Review on Garmin 5 Inch Navigator Discontinued Manufacturer by James Townsend

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Contradictory, clumsy and stupid.

I bought this to replace my old Garmin and am very disappointed in this next generation model. Navigation really got WORSE. The device sends you on lanes to save 0.1 miles, which is a waste of time (although the device is set to the fastest time). Garmin has also changed the menu interface, making the device cumbersome and illogical to operate. If you've used Garmin in the past, don't expect this to be a similar experience. The only improvement of the device is the forwarding function, which allows you to search for POIs on your active route. This includes everything from restaurants, recreation areas, gas stations, grocery stores, auto mechanics, and so on. This was a very useful and useful feature but compared to my latest Garmin performance I would not recommend buying this product.

Pros
  • Sturdy finish
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product
