Amazon.com Product Description
The Garmin nüvi 360 GPS Navigator and Personal Travel Assistant is a GPS navigator, personal translator, multi-media entertainer and tour guide all wrapped into one. In addition to all the advanced features of the Garmin nüvi 350 -- including automatic routing, turn-by-turn voice directions, an MP3 player and audio book player, JPEG picture viewer, and much more -- this pocket-sized personal travel assistant comes with hands-free Bluetooth wireless technology, making it the hands-down go-anywhere travel companion.

The nüvi 360 comes with hands-free bluetooth wireles technology. See side view.


Browse your stored pictures with an easy-to-use JPEG viewer.


The device sports a handy MP3 player, letting you play songs stored on SD memory cards.
Make Hands-Free Calls
The nüvi 360 integrates wireless technology with a microphone and speaker that lets you make hands-free mobile phone calls using your compatible Bluetooth-enabled phone. Simply dial numbers with the nüvi's touch screen keypad to place a call, and to answer calls, just tap the screen and speak directly into its built-in microphone.

In addition, you can easily look-up and dial numbers from your personalized phone book or from your phone's call history log. Don't know the phone number for your destination? Simply find and dial it from nüvi's database of more than six million points of interest -- including hotels, restaurants, stores, and attractions.

Navigation and Entertainment with Ease
For starters, the nüvi 360 includes a high-sensitivity integrated GPS receiver that offers exceptional performance and reception. The unit's flip-up antenna includes an MCX-type connector for optional external GPS antenna connection. Preloaded software features maps of Europe or North America, and it includes automatic routing, 2D or 3D map perspective, turn-by-turn voice directions that speak street names, and a fingertip touch screen interface -- making navigation as easy as it gets.

But navigation is just the beginning. Like the nüvi 350, the nüvi 360 also includes many entertainment and travel tools including an MP3 player, audio book player, JPEG picture viewer, travel alarm, and currency converters.

The nüvi 360 features a bright, 2.8 x 2.1-inch TFT display with white backlight for easy readability. At 3.87 x 2.91 x 0.87-inches (WxHxD) and just 5.1 ounces, the unit is small enough to be placed on the dashboard with the included suction mount, or into your pocket for easy transportability. The unit also features Garmin Lock -- an advanced anti-theft feature that disables the unit from performing any functions until you type in a specific four-digit PIN or take the unit to a predetermined location. A built-in lithium ion battery will give you up to eight hours of power, and an included 12/24 volt adapter cable will let you run the navigator off your vehicle's power. An AC battery charger is also included.

A built-in Travel Kit that includes sample MP3s and audio books will get you started with entertainment, and with the unit's SD memory card expansion slot you can add optional software, such as language and travel guides. A USB port is also included for loading and updating data.

What's in the Box
Gamin nüvi 360, Preloaded City Navigator NT North America or Europe (full coverage), vehicle suction cup mount, AC charger, 12/24 volt adapter cable, dashboard disk, USB interface cable, carrying case, owner's manual, and quick reference guide.

3 out of 5 stars nuvi 3.5 review   November 23, 2008
R. I. Hinkson (PA)
The brand is great and I trust it a lot. This model has lower volume than a lot others. Not sure what that flab at the back is for. There is no volume scorll along the side like the ol' school ones. I gave my girl this one because it calls the street names, but it whispers even at max volume.


4 out of 5 stars Big Help   November 23, 2008
Laura Stoltz
This model is a great combination of good price and user friendliness. It comes in handy more than I would have expected, and I love having it around. The quality is very good-no need to buy a really expensive model. It tells you where you need to go. The first time I used it, though, I was on some new streets that it didn't have programmed on it, yet. That has been the only problem with it so far, but I love it.


4 out of 5 stars Useful GPS but could not figure out..how to mount   November 22, 2008
Mother (Fremont, CA USA)
We are satisfied with the GPS. Good deal for the price!
But could not mount yet, with the parts got in package.
The ball of suction cup unit does not fit in the circular slot at all.
I dont know if we are missing anything?
If anybody could mount this unit, please help.



5 out of 5 stars Nuvi 360: Why it is one of the top five navigators?   November 19, 2008
A. Garg (Philadelphia, PA)
This is the second Nuvi 360 that I've bought in one year; and, despite the time difference, I couldn't find more bang for my buck than this model.
1. Price on Amazon had dropped from $320.00 to $199.99.
2. Only Garmin at this price with Bluetooth Connectivity.
3. Speaks Street names and warns you of an upcoming turn twice.
4. Finds many retail stores; and, with a BT enabled phone allows you to find not only the location, but also call the store directly from the unit.
5. Screen real estate is large enough to see details, yet still the unit fits in your pocket.

With so many navigators out there, its hard to figure out which one is best. For my money, this Garmin Nuvi has all the features one needs to be safe (and on time) when driving both familiar and unfamiliar roads.



5 out of 5 stars Garmin Nuvi 360 Review   November 17, 2008
Abhinav Praneet (Cincinnati, OH USA)
Garmin nüvi 360 3.5-Inch Portable GPS Navigator with Bluetooth and Text-to-Speech

This GPS navigator is a wonderful product and a value for money buy. Even though most new cars come equipped with a GPS navigator, this one is still worth having. Its handy, with all necessary GPS navigator functions like Favorite Locations, Text-to-speech and wide array of search points.

It comes with all peripherals needed like the 12/24 volt car charger, USB charger and a nice case.

All in all highly recommended for anyone looking for a quality product in ecomomical price range. Amazon is the place to buy your new Garmin nuvi!
