Compare Garmin GPSThe best way to compare Garmin GPS units is by using the compare function on the Garmin website. Click on this link to Garmin.com which will open a new window with the Garmin Home Page displayed. As you follow the instructions on this page, you can switch back and forth between windows as we proceed. Let’s compare the Garmin GPS units in the Garmin Nuvi 1200 Series. On the Garmin home page, float your cursor over the “On the Road” link on the left of the screen. This will open a dropdown box where you will click “Automotive”. This will list all the current automotive GPS units. Notice that you can sort the list by the name of the GPS in A - Z order or you can sort the list in price order. On the right side of the screen, you will see a small square box by each unit. Click this box for the Nuvi 1200, 1250, and the 1260T. This will show a checkmark in each box. When you have selected the units for the comparison (limit of four units per comparison), scroll to the top or the bottom of the screen and click the “Compare” button. This will present the units you have checked in a side by side comparison table showing all available features as shown in the picture below. Scroll down this comparison table to compare Garmin GPS features. Look for gray shaded rows. The gray shading indicates that there are differences in features between the units in the comparison. In the example below, the Nuvi 1260T is Bluetooth capable and the other units are not. Once you have finished your comparison, I recommend you read customer reviews on the GPS units.
