Garmin nuvi 295W Wi-Fi Portable GPS Navigator Reviews:

Amazon customers provided an average rating of 4.5 out of 5 stars. These customers described the Garmin nuvi 295W as “Scrolling with the touch screen is nice both in the menus, and in map view mode.”, “Navigation is simple, and within 20 minutes I had learned the layout of apps, menus and interface as well as configured the personal stuff (home address, wi fi connection, 2 email accounts, home page, and a couple of bookmarks)”, and “This thing usually finds satellites in less than a minute, it has good playback quality for sounds (I can hear it over my car radio), the screen is big enough to be functional, but no so large that it is distracting, and it redirects in less than a minute as well. The GPS system is fantastic.”

CNET Editor Antuan Goodwin gave the Garmin nuvi 295W 3 out of 5 stars. Mr. Goodwin said, “The Garmin Nuvi 295W features crisply rendered maps and quick routing/rerouting of trips. Turn-by-turn directions feature text-to-speech spoke street names. The unit’s autocorrect function learns frequently typed words and helps with entering destinations quickly.”
