Customer Review: Garmen 880 Nuvi GPS
Summary: 5 Stars
I received my Garmin Nuvi 880 just before heading up North to Maine for a Vacation. It arrived early. The "extra" charger that I thought I might need did not fit the product which requires a special charger to get MSN so be careful---not the sellers fault--I thought maybe the seller would short change the order and leave out critical parts whcih was not the case. The unit came complete with special charger, mounts and instructions.
I love the unit but most of all having dealt with Garmin in the past, I know they they are very customer oriented and was shown that agin on a question regarding the remote which they sent out a backup just in case. I had had a Tom Tom just prior and their customer service was terrible.
Very satisfied with the product just concerned that right after I bought it it became "obsolete" and they stopped making that model even though consumers gave it the highest grade.
Customer Review: cool

So far I have enjoyed this product. It has proven to be very usful in areas that I do not know. My wife enjoys the voice recognition so I can still concentrate on the road and not pushing buttons on the Gps
The bluetooth works great. When the phone rings even if its not easily reachable while driving the nuvi tells me who it is and I can answer it witht the push of a button.
The FM transmitter works good in my area there aren't a lot of radio stations so it is easy to find a good static station
Only real problem so far is when routing if I dont go the way it wants me to go then it reroutes, but the reroute a lot of times is just do a u turn and go the other way. so I hit the detour button and it tells me to do a u-turn a mile down the road instead of finding a different road. But that may just be a setting issue with how I have it set to route
Overall great product
Customer Review: This is a GREAT GPS

I've had a Garmin 660 that I have loved for the past couple of years so decided to give my spouse the latest & greatest for Christmas this year. We drove across country using this newer model & we couldn't be happier! Garmin has improved on several items from previous versions, such as the volume controls--now you can select which part you want muted, such as voice commands, but keep the bluetooth and entertainment (ie: audiobooks, MP3) at desired levels. There are also several other features that have been improved & they are all quite handy. The only complaint I would have on the logic of the device is some of the routing information--if I am on a specific route & I select the weather or restaurant feature, it would be nice if it gave you an option to just get the information that is in line with the specific route. If that is my only complaint, then you know it is a good device! I highly recommend it.Customer Review: NUVI 880 BOUGHT FROM AMAZON

I bought the Garmin Nuvi 880 directly from Amazon.com and Amazon.com was the seller. I just now got off of the telephone with Garmin and they told me the Nuvi880 was REGISTERED TO SOMEONE ELSE. As I write this the Garmin Representative is finding out the serial number and who it is registered to in order to TRY AND GIVE ME A WARRANTY. I would like for Amazon.com to respond because I now see where the NUVI is offered by another. I feel that Amazon has my registration number so just be careful to ask this question when purchasing from Amazon. I have never had this problem before. I paid more because Amazon.com was the SELLER...
The 880 is amazing, shows highway speed limits and your speed and even shows where the security cameras are , we don't speed but it is interesting to watch the unit and it is very accurate with voice command and it will answer your cell phone for you while driving...
Customer Review: Awesome!

The Garmin nuvi 880 is excellent. The portability of this item makes it nicer than one built into a vehicle. One of our vehicles has a built in model; this is a better, more up to date unit and can travel with us when we are walking and touring around town. Amazon offered speedy delivery and a fair price. Other suppliers said they could sell it cheaper; the only problem was they didn't have it in stock. I had delivery of the item in 2 days and it was traveling across country in another two. The detour feature saved me many hours of sitting, stopped in traffic and had me traveling a beautiful, scenic route across Ohio. To add to the scenery, I lost no travel time. The blu-tooth feature worked, but the clarity of voice on the other end was not good. I would highly recommend the Garmin nuvi 880 unit to anyone looking for a top of the line unit.
