Garmin Nuvi 880 Navigation System Review
Enjoying My Garmin Nuvi 880 Navigation System
The Garmin Nuvi 880 was featured in the CES 2008, it was extraordinary to buy a state of the art navigation system such as this one. It has a good track record as a proven system. It actually caught us off guard due to the other GPS systems we tried and they were not as spectacular as this one. We were amazed at the accuracy of the system, it was prompt and answered all our calls, it gives accurate and detailed information. It features the one touch system. It doesn’t affect my driving with sunlight blinding the vision. The only thing that I could see was a down fall was that every additional feature had a separate cost to it.
The design of the Garmin Nuvi 880 is nice and sleek it is a simple but yet compact system. Its not really big and does take a lot of room in the car. It is big enough to view directions and other information. It gives direct and straight to the point information and it doesn’t take long to provide efficient information. Although the price ranges on an average of 500- $800 and worth every dollar. Can you imagine driving without one, I believe everyone need a navigation system, it saves on looking at maps. The voice activation makes it so convenient, as I am driving it tells me where to go.
