Garmin Nuri 360 – a simple, sleek GPS product

2

I just got the Garmin Nuri 360 GPS unit and I must say it is a nice product.  The user interface is simple and the product itself is super slim.  The product contains bluetooth, card slot, anti-theft features, multiple language, cell phone capable, speakerphone, FM TMC traffic alerts, USB interface and elegant antenna.  The product was ready to go, as the software was already downloaded onto the unit. 

The additional product features include:

  • weight: 5.1 oz
  • size: 3.87″W x 2.91″H x 0.87″D
  • display: 2.8″W x 2.1″H
  • battery life: 4 to 8 hours, depending on usage
  • storage: 2 GB internal storage
  • text to speech (TTS)
  • MP3 player
  • audio book player
  • JPEG picture viewer
  • work travel clock with time zones
  • currency converter
  • measurement converter and calculator

While the disply could be a little bigger (check on the Nuri 660), I really do like this portable product.  Those looking for a worthwhile GPS product, check this one out.

    Price is still a problem for the moment but over time it will go down. It would be nice to build in a radar system with these devices.

    Hi Sunny,
    Nice blog here on the Nuvi 360. I am considering the Nuvi 360 here and thought I might see what you thought of the device after using it for a solid year.
    In response to Steve, the price has finally come down, now around $425.00

    Would you still recommend this after 1 year? Or should I look for one of the newer TomTom’s etc?
