Product Description
Packed with features at a price that fits any budget, nüvi 265T takes you there with preloaded maps and turn-by-turn directions that call out streets by name. It adds lifetime traffic and hands-free calling to the popular nüvi 255, simplifying life on the go. Like the rest of the nüvi 205-series, this portable navigator is priced right and ultra-easy to use.
Get Turn-by-Turn Directions
nüvi 265T's intuitive interface greets you with two simple questions: "Where to?" and "View Map." Touch the color screen to easily look up addresses and services and get voice-prompted, turn-by-turn directions that speak street names to your destination. It comes preloaded with detailed City Navigator® NT street maps, over 6 million points of interest (POIs), 2-D or 3-D maps and smooth map updates as you navigate. Its digital elevation maps show you shaded contours at higher zoom levels, giving you a big picture of the surrounding terrain. In addition, nüvi 265T accepts custom points of interest (POIs), such as school zones and safety cameras and lets you set proximity alerts to warn you of upcoming POIs. With HotFix™ satellite prediction, nüvi calculates your position faster to get you there quicker.
Make Hands-free Calls
For hands-free calling, nüvi 265T integrates Bluetooth® wireless technology with a built-in microphone and speaker. Just pair it with your compatible Bluetooth phone and talk hands-free through the 265T while staying focused on the road. Simply dial numbers with nüvi's touchscreen keypad to make a call. To answer calls, just tap the screen and speak into its built-in microphone. Enjoy convenient one-touch dialing for contacts and points of interest.
Avoid Traffic Tie-ups
Steer clear of traffic with nüvi 265T's integrated FM traffic receiver. Receive alerts about traffic delays and road construction that lie ahead on your route. Next, simply touch nüvi's

 I love this Garmin GPS September 2, 2010
K. A. Moore
This is an excellent product for the price. I feared the screen was too small, but it's fine. The voice commands tell me the street name, give me the distance to the next turn, and repeat itself just before the turn. Excellent product, I highly recommend it!
Excellent!! September 1, 2010
WRR (West Caldwell, NJ United States)
A great GPS at a great price. I paid $118 and a week later it was over $150!(probably because it's discontinued). Small & light with good window suction. Anyone who has used a GPS knows they are not perfect, and this one is no different. I think Garmin is a top brand and would recommend it. I use mine primarily in a truck and the only complaint I have is that the volume could be louder. No problems otherwise.
Good but not great August 30, 2010

We owned one of these devices previously, but it was stolen so we decided to replace it, and chose the same model we had before. The only real problem came during installation/setup. Garmin gives a free map upgrade (which is great, they didn't use to, and you got a navigator maps a few years old - out of the box) but the upgrade didn't work on our Vista 64bit machine. I had to take the device down to my work pc which runs XP 32bit to get the maps to install correctly.
The accuracy is always been a bit soft, sometimes it says something is on the right side of the street, when its on the left, etc. But nothing too bad. It almost got us lost up on the mountains once with us low on gas, but we were able to change our destination from some obscure location in the mountains, to a small town near by to get gas and to ask for directions from a local.
But overall it works well, the text to speech is pretty good, though it does sometimes change its pronunciation from time to time. Typically as we get closer the pronunciation becomes more accurate.
This was rated as a "best buy" by consumer reports, and I'd agree with that. For the money it is a good device.
