First Sat Nav - No Worries,
By
This review is from: Garmin Nuvi 1340 Widescreen Sat Nav with UK & Western Europe (22 Countries) (Electronics)
This is the first sat nav I have ever bought, so I spent quite a bit of time reading reviews and talking to friends with sat navs.
I've read some negative reviews about the nuvi 1340, but decided to take the plunge and so far - five days in - I haven't been disappointed. It is very easy to use. The screen is big and clear, the instructions concise and easy to understand. It updates and recalculates routes, when I have purposefully gone the wrong way, very quickly. There are other useful functions on there, like the points of interest, and the 'where am i' function would be very useful in an emergency. Safety camera alerts are a Godsend. I appreciate that different people have different expectations, but I'm quite demanding and wouldn't waste my money on a pile of tosh, so I can recommend this sat nav. ***Update*** I've had it for about five months now and still think that it is fantastic. It has got me around the UK and Europe with no problems at all. It was great for finding a petrol station in the middle of France when I needed one on the hurry up, for finding a cashpoint when driving around rural England and for finding a Thai restaurant in Bournemouth when we decided what we wanted to eat on a whim. Ten minutes and we were there. What's more, all that driving and no points on my licence thanks to the camera alerts. This sat nav is a very, very useful piece of kit.

Does what it says on the box,
By
This review is from: Garmin Nuvi 1340 Widescreen Sat Nav with UK & Western Europe (22 Countries) (Electronics)
FOR:- As the title suggests, it does what its supposed to. But what really impressed me
was how quickly it re-routes you should you need to take a diversion. I have borrowed an older model Gamin from a friend from time to time but this cerainly does the trick. AGAINT:- The only small complaint, even though it has a reasonable sized screen, is that the qwerty touch screen can be a little fiddly to hit the right letter / key at times. This could be made better if a stylus was included, the top of a pen did the trick for me. OVERALL:- I still give it a 5***** rating

Garmin Nuvi 1340 Sat-Nav,
By
This review is from: Garmin Nuvi 1340 Widescreen Sat Nav with UK & Western Europe (22 Countries) (Electronics)
Widescreen, clear map, easy to use and the audio instructions are clear, and these not only tell you which way to turn, but also the name of the road you are turning into. Speed camera notifications, the speed limit you are in and the actual speed indications are useful. If you know the route and don't want the audio instructions, you can just go to the MAP and it will show your car on the route and still give speed camera warnings. However, it is not perfect. For instance, it sometimes tells you to turn right but in fact you need to follow the road round the bend (the "straight on" road is actually a left turn). Also, the text which temporarily pops up when the speed camera chimes go off (double ding) is rather small. This text is useful in that it advises whether a fixed or average speed camera is looming, or a mobile camera zone. In this zone, a single ding sounds every few seconds if you are doing exactly the limit (or over). In my view it should not sound at the legal limit. Also, it would be useful to have a Mute "button" on the map screen for cases where you know most of the route but need help near the end. However, despite these minor foibles I am very pleased with the product.
