GPS Reviews

How to Find Them

The very best GPS reviews are written by owners of GPS units.  The owners have used the GPS for some time.  They know what is good and what is bad with it.

Many 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 review a GPS than someone who does a quick review and then goes on to review the next GPS.

I use Amazon.com as my source for GPS reviews.  There are numerous reviews for every GPS sold on Amazon and they are very easy to find.

As an example, here is a picture of the Amazon product page for the Garmin Nuvi 760.  This GPS has a four star average review.  Click on the "customer reviews" link and you can read all the reviews for the Nuvi 760.  You will find them quite revealing.

When you click on the review link, it will load the "Customer Review" page for the Garmin Nuvi 760. (Pictured below).

From this you can quickly tell:

• This GPS has a four star average rating for all reviews (1,028 total reviews)

• The reviews tend to be favorable with 532 five stars, 316 four stars, 97 three stars, etc.

• The most helpful favorable review and the most helpful critical review are presented at the top of the page for your ease of access.

You can then scroll down and read all the reviews and draw your own conclusions.  This is a powerful tool for quickly determining what owners think about the particular GPS.

To start reading reviews, click on the following image to go to Amazon.  This will put you on the Amazon search results page for GPS & Navigation › Vehicle GPS sorted by Bestselling.  When the page loads, scan down the listed GPS units and find the one you want reviewed.  Click on it to load the product page and click on the review link at the top of the page.
