The editors didn't like
Weak speaker. Near-field mapping. Confusing range
Too many 3D images. Underwhelming aesthetics
Cluttering the screen with 3D landmarks doesn’t actually make urban driving any easier

A decent enough mid-range unit thanks to its comprehensive new Euro maps, but the Garmin’s graphical gimmicks can actually make driving more difficult. Shop around for the previous 760t model to save yourself 50 quid - and some navigational headache...
Old-fashioned design; fiddly FM transmitter set-up; distracting motorway lane guidance and 3D landmarks; sluggish reroute calculations; occasionally insufficient volume
Appearance-wise, the Garmin nuvi 765T is almost identical to last year's nuvi 760. It's only when you look beneath the surface that you can see where modern features have been included, such as the motorway lane guidance, road-speed warnings, 3D landm...

Abstract: With so many GPS receivers on the market, one can become quite overwhelmed when trying to make a decision when shopping for navigational help. Just how much do you need from the device, and what do you want it to do for you? How much do you want to spe...

FM traffic doesnt work without the power cord and cradle, slightly limiting vehicle-to-vehicle portability.
The Garmin Nuvi 765T packs a number of useful features into an easy-to-use package and its ad-supported traffic updates are quite useful--plus, the ads themselves are quite unobtrusive.
