The ease with which you enter a location / POI / etc. is superior to all competition. I went looking for a navigation system for my in-laws who like to make day trips. I went to a large electronics store to see which navigation system was the easiest to get to a certain location. I was completely surprised by the enormous difference in ease of use. Where I was often out within half a minute with the Garmin, with the competition I often spent more than a minute entering the same location, even though I had no experience with Garmin at all, but with the competitor! So ease of use a ten! Updating via WiFi is very slow and is accompanied by many so-called warnings that it does not work. Just let that process go, it's going to be just fine. Updating via PC or laptop, on the other hand, is very good and fast. The screen is very reflective. I solved this by applying an anti-reflective foil. I don't like the map colors and this could be much better. The line you have to follow is pink, while the main roads are orange ...... This sometimes means that you have to look twice whether you have to go left or right when you arrive on an orange road with your pink line. The map colors menu has, for me at least, no nice setting, because with one setting the day colors are nice, but the evening colors are terrible. What I also find a point of attention is the fact that the plug does not go into the socket, but into the unit itself. You now have to connect the plug every time you get into the car before clicking the unit into place. When getting out, first disconnect the unit and then remove the plug. With my previous navigation, the unit simply got its power through the foot, so clicking in or taking it out was enough. So this could be better as far as I'm concerned. The navigation itself is just fine with a clear interface and very clear spoken instructions. Despite the negatives, I also bought one for myself, because this unit is not perfect, but clearly more user-friendly than the competition.

You regularly need a GPS and this Garmin DriveSmart 51 LMT-D Europe makes it very easy to get to the right place/number even in the dark. The speed display also makes driving to and from the destination considerably easier.
