I bought this a little over a month ago to replace my Garmin nuvi 265w that I had for over 12 years.

Real Maps

The maps displayed are more like the traditional maps we all are used to reading.
The screen selections respond better than ever to one's finger pad pressure.

I've had factory installed Garmin products in my previously owned autos. Now, in my new auto without GPS, i was pleased to find free-standing Garmin GPS products available. The latest software updates are amazing. I used this Garmin 53 to drive from Canada to Florida and back. Friggin' amazing device!

Love the Red Light Camera info

I have been a loyal Garmin user (prefer it over the indash map!) for many years. The addition of the Red Light Camera notification is amazing!!! Good to know that there are cameras ahead of me. The one thing I'd like to see now is traffic signal indicators - it really helps to know that my turn is coming up within "so many" traffic lights!

Liking it

I still am looking at all the features I used it once in my van it seems to work pretty good some of the things that came with it don't work because I don't have Bluetooth in my van but I do have internet. Trying to figure out how to use all the little features

Surprise feature for me
on February 26, 2024

While driving across country my Garmin Drive 53 prompted me to take a break. What a wonderful feature. I like the clarity of the screen and the other expected features but as I have gotten older the breaks are more and more important.

Trouble with Travel

Although, I like many of the features and the screen, I haven't been able to get the traffic alert to work, even when I tried in a large city (Charleston, SC).
