Digital camera reviews of Garmin nüvi 670 4.3-Inch Bluetooth Portable GPS Navigator
Digital camera Review: Awful product - screen has lost touch ability after 10 uses!
Summary: 1 Stars
We paid $470 for this product just over two years ago. We don't have a car so have used it perhaps 3 times a year when on vacation in the US or Europe. On a recent road trip we discovered that only the bottom right of the screen now acknowledges you touching it and the only function it has is to lock or unlock the screen. Seemed great when we got it but we would have expected it to last longer.Digital camera Review: BE WARE- the POI are not correct!!!!!
Summary: 4 Stars
I just got my 670 couple days ago and had used it but 2, 3 times. One of the perks of having this i thought, was so that i don't have to search for the addresses of museums, because the handy "Point of Interest" that comes preloaded in the unit. Was i wrong! After trusting it fully i end up somewhere in the ghetto where you would never want to venture in Los Angeles. I was lucky that it was still daytime, or else i would be very scared. after double checking the address i found the POI had a wrong zip code, and therefore leaded us astray. But how hard could it be to correct this error if the manufacturer do some double checking?! So from now on i still have to check the addresses of POIs on the computer to make sure they are right, which renders this feature semi-useless.
Otherwise it's being an Okay GPS unit in my book.

Digital camera Review: Best GPS for the money
Summary: 5 Stars
Bought this GPS as an "open box special" from Amazon. While it didn't ship with any manuals (a bit disappointed), its user interface is rather intuitive. Great features - everything you want in a GPS. I even used it recently while driving in the UK and it worked perfectly.
My only issue with the device is that the bluetooth doesn't support my phone, a Blackberry 8310. Bluetooth capability is one of the reasons I bought the phone. So, I'll wait patiently while Garmin resolves this - however, you need to check the compatibility list on their website before purchasing.
Digital camera Review: Better than Navman
Summary: 5 Stars
I selected this Garmin nuvi 670 primarily because it comes with maps of North America, Europe and Australia which is a great feature when you travel a lot. I also wanted a wide screen, 4.3". This GPS is very simple to understand and to operate, it offers large and clear instructions and, so far, the map data seems very accurate. A good choice at a reasonable price.Digital camera Review: Better use a map
Summary: 1 Stars
We took the GPS to Germany and Italy and we ended up buying a map. the GPS had NO reception 90% of the time and one of the roads it suggested taking (after we set it on fastest way) once it did work ended up taking 1 hour longer than the rout we found on the map. Over all it was a very BAD experience especially since this is one of the most expensive ones on the market. Maybe it works better in the US.
