Selecting Your Destination
When you have selected your destination, the nüvi 780 guides you on your way there. As you draw near upcoming turns, the display zooms back so that you are given an overview of it in 3D format. You will see a large white arrow that shows you where to go next. If the turns come closely together, you will two separate arrows. Moreover, the nüvi 780 has the text-to-speech feature so that you are able to hear the street names.
GPS makers have used a wide variety of mounting systems. The higher-end models of Garmin like the nüvi 780 uses the very best. When placed on the windshield, you have a cradle that can be mounted with a suction cup. You can pop the GPS in and out with just the press of a button. When you remove it from its cradle, it automatically saves your last position so that you can take it out with you. As you walk around and find your way back, the memory guides you to your way back your parking spot.
You can also pair it with your phone via the Bluetooth. Now, calling and driving can be done simultaneously. All you need to do is get the optional microphone so you can make and receive calls with the help of your car’s speakers and the touch-screen that becomes your dial pad. Plus, because it is linked to your phone, the memory is reflected on its screen as well. Easy does it with the new nüvi 780.
