What's great about it: easy to use; no "recalculating" message
What's not so great: not sure how to delete locations; need to figure out
I'm very happy with my Garmin NUVI 50 LM. The one I just purchased is for my daughter because she was very impressed with it when we used mine on a trip recently.

I bought this product a day before I had to travel from Washington state to Texas. Once I got pass registration everything was very easy to setup. I made the trip with time to spare avoiding all traffic issues and toll roads by following the direction from my GPS device.

What's great about it: affordable, easy set up, ready out of the box
What's not so great: could be larger
Easy to use from the box. The price was right. This GPS does what it is supposed to do; enough for my wife to know where she is and where she is going without offering too many needless options to add complication.

What's great about it: Easy directions for map download
What's not so great: Not many car models to choose from
I purchased the 50LM 5" GPS with Lifetime Map Updates. I love the screen size. It was replacing my older model, which has a smaller screen and wasn't updated. I would have had to pay for the update, which would have been fine, but for the deal I received at Best Buy, I purchased this model and I've been very happy with it. It has most of the typical settings as most Garmins have, but with this one I noticed if you go over the speed limit it will then show your speed in red along side the actual speed limit in black. It also shows a side screen view of the exit that you will take which helps in avoiding too early or late of an exit while driving. I also downloaded a voice to it. It's a male voice and he's not very chatty compared to my last Garmin lol. He just tells you where to go and is very to the point. Which my husband likes as well. My mil loved the deal so much, she had me pick one up for her as well. Now the only thing that bugs me, but is no big deal really, is that with my old Garmin it was pretty much on the mark when the speed limit would change. With this one it's a little off, but I mainly need it for directions not notifications of the speed limit, so no biggie. It will get it right eventually anyway.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Easy interface, 3D view
What's not so great: Voice assistance is annoying
Its a good value for price, I have used this for about a year now and the map locations are almost pin point. Although I must say the voice assistance is a bit annoying at times. Re-routing also works perfectly well. Good buy if you are looking for a new GPS and within a reasonable price.
I would recommend this to a friend!

DISLIKE:
-no voice to tell you it's "re-routing" (annoying!)
-sometimes the stop navigating icon disappears and the only way I can cancel a route is to re-boot
-sometimes when exiting a parking garage it can't find satellites, have to re-boot
-sometimes it thinks it's daytime, have to re-boot
-sometimes it takes too long to find the simplest category search for destination (ie Disneyland!)
-when typing there is a delay to what you see on the screen
-simple things like changing volume or brightness should be much easier

Really nice unit
Customer Rating

What's great about it: Large display easy see
What's not so great: seems to pause a little to catch up to course change
My older model Nuvi gave out after about 4 years of service, I bought this one to replace it. Working a service industry business, I really rely on GPS to get me to my different job sites every day. I like the larger display on this one and also the split screen at exits is a handy feature to know which lane to be in. If I had any complaints, it would be that it does seem to take a little longer than my last one to catch back up if I make a course change. Not enough to really be a problem though.
I would recommend this to a friend!
