Actual nüvi 360 User Feedback:
Our Research on the Garmin 360 portable GPS Suggests: The reviews for the Garmin 360 are very high. We read over 1000 reviews and the average was 8.85/10, which is well above average for this type of unit. The only real complaint was that it can be slow to locate a satellite signal, but this observation is common to almost all GPS units. Limitations:
Verdict: Get it if you aren’t afraid of buying a discontinued unit, this is probably the best bang for buck on the market right now. It’s likely that Garmin discontinued it simply to push their more expensive newer models. Even after being discontinued, the 360 continues to be a top selling GPS on Amazon. |
