3.0 out of 5 stars
cant say i have not had problems,
November 18, 2009

By bcom USA See all my reviews

I bought a refurbished nuvi 750 about 9 months ago and it still does work as of todaysort of.The gps does get me where i have to go but on occasion in not the best route.Sometimes this thing makes me take routes that seem to be longer in my opinion.It will take me to a destination just to take me a different way on the way home.Dont really understand that.I have it set to the fastest time and it has taken me a totally different path on the way home.If the way home is the fastest route,then why isnt the path there the same way??I have also found that if your driving 65mph down the highway,the gps does not warn you fast enough when you have to turn.Using the gps on 3d mode which majority of people do,i found to be inaccurate with the pictures.My destination will be 1/4 mile earlier than projected or 1/4 mile farther down the road.Using it in 2d mode is a bit more correct for visual purposes.

I do enjoy the mp3 player on this unit,however on occasion the music really skipsyes i said skips.Even the voice on the gps unit will skip quite frequently making it impossible to understand what “Jack”Garmins English male voice is talking about.The gps will also reset itself back to the “default” setting of no voice at all which kinda makes me think that “Jack” went to sleep!!I have been having problems with the gps freezing up from time to time particularly when 1st turned on when the maps are loading.I have my gps set to where i have to punch in a security code before it may be used but most of the time,the gps will work without having to type in the code.What kind of security is that??The power cord they sent me i also think is defective.Sometimes you really have to wiggle it around in the 12v power outlet to get it to work.The suction cup mount on this thing doesnt work well in hot weather.After the gps sitted in the sun,the suction cup will lose suction and the gps will fall which happened to me over 20 times which cant be good for the gps.This is most likely common for must suction mounts.

conclusion this gps does get me where i have to go but with many problems.If it werent for the mp3 player on this unit i could bought another brand for all the small little problems i have had with this thing.I will be returning it to Garmin here soon before the warranty runs out,since i cant stand listening to “Jack” trying to give me directions with a stuttering problem and since the security doesnt really work on it anyway.Plus with the other small problems ive had.Maybe i should bought new instead of refurbished?!!?

REAL NAME
  

It did not warn me early enough , and I wish it has a repeat feature button. on occasion it speaks too fast or strange pronounciation of path number etc.. Somtimes do recalculation many time don’t. This leads me to run around and wastes 15 minutes time and gas. It should insist more on U turn if it is possible. The display should let me know my speed, how many miles to destination . in general , it does its job well . It saves me many of time. Only thing I have to know is the addresses. After that, garmin takes care of the rest.
