Nuvi 200 is a great product!!!

by  greengemini,   Jun 27, 2008

Pros:  Voice guided, swivel suction cradle, and nice screen colors.

Cons:  No standard charger comes in kit, only the car charger is included.

The Bottom Line:  All you need if you are only going to used it to travel occasionally to different cities or find unfamiliar places in you own hometown.

Overall Rating: 5/5 stars
 

Author's Review

At first I was going to get a TomTom because they were on sale but changed my mind at the last minute when I was told that Garmin was the market leader. I am glad that I did. When I got home with it, I charged it a little and then turned it on to play with it and it was very very easy to use. No complex instructions here. The touch screen works well and the unit had no problem acquiring a satellite connection. All I had to do was throw in an address and it handled the rest. This model also has voice-guided directions on it. It will tell you that a turn is coming up and when to make the turn but it will not say the street names like the Nuvi 260 does(you have to pay extra for that feature). In reality, you will not really need it to say the street names because it tells you when to make a right or left turn before and when you need to turn. It does an excellent job at keeping up with your car on the road in real-time on the map view too. The voice is loud enough to hear while the cars is running, even when the windows are down. Also, it kept a 4.5-hour charge before it even started to show "low battery." An added bonus, you can use it like the yellow pages when looking for businesses because it displays their phone numbers. Even though it is an entry level GPS, it is most likely all you will need if you are only going to used it to travel occasionally in different cities or find unfamiliar places in you own hometown. This does everything you will need so do not spend more than $150 on a GPS.
