Garmin nüvi 780 is 4.3 inch widescreen GPS from Garmin. It weighs just two pounds, and is one of the lightest GPS devices that I have recently reviewed here. This GPS device from Garmin is with anti-theft feature as well.

Why people are behind Garmin GPS devices? The reason is that they usually updates the user interface with every new version, so that it could be more user friendly than the earlier ones. For the same reason, even your grandma would be able to use Garmin nüvi 780 pretty effectively. One of the other reason why I like this cool GPS device from Garmin is that, the controls are placed spaciously. And thus I can bring my fingers through every controls without playing much with it. What they have did is, they have increased the distance between different controls.

Ever wondered how Garmin nüvi 780 is able to navigate pretty fast than its competitors? Well, it is made possible by the hotfix technology used in this cool device. And with the help of this technology, it receives data from a network of satellites and it gets a lock on it after getting a connection to them. Not just that, whether you turn it on or off, that doesn’t gonna make it a slow device !! Soon after you switch on the device it’ll recognize everything and will start to display the required details.
