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.

4 out of 5 stars Garmin 360 Nuvi   July 25, 2008
Always wanted a Garmin since giving my daughter one for Christmas one year. I selected the Nuvi 360 because of price and the fact that not all Garmins speak actual street names. The Nuvi 360 does speak street names. We used it recently on a trip to Philadelphia and New Jersey. Although I don't know how to use all the features yet, the unit performed well. My main complaint is that you can't plug in just a name like "New Jersey Turnpike" and let it take you there. The thing needs an actual address. Although if you get "near" the turnpike and turn it on and plug in your desired address, the unit will recalculate and take you there accurately. I also wish that Garmin would create a feature that where you could just touch the screen and it will give you bearing on where you are at that moment. Sometimes you just want to yell "speak to me!". All in all I really like the Nuvi 360.


4 out of 5 stars Garmin nuvi 360   July 25, 2008
The Garmin nuvi 360 is a great product, it calls out aproaching street names,which is what I wanted. The screen is a little small but is clear and fits my needs,you really can't watch screen while driving,so its not a big deal. For the money it,s ok.


4 out of 5 stars Excellent GPS device   July 24, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I bought this for a Father's Day gift but managed to play around with it some before I gave it away. If you're looking for a reasonably inexpensive NUVI, this is a great buy. You see why Garmin is pretty much regarded as the best in the biz! My only complaint was that I could never get the Bluetooth to stay in sync with either my RAZR phone or my dad's Blackberry. Each time one of the devices was turned off, you'd have to go through the whole process of re-syncing the NUVI with the phone. So basically I paid about 25-bucks extra for a feature (vs. the Nuvi 350) that might not ever be used....because my dad is not tech-savvy enough to do that over and over again. It could be we weren't doing something quite right and troubleshooting the issue could have solved it. But I was hoping it would just work, which was not the case.

All the other features are great....so I might just be buying the Nuvi 350 for myself, and then stick with an earpiece bluetooth device, which you can pick up pretty inexpensively now.



5 out of 5 stars Nuvi 360 is Simple to Use   July 24, 2008
This is my first GPS. After a decent amount of research, I found Garmin received high marks from most people and magazines. This unit is compact (being a Nuvi) and extremely user friendly. I have elderly relatives in the market for a GPS, and am perfectly comfortable in recommending the Garmin Nuvi 360 to them.

If I have any complaint, it's that I was "sure" the 360 spoke street names, which turns out not to be the case. Otherwise, this unit is pretty darned accurate, has a vivid display, easy-to-understand vocab, and seems to be all my family needs in a portable GPS.



5 out of 5 stars Top flight   July 24, 2008
This is all anyone could ask for in a GPS. I bought it because my daughter bought one, demonstrated it to me and recommended it highly. I'm truly happy with it.
