User Reviews about Magellan RoadMate 760 Portable GPS Navigator
The unit functions OK but the antenna is not sufficient. An external antenna does the job and I now get a good signal. The cost of the antenna about $20.00 to $24.00 if bought from anyone but Magellan.
The maps are quite bad and the updates are expensive. However, they have come down a bit. Now about $60.00 and from what I understand, the installation is difficult and may result in a dead unit. Sending it for repair, is another cost which I do not know what that would cost. I can buy a new Garmin with a larger screen for about $120.00.
Given this, I would not recommend this unit to anyone. -- Maps and Map Updates
I brought this navigator a few years back and it still works fine. Function wise, it is OK! My only complaint is the size. Why make it so clumsy? Otherwise, Magellan is a good brand to have. -- It's OK!
I love my magellan 760 roadmate. I have had it for almost three years now and it has never let me down. The screen is easy to read, and the buttons are easy to use. There are so many features on here so you get a lot for the dollar. My only problem is that I have lost my antenna, and I can't find one anywhere, so I was forced to by an external high performance antenna. I can honestly say that when I have been to a new town that i'm not familiar with my 760 has never let me down. I have had those moments where i didn't know anything about where i was going and had to rely solely on my 760 and it was a success each and every time. My only drawback is that I wish it had built in traffic link, and bluetooth. Other than those this is a flawless unit. -- what a joy to have
