Garmin nüvi 2599 LMT E NU navigation device (5 inches (12.7 cm) multi-touch glass display, Live Services, Smartphone Link, Speech recognition) (Electronics)

Customer Review

I have the device in use for several weeks.

The following positive things I would call that had shown the device with me:

1. The update worked without problems.
2. satellites are found within a few seconds.
3. The menu navigation is quickly comprehensible.
4. The control by voice commands is Excellent. One of the highlights for me.
5. Uploading of POI's is very simple.
6. The volume is very good for city driving.

The following things that I find negative:

1. The glass plate reflects the light incident from the rear by the rear window.
2. voice instructions come often already 2 or more kilometers before turning in urban traffic - probably if no cross streets
available ..
3. turn by turn sometimes come too late - namely only in the turning lane.
4. The number of meters to bend is absolutely illogical for me because it zeros after the bending process.
5. Speed ​​Warner announces itself already at 1 km / h is exceeded
6. New calculations put not quickly enough one, but about 6-7 seconds after departure from the calculated route and without comment.

After only two days, I was a little frustrated because I had felt the navigation to be very sobering. Especially the late turn by turn and the unusual meter counting for me were first a return reason. An existing service in the car Tomtom does it better.
Those are the only two negative points that let me think the device to send back. I kept it eventually because I had covered my expectations. At the speed warning after 1 Km / h can get used to and you could well find (Blitzer Marathon).

Basically you can find well with this device his goal. After all, I had found each target. The service is very good. Especially the voice input is a great comfort, I do not want to miss. If one has set out that the meters count apparently zeroes after the bending process, then still slaps you look at prior to the head, but you no longer get tangled up. The whole device is an absolute compromise between usability and navigation for me.

For four star it is not enough for me, however. Because the navigation is exactly the one that should work without compromise. Inaccuracies are indeed to endure, but for me with a bitter aftertaste.

A BUY recommendation so I can not give, because this device must be first tolerated by the user with his weaknesses.
