Garmin nuvi 660

Garmin's new nuvi GPS navigation device bills itself as a 'personal travel assistant'. Unlike other GPS devices, this machine isn't just designed to sit on your dashboard and coo "turn left" and "turn right"

Garmin nüvi 660

Garmin, already a popular brand in the GPS market, should win a few more fans with its 660. Combining an impressive 4.3in touchscreen display with Bluetooth hands-free calling, portable entertainment and a full set of features, this is satnav heaven....

The nüvi's 4.3in LCD stands out from the crowd, boasting navigation perfection that doesn't compromise portability. It achieves the wow factor through hands-free calls, but is this enough to justify its price tag in comparison to the HP?

At heart the nüvi 660 is a Global Positioning System (GPS) satellite navigation system. It also incorporates MP3 player, Bluetooth hands free functionality and an FM transmitter (see later!). The nüvi is a whole family of different units from the...

Garmin - Nuvi 660

Over the last year we've seen in-car GPS devices change into more than just navigational aides. High-end models now go above and beyond additional map coverage and in Garmin's Nuvi 660 we've found one of the ...

There's a lot to choose from in the high-end GPS market but Garmin's Nuvi 660 offers that little bit extra over most rivals, in terms of both features and usability. It's one of the nicest in-car GPS units we've used and comes highly recommended for...

Garmin nuvi 660

An upgrade to the smaller nuvi 300, Garmin's new nuvi 660 adds a larger touch screen and Bluetooth hands-free calling to an already solid package, mak...

Display, User interface, Size, Solid features list, Bluetooth hands-free calling

Address searching order, Sunlight glare can be an issue, Slow re-routing times in some instances, no external volume controls

The nuvi 660 adds a larger display and Bluetooth hands-free calling to an already solid previous unit, but some small deficiencies still remain. Best of all though, the pricing difference between models is minimal, so the 660 is definitely worth the...

Garmin Nuvi 660 review: Garmin Nuvi 660

The Garmin Nuvi series has proven to be a great success for the veteran navigation manufacturer. The Garmin Nuvi 350 impressed us not only with its solid performance but also with its travel-friendly features, and it consistently ranks up there as one...

The Garmin Nuvi 660 offers an accurate GPS receiver, text-to-speech functionality, and traffic capabilities. The versatile system also features a gorgeous display, integrated Bluetooth, travel tools, and multimedia functions.

The device is expensive, and there are no external volume controls. The system also doesn't support multidestination route creation.

If you can afford the hefty price tag, the Garmin Nuvi 660 is a solid-performing and versatile GPS device that offers all the navigation basics, tools for the world traveler, Bluetooth, and more.
