Pros Traffic

With the economy in its "G.B. state" and many consumers tightening their belts, manufacturers have had to improve the value of their products.  Garmin, already a company known for making quality products, has decided to raise the bar by keeping prices where they are and adding high-end...

First I have to say, as of today (01/05/08) the picture associated with this item on epinions is incorrect.  It shows the 265T, which is pretty much the same thing as the 265WT but not widescreen.  Regrardless, it is still the incorrect picture.
EDIT: (03/23/09) All right!  They finally fixed... Read full review »

Based on a great experience with a Garmin Nuvi 680 that I bought about four years ago I bought my wife a Nuvi 265WT in February.  It was a "refurbished" unit, sold as new with a one year warranty from Amazon.  The first disappointment was that I was under impression that it spoke the...

Pros Easy to use, no non-sense GPS with tons of built-in Points of Interest.  
Cons Live Traffic option is not accurate.
Recommended it? Yes

265WT was our family's 5th GPS, and no doubt the best decision of the five.  With all our three cars having their own GPS I did not need another GPS.  But I got so frustrated with my 4th purchase which was the only non-Garmin product, that i thought it was about time to replace it only after a year...

I bought this product to replace the Mio GPS I bought several years ago for $99. I wanted to upgrade it and the fact I had coupons it felt like the right time. I'm not going to list all its descriptions. I'm sure you can find all its capabilities. I'm just going to list my experiences with it and... Read full review »

I have two other GPS units, another Garmin and a Magellan, so I'm familiar with basic concepts and functions.  On a recent trip that started in the dark I was pleased that the black background was not distracting by being too bright.  As the sun came up it switched to a white... Read full review »

I needed a handsfree bluetooth phone adaptor and wanted a gps for traffic conditions. This Nuvi 265 is nice! This is my 5th GPS and all have been Garmins so I don't know about the other OEM brands other than the factory unit in the Prius. I'd say the Nuvi compares favorably to the much more...
