Compare Garmin Car GPS Vs Tom Tom
The nuvi 350, on the other hand, has a few great features like maps of the whole United States and Canada. In the middle of the market, Garmin has the incredible nuvi 760, which sells for just under $350. The 760 has a wider screen than either the nuvi 200 or the nuvi 350. Consumer Reports called the nuvi 760 the best overall GPS on the market, recently. At the high end of the market, there's the nuvi 880. Tom Tom Tom Tom doesn't really compete with Garmin at the high end of the market. Where Tom Tom is most competitive is the low end. Their Tom Tom One, 3rd Edition can do much more than the nuvi 200, but sells for essentially the same! It also has Tom Tom's own Map Share technology, which let's users actually correct Tom Tom's map database. Personally, I would go with the Garmin nuvi 760, if I wanted a middle range product. So, my comparison ends up like this: Tom Tom One, 3rd Edition for $150, the Garmin nuvi 760 for around $350, and the Garmin nuvi 880 for $900. There's certainly more to know about GPS devices than just this. |
