Review: I Was Hesitant, and Now I'm a Believer - When I read the reviews for the Garmin DriveSmart 86, I was hesitant to purchase this 8-inch GPS to replace my older NUVI that began to falter occasionally. There was a minor learning curve during the transition, but I printed the directions and actually read them. I just returned from a 1500+ mile round-trip where this GPS functioned beautifully. The screen resolution and customizability of the features made it enjoyable to use. I received a good, functional product and recommend this one. Review: Garmin has long demonstrated good QC and good product design, and this one's no exception. - Am very pleased with this the latest model. It has been improved from my previous model, which was a Nuvi, but some of the changes have not been improvements in my opinion. The most positive and notable improvements are those to the audible commands. The Garmin responds to them with greater accuracy, performance, and efficiency in that results are sorted by proximity and can ben easily saved and displayed in alphabetical order for future ease in finding. Also, the operator can call request that Garmin search by business name if desired (as I understand it but have not tried that yet). This Garmin version is huge (8") and is easily taken out of view by being placed between the console and dash for easy hiding if dash-mount is a bean-bag base, which makes its being covered out of sight to thwart those who would break glass and grab and run. I recommend spending the extra bucks for this one. ## Features - 6” high-resolution navigator includes map updates of North America - Hands-free calling when paired with your compatible smartphone with BLUETOOTH technology and convenient Garmin voice assist lets you ask for directions to places you want to go - Road trip–ready features include the HISTORY database of notable sites, a U.S. national parks directory, Tripadvisor traveler ratings and millions of Foursquare POIs - Driver alerts for things such as school zones, sharp curves and speed changes help encourage safer driving and increase situational awareness - Access live traffic, fuel prices, parking, weather and smart notifications when you pair this navigator with your compatible smartphone running the Garmin Drive app - With Alexa Built-in (Drivers should focus on driving and only use this function when safe to do so.

Google traffic/POIs, Garmin nav *by P***N on June 24, 2023* I've been using this for over a year, and it's been fantastic. In case this review is appearing in the wrong place (because for some reason, Amazon is grouping reviews for different Garmin devices together), I'm reviewing the Garmin DriveSmart 86. If you think this is your dad's Garmin, you couldn't be more wrong. It merges the best aspects of smartphone navigation (traffic updates, points of interests (POIs)) with the excellent Garmin features. If you don't drive a lot or don't use a GPS a lot, you don't notice the problems with smartphone navigation. But use it enough and you'll notice how much better Garmin is. Do I always think Garmin navigation is always better? No. But on average, I feel 60-70% of the time it's better. Now, if I'm in a heavy traffic situation or if I'm in a very unfamiliar location, I will run both at the same time and then decide based on my prior knowledge of the area and my instincts to determine which one to trust at any given moment. Here's some pros for the Garmin. You don't need any cellular reception in order for the navigation to work. This came in quite handy when I was in areas of poor reception like rural areas. Sure, with smartphones you can download maps but that requires some preplanning. The Garmin is still the best for letting you know ahead of time what lane you should be in which comes in handy when you need to switch multiple lanes multiple times in short succession. You can also have both the map and some text turns at the same time so you can see ahead of time what your turns will be. The 86 has a fast CPU so it doesn't get laggy like older Garmins. It looks great in both vertical and horizontal orientations and for the first time, I feel like the 86 works better in the vertical orientation because of the better viewpoint. The screen is beautiful. The response and touch is great. If you connect the 86 to your smartphone via the Garmin Drive app, you now get all the benefits of the smartphone with realtime traffic (provided by Google I think) and the much bigger database of points of interests. So if you ever thought the Garmin POIs were too small or out of date or if you thought the search engine in the Garmin device was too weak, you can search in the Garmin Drive app and push that location to the Garmin GPS. Same for traffic. Garmin real-time traffic was often too slow to update but now with Garmin Drive, you never miss out on traffic alerts. If it's in Google, you'll find it in Garmin Drive. Of course, if you use Garmin Drive, you will need cellular reception but only while you're searching initially for the location. Once the Garmin is navigating, no cellular needed. The Garmin has so many options on how to pipe the audio. You can separate what type of audio goes through the Garmin and what goes through your car. So if you want phone to go through the car but nav instructions to go to the Garmin, you can. If you want everything to go to the car, you can. If you want phone and music to go to the Garmin but nav instructions to the car, you can. I send nav audio to the Garmin and everything else to the car because I've always hated the up and down volume when smartphone nav sends out nav instructions. You don't have to worry about draining your phone battery. It's easy to use the phone while navigating on the Garmin. The Garmin now uses USB C and the car charging cable also has a USB passthrough if you wanted to charge something else. The only negative (and I don't know if the situation has changed) is that at the time, there was no dashboard mount for the 86. Only the included window mount. The window mount is good but if you don't regularly clean the windshield and the mount, the Garmin will fall off. ## Frequently Bought Together - Garmin DriveSmart 66, 6-inch Car GPS Navigator with Bright, Crisp High-resolution Maps and Garmin Voice Assist - GPS Suction Cup Mount for Garmin [Quick Extension Arm], Replacement GPS Dash Ball Mount Dashboard Windshield Car Holder for Garmin Nuvi Dezl Drive Drivesmart Zumo Driveassist DriveLuxe StreetPilot RV - Garmin Portable Friction Mount - Frustration Free Packaging --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.gr/products/367349608-drivesmart-66-6-inch-car-gps-navigator-with-bright-crisp](https://www.desertcart.gr/products/367349608-drivesmart-66-6-inch-car-gps-navigator-with-bright-crisp) --- *Product available on Desertcart Greece* *Store origin: GR* *Last updated: 2026-10-08*
