Review on ๐Ÿ—บ๏ธ Garmin Nuvi 205W - 4.3-Inch Portable GPS Navigator with Widescreen by Juan Grayson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Wonderful! for starters

This is my first GPS. I have to say that I was hesitant to take it because of the bad reviews, but I think I got lucky. My GPS is very accurate for the Los Angeles area where I do most of my travels. The GPS doesn't speak street names, but will show you the name on screen and clearly display the turn arrow and distance to the next turn in miles and even feet. It calculates the approximate time of arrival at the destination (excluding traffic jams, which this model does not provide). It also shows your speed with incredible accuracy, kilometers traveled, average mileage per trip and even top speed on major roads and motorways. You can enter addresses, intersections or points of interest, e.g. B. near gas stations, restaurants, shops, etc. This is a very fast satellite detection and recalculation of alternative routes. Again, here is my experience with the Los Angeles area. I see a lot of the bad reviews from the eastern, central or rural US. And their reviews are valid based on their experience with this particular model. But now that I've tried the base model and have had successful experiences with the Garmin brand for now, I'll probably stick with the brand and try the more advanced models if my needs call for it. Hi! I also got it at a great price from Revain. I don't think you have much to lose by trying this particular model that I've had good experiences with. then again it is always your choice. much luck!
