GPS Reviews - How to Find Them

Reviews, links, and resources about Car Electronics: Car Audio, Car Video, Car GPS and More

.

The very best GPS reviews are written by owners of GPS units. The owners have used the GPS for some time.

Many GPS reviews are written by someone who is evaluating the GPS, but has not "lived" with it. Several weeks of using a GPS everyday as an owner makes a person much more qualified to write a GPS review than someone who does a quick review and then goes on to review the next GPS.

The best customer reviews are found on Amazon.com. Amazon pioneered the concept of customer reviews, and has led the way in posting customer reviews ever since.

 

Virtually every GPS sold on Amazon has reviews. The link to the reviews is found just under the GPS name at the top of the product page. The link is formatted "(NN customer reviews)" where the NN will be the number of times the particular GPS has been reviewed. Some GPS have only a few reviews where the Garmin Nuvi 350 had 3,104 at the time of writing this article.

Go to Amazon.com. In the right search input box, enter "Garmin Nuvi 760". Click the orange "GO" button to the right of the search input boxes.

Click the customer review link to the right of the yellow stars and go to the Customer Reviews page for the Nuvi 760 to get some very helpful information:

• A breakdown of how many reviews received one through five stars
• The average number of stars for all reviews
• How many reviews are on Amazon for the GPS
• The most helpful favorable review
• The most helpful critical review
• Sort functions to sort reviews by Most Helpful First or Newest First
• Selection of reviews by the number of stars.

From the reviews, you will learn the pros and cons of each GPS as shared by the GPS owners.

The-Best-GPS.com has a web page with pictures and instructions that show how to find the GPS reviews that you are looking for. See the Resource Box below for the link to the GPS reviews page.

GPS Review Sites - Can You Find What You're Looking For?

When I was first bitten by the GPS bug, I went immediately to the Internet to see what review sites I could find.

Now, please understand, I'm very comfortable with technical devices. The problem is this: for a given price point nearly all GPS devices do almost exactly the same thing.

Almost all have turn-by-turn voice prompts. The differences between devices in a certain price range are more subtle.

I drove around in each car for a day with a piece of cardboard stuck to my windshield about the size of the GPS I was mainly interested in.

For that I combed the reviews at Amazon to see what people were saying about various units sound quality while driving.

Just to save you time, I've collected the information I've gathered in my GPS review site.

Again, the Tom Tom did what I needed it to do. Just so you know, although I was tempted to, I didn't buy the GPS from the office supply store.

For instance, how much I would have to pay to upgrade to a GPS system with Bluetooth or MP3 capability.
