Garmin DriveSmart 55 MT-S UK

The Garmin driveSmart 55 is perfect for my needs, it can also be linked to my phone, so you can receive calls and speak hands free. The display is very clear and setting a route very simple, I like the ETA feature too. I mount mine on an air vent on the dashboard, so not to clutter or obscure my windscreen.

I love Garmin products. It's clear and easy to use. The picture is big and clear. Voice commands precise and the touch screen very responsive. Hasn't failed me yet making it very reliable. Looks good and overly satisfied with my purchase.

I have used this sat nav conistently over the last week or so and found it to be good in quality. The street names are fairly accurate and it appears to keep up quite well with where i go. The only issue i find is the navigation accuracy sometimes is a bit off, other than that a good product

I have always been a nervous driver and worried that I'd get lost or drive at the wrong speed or so on so on. yet i bought this sat nav for this very reason and i can tell you it's brilliant. It's not massive and it's very clear in directions the gps is very accurate. it's much better than my mobile phones sat nav app. It's really easy to use and update. the battery life is good also. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a satnav! 5/5 stars!

Replaced my out of date TomTom with this and it is OK but it has it's flaws, Voice recognition is a hit or miss and routes i have used for years with the TomTom are sketchy on this, it has took me down two dead ends and tried to get me to turn into a walled off road and these are not new features as they have been like that at least 20 years. All maps are up to date as well and all updates were done when i bought it. So i am not 100% confident in it but i dare say i will get used to it the more i use it.

Really easy to configure and use. Excellent display, a lot to like. One niggle, it misses junctions and roundabout which are not important to the journey, in every case you want to go straight over the junction/roundabout and the map shows this, but there are no audio directions, and i find that disconcerting. But i have no regrets, it does an excellent job.

My main bugbear with this satnav is that, when leaving a motorway, you are told to ‘enter the roundabout’. There is no advance instruction as to which lane you should be in to be in the right place for the exit you will need to take. This isn’t the only time it gives poor directions, too, and I will not be considering another Garmin satnav when I replace this one. The voice recognition feature does not work at all and I am considered to be a clear speaker. It accepted most of the words I set up, although it said that two totally different words sounded too alike, but it resolutely ignores any voice commands while in use.

Having previously had an older Garmin satnav this one has proved easy to use and is definitely an improvement. The traffic information is better, the maps are clearer and the speed limits, although not right in every case, are more right than previously. I was worried about it connecting to my mobile but that hasn't been at all problematic. It is also a nice size so fits properly into the built in cradle in my Fiat Panda. I am very pleased with it.

Tyvärr att den är ganska svårt att förstår hur man ska hantera i början utan bra och tid krävande assistans av en kunnig hjälp. Jag kunde inte att ändra språk ryska till svenska. Trots att jag skrev ut manual med många sidor.....

Das Gerät ist in Deutschland völlig unbrauchbar. Voreingestellt ist eine Karte für das United Kingsdom und Frankreich. Es ist nicht möglich, die Karte zu tauschen, also eine für Deutschland taugliche (Zentraleuropa) zu laden. Diese Möglichkeit ist im Programm definitiv nicht vorgesehen. Ich kann das Gerät nur wegschmeißen. Leider ist die Rückgabefrist von 14 Tagen versäumt worden.

Nur ein Navi für UK und Irland sollte besser gekennzeichnet werden zuviel Umstände bei der Rücksendung Fahrt zur Post 2x in meinen Fall bei den Benzinpreisen. Auch ein Anruf im Callcenter wenig Erbauung keine wesentliche Hilfe. Der Ausdruck der Retourenaufkleber zu kompliziert
