Great Value Garmin Auto GPS Units
The Garmin nuvi 205W offers a wide 4.3-inch widescreen and you can even read the device in direct sunlight with the antiglare screen. The sleek, thin design of the 205W model makes it trouble-free to take it along wherever you go, even while exploring on foot as the battery will run for up to four hours without power. With HotFix capabilities, otherwise known as satellite ephemeris data prediction, the Garmin GPS is able to quickly settle on your exact location by locking into three different satellites, and also bear in mind your position for the next time you turn the device on. This helps to get rid of time wasted on waiting for a satellite fix, enabling you to get moving and on the road.
The Garmin nuvi 255W features a newly redesigned interface that not only offers more visible information but is also simple to use. The Text-to-Speech (TTS) feature reads out street names and upcoming exits, instead of the generic, “turn left in 500 feet.” It also has a 4.3 inch antiglare screen that present 70% more of the road around you. Because the 255W has a built-in antenna as opposed to the flip-up type, it’s slim, compact, and fits neatly in a pocket or purse for taking it on the go. The “Where Am I?” emergency locator feature provides people with ease of mind while traveling as with one touch of the icon the unit will display the closest intersections or addresses.
The Garmin nuvi 265WT is slim and compact, making it likely to insert the device down into a pocket or handbag. This model is equipped with free real-time traffic updates from Navteq for as long as you own it. It also has more than six million points of interest (POI), which are places such as gas stations, restaurants, and hotels. Its 4.3-inch display is easy to read from any direction because of its sunlight-readable screen. Hands-free calls are possible with the Nuvi 265WT as it is Bluetooth compatible. This GPS allows users to talk hands-free and make or receive incoming calls all by touching the onscreen keypad or tapping the screen and talking into its built-in microphone.
