Great Device December 1, 2008 If you are one to get "mis directed" this is the device for you! The prices are dropping - eventhough this is an older model it has all the bells, even more features then the newer models for the price!
Perfect and no drawback so far December 1, 2008 I bought my Garmin last month. Before my purchase, I already did a survey and realized that this model is a good one. Through my usage of more one month, it turns out to be perfect, from the display brightness to voice volume. This model did provide "safe mode" which means you can't operate the menu when the vehicle is moving. That's a very good reminding. Totally, I am very satisfied by this Garmin.
Good, but a few glitches. December 1, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The Garmin nuvi 350, which I have only used for a few days now, does the job quite adequately and is easy to use. The hardware is very well designed. There are some small problems: 1) Some of the routes are clearly not optimal. In my home area, it sometimes takes me on routes that I would never choose because I know better. 2) It sometimes recommends U-turns when they are neither safe nor even desirable. 3) It sometimes tells you to turn (right, say) when it should be saying "keep" right, i.e. there is no actual turn at all. This could seriously mess you up in an unfamiliar area, which is when you really need to depend on the GPS. 4) It doesn't seem to have many business establishments (e.g. restaurants) in its database. In spite of these complaints, I am pleased with the item (hence the 4 stars) and would recommend it, especially since the price is still coming down. Garmin has discontinued it but hopefully will continue to support it with map and other updates.
Good Navigator, But Has A Quirk. December 1, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I purchased this unit in January of 2008 for ~$300. It was then in the middle of Garmin's Nuvi line and offered most of the features I wanted. Generally it is a very good GPS unit, but there are several things that bother me. 1) Touch screen is flaky (e.g. touching 'A' clicks 'U') at times which slows down look-ups and destination entries. 2) Routing preferences seem to have little to no effect on the route solution. 3) POI searches don't find results when using categories, but do work by name search (after an eternity of waiting). And finally, 4) Garmin only gives a free map update if one is released within 30 days of registering your unit. They only update in April so DO NOT register yours until April if you want a free update. Map updates cost nearly as much as a new low end unit. This model has been discontinued so you should start seeing them being dumped at fire sale prices.
Fantastic product! November 30, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I've been VERY pleased with the nuvi 350 since I bought it! Garmin has been the choice for my family for many years and I'm again impressed by their product. The interface is very easy to learn and navigate, information is presented clearly and firmware updates are easy to obtain and install.
Satellite acquisition is extremely fast, even inside a vehicle. I'm also pleased that Garmin has retained the same plug-in style for their external antenna as in past models, since I've owned the Garmin external antenna from a previous device; it fits into a small hole in the side of the nuvi 350's flip-up antenna and adds even more accuracy.
The windshield mount is unobtrusive, fitting nicely into the high-left (roof at the A-post) corner in my car. I haven't tried the dashboard disc yet, but it felt too smooth to stay in place on my Honda Accord's sloped dash. It's easy to read and doesn't take too much focus off the road, and the screen's color scheme changes from day to night so as to not overpower/underpower the user in high or low ambient light.
The routing has been fairly accurate, though I have discovered some minor flaws. In one instance, I was directed from one rural state highway to another in favor of shortcuting on a corner on what turned out to be a dirt road over a closed bridge; the rerouting was around an intersection I knew to be very busy, but I had to return to the original route. Another error includes a stretch of highway near Allentown, Pa., which has been open not quite a year but isn't in the map yet.
Within the routing is an option to detour. This is different from auto-rerouting when you miss a turn in that you can detour ahead of something and the device will replot your route. I've been pleased by this, but it only detours around an immediate hazard (i.e. bypassing an accident, a known problem area, etc.). The detoured route puts you back onto the original route fairly quickly, which is tough when you're trying to avoid a long stretch of road, such as a highway with a long construction zone.
The speaker is very clear and easy to understand. I was very pleased with the street name software, which not only reads aloud that there is a turn ahead but onto what road (even local names are sufficiently accurate; I live in Upstate NY and Indian names are very close, if not right on). The UI also includes the ability to load mp3 files and Audible audiobooks for listening, and these are very clear for such as small speaker.
I would overall recommend this as high bang for the buck. It's very affordable (which is what eventually convinced me to purchase it), very feature-laden and very easy to use. Garmin is known to have stronger U.S. mapping than many competitors, such as TomTom, and with very few exceptions I've been thoroughly impressed. The screen may be smaller than some other comparable models, but it's never been a problem for me and the additional cost for the larger screen doesn't seem to be worth it.
