Garmin Nuvi 1490LMT - The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.

camera digital review Garmin Bluetooth Portable Navigator Lifetime

Garmin Bluetooth Portable Navigator Lifetime

I have this GPS for couple of weeks and I like everything about it. I have been a Garmin user for 4 years so did not want to make a switch to other brand. The screen is nice, it gives correct directions (I could validate on the routes I know). I will know more in couple of weeks when I leave for a longer trip.
I have not used the bluetooth yet, some people complained about ads for real time traffic, I did see ads pop up but they were not annoying in any way. If you don't know this GPS tells the speed limit and the car's speed display changes color from black to red if you drive faster than the speed limit. So, far I have been able to identify couple of stretches where it showed wrong speed limit (off by 5 miles/hour). The real time traffic information is nice, it shows a "red/yellow/green" icon in the left denoting how the traffic is and if it anything other than green it lists the delay you can expect in minutes. I am happy with my pick, got it on black friday and hope you enjoy the review!

  1. For several years I have been using a Garmin Nuvi 760. I love the screen size and the simplicity. It has started to break down recently and even with software updates, I think it's reached the end of the line. So if anyone has a suggestion for a gps that is similar, it would be greatly appreciated.

  2. My employer wants me to find a GPS at a reasonable cost, to put in all of the trucks we have at our company. The GPS needs to know car only roads, height of bridges, etc. Any ideas?

  3. I need a GPS unit where I can make my own map directions on dirt/gravel roads, something that will track my drive to the location and save those directions......any thoughts?

  4. My dad drives from city to city in order to deliver concrete material. He needs a good GPS Navigation system, which is a really good and trusted one?

  6. I was considering the 1390LMT with lifetime maps. But are there any others i should considered for under 200 bucks? Please speak of personal experience and thank you.

  7. I'm looking for something easy to read/use and with the most intelligent software. I hate when devices of any sort can't perform tasks it's designed to do. Like rerouting or traffic updates. Also I love the feature where u can choose the fastest/shortest/most economical routes.
