Garmin nuvi 250

The main complaint GPSMagazine.com has about the Garmin nuvi 250 -- that it is pricey -- is no longer true, as the price has fallen since this review was written. However, this road test of the nuvi 250 is still comprehensive, thoroughly analyzing the unit's features -- and lack thereof -- and recommending some alternatives for budget shoppers who would prefer more features or a widescreen display.

GPS blogger Scott Martin has dropped the Garmin nuvi 250 from his latest holiday gift guide in favor of newer entry-level Garmins. However, his thorough test and analysis of the nuvi 250 is still valuable for shoppers considering this unit -- especially his discussion of widescreens versus small screens.

The Garmin nuvi 250 is GPS blogger Rich Owings' alternative pick for a budget auto GPS in his buyer's guide. Although some of the entries in Owings' buyer's guide link to his own detailed road test results, the nuvi 250 page includes only a brief description of the unit's features and links to reviews from outside sources.
