I just got this Garmin Nuvi 360 to replace my aging Garmin iQue 3600 and am very impressed! Very easy to set up and use, and has great features like working as a handsfree system with a Bluetooth phone, an MP3 player, and FM traffic receiver. It paired easily (almost automatically) with my Trea… read full review »

This product is not as good as it should be.

THis is not the best of the systems available. It does not name the streets and often takes you around in circles. If you want to use a certain road or circumvent a road, or are even in a jam and want a different route, this gps system will not provide it. All in all, there are other models of… read full review »

Takes the stress out of finding your way

I bought the Nuvi 360 after shopping around a bit to find a great price. Though expensive, it's a true stress reliever when you're on the road and wondering how long before that next turn. Though I don't use the Bluetooth functionality that much, it does provide great sound quality the few times I've used it to make a phone call. And this units compact size is worlds apart from the first generation of GPS… read full review »

Never be lost again

impressed with this product

NOV

2007

I think this is the best automotive GPS on the market. It is very accurate and has kept me from becoming hopelessly lost on many occasions. Because it talks you can keep your eyes on the road as you drive, a major safety feature. It also shows the route on the screen, automatically changing at night. The screen display can be zoomed in or out depending on your needs. The speech functions are clear and you have a choice of voices and many languages to choose from. It is programmed to tell you in advance of the next action you must take. It is so small that you can take it with you when… read full review »

I had never owned a GPS unit before, but on a shuttle trip to the airport the driver had a Garmin unit, and I was surprised to find that even from a couple rows back I could still see the screen clearly. So I did a little research and got the Nuvi 360 for two reasons in particular: (1) it reads street names aloud, and (2) the Bluetooth connection to the phone (here in California, it's about to become state law that drivers must use a hands-free device with their cellphones, and I didn't have one). — — It doesn't take long to learn that probably any GPS unit is going to have… read full review »

I love the idea of new technology but must admit that I'm not very good at figuring out complex products. So I am so grateful to the folks at Garmin for making such an easy-to-use GPS. The touch screen on this GPS is fast and uncomplicated. Store your favorite addresses....like your home address....by touching the screen to get to "favorites". Easily enter your address (or addresses) by touching the screen to bring up the number and alphabet screens and spell out what you want to store in favorite places. Then from anywhere you are, ask the GPS (via touching the screen… read full review »

I've had my Garmin Nuvi 360 a little over a year now and I still love it. It's been great getting me to any destination effortlessly. I'm a realtor and it has been a lifesaver finding the quickest route from house to house. I simply punch all the addresses in before I meet with clients and off I go. I then go to "recent destinations" to select from a list for the next home to drive to. — My favorite part is the Point of Interests that are included. We were inspired to take our first real road trip this past summer and it was a blast. It told me… read full review »

I don't think I will ever be lost again now that I have a Garmin! I may get into a car accident because I am playing with it when I am driving and I do think the maps are limited, but I really like my new GPS unit. I can usually find things that I am looking for when I am looking for them, if not by typing the name of the place by looking for something else that is nearby. — I really like the screen, it's easy to see when I am driving, I mount it down low in my "ashtray" which isn't really an ashtray but whatever - you know what I mean - and I like it that I can touch the screen… read full review »

I recieved the Nuvi 360 as a Christmas present. It's now early february, and I still can't seem to get the connection between my phone and the unit to "stick". — — Every time my phone goes out of range, and then comes back, I have to re-enter a pin before I can use it. Then, it will occasionally lose connection even when I haven't moved the phone or the GPS an inch. — — I'm sure there is an easy fix, but it sure isn't easy to find. — — However, for the GPS itself, I love it. I find the user interface very intuitive and the mape features easy to use. … read full review »

The Garmin Nuvi 360 is very easy to install and operate. The touch screen interface is simple to use and the voice prompts contribute not only to safety but keeps you out of panic mode by informing you of the upcoming turn well in advance needing to make a course direction. The bluetooth capability works great too. I purchased the unit primarily for my wife, who loves it. The favorites and places of interest database included with the maps is very handy for her when she is traveling. With it, she can find the closest gas station and also know how far/how long it will take to get there. … read full review »

I love my Garmin it keeps me from getting lost especially when I go to the mountains sightseeing. I have our property programed into the Gramin and no matter where I go when I am ready to go back home I just hit the home button and it takes me back to our property. No matter how lost I get Garmin gets me back to civilization. — No matter where I travel it will find the hotel, restaurant or address I need to go to. It also finds banks, gas stations, etc. in route while I am traveling. I have even named my Garmin as it also talks to you. —… read full review »

The Garmin Nuvi is simple to use and compact. Although the screen size may seem small at first, it is definitely adequate and reading/hearing directions is not a problem. We have found most locations by name but had to type in a few addresses (which was surprising because they were established businesses); once the destination was selected, the directions have always been perfect. Overall, the Garmin Nuvi is a great purchase for someone who doesn't need fancy gimmicks (I think that includes most people) and just needs some help finding their… read full review »

The Garmin Nuvi360 is very easy to use. Set up is as easy as opening the box and plugging in the device. My new Nuvi came loaded with current North American maps. Very intuitive panel. This GPS is fully portable and lightweight and can be plugged in in any vehicle. Bluetooth capable for hands-free phone and traffic reports. I felt like I went from novice to expert in the first afternoon using this GPS tool. — I highly recommend the Garmin Nuvi360. —… read full review »

If you are in the market for a easy and accurate to use GPS device- this is for you. I received it for X-mas this yr as a gift and I am so far very impressed. It has many functions and easy to use features-- all of course easy to input or the prompted picks it chooses--good stuff. Talk by talk function actually allows you to listen without even looking at it and with road names, not just left or right, etc. — Go get yourself one .... —… read full review »

A must have if you drive around in unfamiliar places. It gets a good signal, you don't even need to install, it gets full signal without exterior antenna. Plenty of features....bluetooth is great...Highly recommend. The traffic doesn't really give you the information you need, but it is better than nothing. Battery does tend to go, but you can plug in if necessary. Haven't even tried the mp3 player part of it. —… read full review »
