Just in time for the holiday season, the new garmin nuvi 760, 770 and 750 gps systems are rolling out and look to become the best selling and most buzz worthy units in the market place. I love how they have used the very slim and professional slim-form-factor of the 200 series, while building upon the 600 series high end performance features with some new (and long overdue) new features to finally roll out on such devices.
The garmin nüvi 760, nüvi 750 and nüvi 770 still maintain all the bells and whistles of the old ‘grace de coup’ 650/660/670 models, with several notable additions:
Compare Garmin Nuvi 760 / 750 / 770 VS other series:
- Tracking waypoints for where the unit was last unmounted (where did i park that darn car… oh yah!??)
- Storing and easy to pull up route (bring up where you go most frequently)
- Added info such as speed limits on current road (oh man, i couldve bought something with that speeding fine!)
- All nuvi 700’s come standard with FM receiver to play the sounds through cars audio system (man my speakers are pimping!)
- The darn cool design and color… new antenna keeps it sleek and stylish, gun metal metallic colors are awesome too!
The differences when you compare the three are similar to how garmin’s modeling structure has always worked with X50 - X60 - X70 systems:
Compare Garmin Nuvi 760 vs 770 vs 750:
- The Garmin nüvi 750 is the base unit… recommend for those without need for bluetooth, traffic receiver, and planning on only traveling within USA
- The Garmin nüvi 760 adds bluetooth hands free calling, an FM traffic receiver for navigating around jam and a few other feature differences… recommended for those that can take advantage of bluetooth and travel frequently through volatile traffic conditions in North America
- The Garmin nüvi 770 adds bluetooth, the FM traffic receiver, and adds transatlantic preloaded maps and location databases which costs about $200-250 to update lesser units with same data… recommended for people that may or intend to travel cross continent
