophisticated automatic routing will get you back on track in no time.

In most areas, TMC Clear Channel traffic broadcasts are continuous a there's no waiting for scheduled traffic news updates or random alerts. Because traffic broadcasts are received via a "silent" FM data channel, you can still listen to music or news programming on your car radio without interference from incoming FM traffic data transmissions.

A 3-month subscription to TMC Clear Channel's Total Traffic Network is included with purchase of this device. For more information on subscription fees, coverage in individual cities, and traffic data networks in the United Kingdom and Europe, check the Garmin website.


Garmin Lock

Garmin's patent pending theft prevention system that disables the unit from performing any functions until the user types in a specific 4-digit PIN or takes the unit to a predetermined secure location

Easy To Use Interface
Garmin's interface is a key to their success and one of the things that makes their devices such a pleasure to use. Simple controls and sub-screens make it easy to enter or search for destinations and get data about your trip.

Garmin's own navigation is easy to use

5 out of 5 stars Not sure what all everyone is fusing about   December 5, 2008
Rebecca D. Holland (Atlanta, GA)
I'm a professional photographer that travels alot and I bought the 760 last weekend and I have been using it for about a week. I love this product and I haven't had any problems. It only takes me about 30 seconds to plug in an address and I'm on my way. The blue tooth feature works great and the I don't have any sound issues like the others have complained of. The FM reciever is also wonderful and the unit gets me around high traffic areas in Atlanta. The only thing I have not tried is the sound through the speakers in my car. Overall this unit is great and I couldn't ask for more from this divice.

I'm fairly new to the GPS world and I was VERY overwhelmed trying to pick the best unit for me because everyone made the reviews so complicated. The bottom line is this product gets the job done --- I love it.

Hope this review helps us "simple minded" people.



3 out of 5 stars Bluetooth Compatibility Issues   December 3, 2008

I just received my Garmin 760. I wish to point out that I've owned several navigation units including Garmin nuvi 200, Navigon 2100, Tom Tom one and a couple of Magellan basic units. I was very much looking forward to this unit after all the hype and the awesome reviews on the net. I couldn't wait to pair the 760 with my LG Voyager. What a disappointment!
After trying different things for well over an hour I decided to call Verizon who in turn put me in contact with LG. The LG rep put me on hold for a couple of minutes and then came back on the line to let me know that the only two phones they carry which are compatible with the 760 are the 8600 and the 9400.
after I hung up with him I decided to try my wife's newly acquired Blackberry Storm. Guess What? IT WORKS JUST FINE! Here is a phone that came out last week and it hooked right up. The Voyager has been around for a year and does not work with the 760. Please note, I did upgrade the firmware prior to attempting to pair the phones. My advice... Check your phones compatibility with the manufacturer to avoid any disappointment.I haven't yet decided if it's worth it to me to keep the 760 and buy another compatible phone or hope that garmin or LG may put out another firmware miracle to correct this problem? Maybe I'll just give the Garmin to my wife... Yeah, right!

Just got it and have found it to save me time and gas. I travel many midwestern & southern states and find it sometimes takes me on different routes than I'm used to. All in all it has saved me time and gas money.
For the price an excellent purchase. I like the voice calling out the streets so I can concentrate on the road.



5 out of 5 stars Excellent Deal, Excellent Quality, & Superfast Delivery   November 29, 2008

1 out of 2 found this review helpful

I ordered nuvi 760 this Tuesday, and got it on Thursday. After receiving the unit, I just could not wait to try it on my trip to Slugger Museum and Louisville Zoo, the two places we are completely unfamiliar with and had never been to. The GPS led us to our destinations and did its job beautifully. I also found that this unit is made in Taiwan, and to my knowledge, products made in Taiwan are always high quality guaranteed, and this unit is absolutely no exception.

Another big plus is the interface is really user-friendly, and even my 7-year-old son can operate it, not to mention his fourth-grade brother. The points of interest installed in this unit are also amazing. And even in very remote areas, it still offers tons of places for lodging, restaurants, and attractions, and more and more. This saves me a lot of time from researching tour books and maps. How incredible is that! I highly recommend this unit to those families who love to travel and explore new places.

Stepped up from a NUVI 360. Wider screen is very nice. Other features are about the same. The one thing that bothers me (and I've contacted Garmin, who said that's the way it is), is that if you have found a POI and you want to make a Waypoint of it and dump it into the unit, it will NOT allow you to import the Comment. (phone number, address, state, zip) to your Favorites.

In other words, you can only import the name of the Waypoint...
Then... you can only add the phone number in the unit's Favorites, no address, state, zip, suite #, etc...

Paying more money for a unit should not have the developers subtract a nice feature that was in a less expensive unit, a feature to let you customize the way the Waypoint in your Favorites reads. Otherwise, I like the unit and will stick with the English, instead of the English Emily TTS. I found the TTS voices are not as loud and are distorted and not as clear at high volumes.

I returned the new Navigon 7200T. I feel it was a lot of hype and not as many useful features as Garmin...
