Garmin Nuvi 850

When the high end Nuvi 880 was released, it was speculated that Garmin would come out with the Nuvi 860, which would have came with a little less features than the 880. However, that fell through and now Garmin has recently announced the Nuvi 850, which is the downgrade of the 880. One of the main features that will be missing is the lack of hands free calling via Bluetooth. Also, it won’t come with a 3 month free trial of MSN Direct.

However, the Nuvi 850 will still come with many notable features including voice recognition, FM traffic updates, MSN Direct, text-to-speech, even a car locater.The Garmin Nuvi 850 is available on Amazon for pre-order, and it costs $800.
