Garmin Nuvi 2699 review
You'll love the reliability, but there are infuriations too
Intuitive controls ; Smart app integration ; Bluetooth phone link
Unreliable traffic information ; Limited voice control ; Touch counter-intuitively required while driving
A sturdy, full function machine that has the premium product whiff and a raft of crowd pleasing functions. Imperfect traffic alerts and voice control frustrate, but this still easily outperforms any smartphone-and-app combos as a navigator. The Garmin...

Garmin nüvi Prestige review: Garmin nüvi Prestige
Editors' note: Garmin's Nuvi 3490 LMT features an interface that is similar to that of the recently reviewed Garmin Nuvi 2495 LMT and hardware that is similar to the Nuvi 3790T. Where applicable, portions of each of those reviews have been used in this...
The Garmin Nuvi 3490 LMT features an improved interface, snappy performance, and a svelte form factor. Garmin's truly hands-free voice command system is one of the best in the portable navigation business. Lifetime map updates and 3D Traffic Digital...
Bluetooth connection doesn't sync with the phone's address book. At $400, this is a very pricey PND.
The Garmin Nuvi 3490 LMT packs every trick in Garmin's book into an ultra-thin chassis, but the high MSRP will deter some.

The Bluetooth connection doesn't sync with a phone's address book. Slow map rendering hinders overall performance.
With its improved interface, the Garmin Nuvi 2495LMT (Advanced Series) is as easy to use as earlier models, while offering a good blend of advanced features at a reasonable price.

Garmin nüvi 1300LM
Product not yet reviewed by PCMag editors.
As a rule, Garmin devices also offer robust point-of-interest (POI) search, including good category breakdowns, as well as searches that update in real time as you drive, complete with compass directions. We didn't review the nüvi 1300LM specifically,...

Garmin Nuvi 700
The Garmin Nuvi 760 portable navigation system features text-to-speech functionality and useful location features that help you find nearby services. The system also has a wide screen, a built-in transmitter, and other travel tools. Bluetooth...
The Nuvi 760 was occasionally sluggish to alert us to turns and to calculate routes. It's also a bit pricey.
The Garmin Nuvi 760 delivers beautifully on almost every front, but the portable navigation system hits a speed bump with its sluggish performance.

Garmin Nuvi 310
This all-in-one GPS navigator, translator, entertainer and tour guide could have been very good, but lead us down a few too many long and winding roads.
Simple. Quick route calculation. Travel kit.
Poor route choice. Slow commands. Expensive.
A feature packed portable GPS device that's ideal for travelling, but is let down by poor route calculations and very high price.
