 "Best GPS" 2009-08-27
By Patricia Robinson
This is the 3rd portable GPS I have purchased. The 1st was a Gamin Street pilot. It was a good product. I gave that one to my daughter when I upgraded to a Tom Tom. The Tom Tom was no where near as good, and the sound became so garbled that I could not understand what it was saying. I missed an important meeting because of it. I tossed that and purchased this Garmin. I recommend Garmin over the Tom Tom.. The sound is clear and loud enough, but my favorite feature is, upon reaching your destination, it will also tell you what side ot the street it is on.

 "Not very intuitive" 2009-07-16
By morpheus (Nashville, TN)
I was so excited when i got this Garmin nuvi 750 last christmas. It worked great within my city and i actually loved it. Of course the portable dashboard mount is not a very good thing. The suction cup doesn't stay put and keeps falling off the base. So, minus points for that.

I went to Italy for my honeymoon and bought Garmin City Navigator NT SD Data Card for Garmin GPS Units, Europe (010-10680-00) from Amazon. It was a little SD card and i slipped it in my GPS unit and we headed off to Rome.

Once we were there, it was very difficult to figure out how to make Garmin use the new card instead of trying to use the US map. Man! it took me several minutes to figure out how to trick garmin to make it use the darn Europe map and finally i was able to make it work. So, lack of user friendly interface is a big minus.

Once i got it to work, it was good except that you need to be in an open space for the GPS to capture satellites. We were in the downtown of Rome and with all those buildings and narrow streets, it took at least a good 30 minutes for Garmin to find a satellite as it kept going out of satellite range! One day my wife was sick and i had to go find a chinese restaurant to get some soup for her and Garmin, after 30 minutes of my patience, took me right to the restaurant and back to our hotel. For that one reason alone, it was worth the money that i spent on the European map.

After we got back home, it took a few minutes to make Garmin use the US map. It is not very intuitive.

If you don't switch maps and use the factory installed map, it is great. if not it is a little pain to figure things out and their website sucks if you try to get some help.

By Charles H. Fitch (Dallas, OR USA)
I am amazed and plesed with the detailed listings available on the program as well as the touch method of selection. One of the outstanding features of this equipment is it's geographic accuracy in pinpointing my exact location at all times



I am however frustrated by my inability to obtain a copy of an operating manual, either by Email or written request to the Garmin compny.I purchased my present GPS in early June and to date have received no response to my request for a manual even though I am willing and able to pay for same.

 "Nuvi 750 is Confused." 2009-07-01
By James K. Edelen (Kentucky)
I am disappointed in the 750 GPS. Although it will take me to the addresses I request, it often has a strange way of routing me there. Although I have it set to find the fastest route, it often ignores the interstates and puts me off on curvy 2 lane country roads, slowing my trip considerably.



Also, the Nuvi 750 seems to be unable or unwilling to see roads built within the past 2-3 years. Even when driving on them, it cannot identify them. It cannot even find my home, although it has been there for almost 20 years. In case you are wondering, I downloaded the latest 2010 map updates a week ago, and am still experiencing problems.



I live in a rural area, and it seems to do better in urban city areas.



For the money I paid for this thing (close to $200.00) I expected much more. I would not recommend a Garvin GPS to anybody.

Bought this for my father who drives a taxi cab for a living. He loves this thing. Whenever he doesn't know a route he asks for the address and in seconds he's on his way. He's not tech savvi and he can still navigate through the functions too.

touch screen stopped working (unit still turns on and loads maps)called garmin ,of course for $99 they will troubleshoot and advise as to cost to fix.unit is in pristine condition ,looks exactly as it did when purchased ...no drops,or left in vehicle especially window due to thefts, so it has been well taken care of.garmin can not (will not)say what could be happening with a unit in this great shape but otherwise useless

 "Garmin 750 - Best thing since sliced bread" 2009-08-11
By Sherial Bradley (Arkansas)
Purchased the Garmin 750 in July 2009. Unit arrived quickly, instructions were easy to use. We've traveled in both very rural areas and very urban areas and it worked perfectly. On a weekend trip to Nashville we merely stored all of the hotels, resturants, shopping areas, and tourist destinations we needed prior to leaving home in the favorites. Regardless of where we were, we just pressed the hotel favorite or other favorite we needed and the Garmin directed us right to the destination. On a weekend trip to a small southern town, I needed to go to Wal-mart. I merely selected shopping and keyed in Wal-mart, the unit gave me a list of stores and the distance. I made my selection and was good to go. We've considered purchasing one for quite some time - why did we put if off! The voice is pleasant, the destination time is handy, and the speed limit display is very helpful.

By R. Mazzeo (Southeast PA)
The Good:

- Everything you'd expect from a Garmin, good interface and fairly intuitive.

- Was wary about the loss of external antenna when Garmin went from the 6xx series to the 7xx. But I have never lost satellite lock, not even inside my house while programming it.

- Plenty of POIs, great for finding a familiar restaurant or store when working on the road.

- Seems to learn your usual driving speed over time and calculates destination times accordingly.

- Built in speaker is more than adequate

- Customer service (see below)



The Bad:

- FM Transmitter is weak.

- Be sure to check its planned route first before leaving, like anything that generates directions it can throw you a curve once in a while. This is the exception.

- Check Garmin's online maps before updating your unit. Their map supplier missed a fairly large new bypass that opened a couple years ago that still wasn't in the 2009 update. Their cartography department was quick to reply when I inquired about it though. (It will be there in the 2010 update).

 "Mixed feelings" 2009-07-27
By Ron Cronovich (Kenosha, WI)
I purchased this Garmin 750 about 6 months ago, to replace a Garmin 650 that was stolen. I loved the 650. The 750 adds a few features (the most useful of which is constructing a route with multiple destinations). However, overall I am a bit disappointed, for two reasons:



1) The first time you turn it on after not using it for a while, it takes a long time to acquire satellites. By "long," I mean 3-5 minutes. Very frustrating. Fortunately, if you stop briefly in the middle of a road trip, it acquires satellites pretty quickly after turning it back on.



2) The screen is not as bright as my Garmin 650. I am actually on my 2nd 750: I returned the first one because the screen was very dim. The second one is much better by comparison with the first, but noticeably dimmer than the 650. This is a bit of an inconvenience when you're driving in bright sunlight, and when you're driving in the evening - late enough for the unit to shift to night mode, but before it's actually fully dark outside.



Otherwise, the Nuvi 750 functions fine. It chooses routes very well, its navigation features are intuitive and very useful (like with all the Nuvi line), the build quality is good and the suction mount to the windshield is very secure - even going over big bumps and rough roads, the Nuvi stays mounted pretty well. I've researched GPS units from other companies and prefer the Garmin Nuvi series, I will get another Nuvi when it's time to replace this one.



I'm wondering if Garmin's quality control is inconsistent, because many of the reviews here are very favorable, while many others cite problems such as mine.



My advice: find the Nuvi with the right mix of features you want and need, and buy it from a reputable place with a good return policy (like Amazon), then use it around town for a week or two. Hopefully, you'll get a good one, but if not you'll be able to return it for a replacement.

 "An amazing tool" 2009-07-12
By The two of us (Minneapolis, MN)
I purchased the GPS for my daughter who has difficulty finding her way from point A to B. After she used it for a short period of time, she told me that the GPS was invented for her. It is very easy to use and it is accurate. This is the second one I purchased from Amazon. I reccommend this item.
