User Ratings and Reviews

2 Stars Poor design makes this carrying case a bad buy
While this carrying case appears to be well constructed, its side panels are too tall for a 760. Had someone actually pushed a Nuvi into the original design, they would have either reduced the height of the side panels or cut slots in them to allow for the on/off slide switch. You have to be very careful when inserting the GPS into the case that the side panel doesn’t catch the on/off switch and turn the GPS on. If I had it to do over, I’d buy a zippered camera case from Wal-Mart.

1 Star Doesn’t fit Nuvi 500/550
Contrary to what it indicates in the listing, this case does NOT fit a nuvi 500/550. The 500/550 are too thick to fit into this case.

5 Stars great
Fit is perfect. you need this to travel so the GPS is safe ,Great product

5 Stars Handy little carrying case
I bought this for my husband, along with a Garmin Nuvi and a friction dashboard mount. He loves everything, and finds this little leather case so handy to slip the Garmin in and pop in his briefcase. I bought this as a package along with the Garmin and the mount…good purchase. I highly recommend this case.

1 Star carrying case
The carrying case is not worth the money. If the gps was bought for a car you’ll probably never use it.

Crafted with fine leather, this stylish and durable case will keep your GPS device protected and secure. Soft interior lining provides additional protection while a magnetic closure provides easy access.

4 Stars Very sleek case
This case is excellent; it protects my GPS device very well. It is perfect for my Garmin 265 in depth, but it is a little wider than my unit on the sides — not enough to make it less secure though.

The magnetic flap holds well but can be opened one-handed very easily. The inside material is soft and there’s no exposed fasteners or seams to scratch the GPS.

The only thing I wish this had (and caused me to dock a star) is a belt clip of some sort (removable would be even better). The funcionality of this case is somewhat limited by the lack of that feature. It requires you to slide the case into a pocket or purse, and it’s just a little too big to do that comfortably.

4 Stars Nice case
Case is very nice. Just as advertised, though a little over-sized for my small GPS unit.

5 Stars Navigon 3.5-Inch Premium Leather Case
I used the case weekly for 3 months so far and it still looks like new.

I have a Navigon 2120, which is physically identical to the 2100 model (the former just has both Canadian+US maps loaded in software).

I’m a minimalist and I like things small, fortunately my GPS device fits in this case snugly. There is no rattle or movement (unless you shake the case hard). The case feels sturdy too. It feels good not to have to worry about scratching the GPS while storing it in the dashboard. For 12 USD or less you can’t go wrong.

4 Stars It serves its purpose
it is ok since it is more protective than the case that comes with the Garmin, however, since I leave the Garmin in the car, I havent had much use for it.

3 Stars Case is too big for the Garmin Nuvi 360
Contrary to the written description, the Garmin Nuvi 360 does not fit this case. The case is far to big – the gps swims in it. Otherwise, it appears to be a nice case.
