Protection worth the moneyMay 18, 2008 Don Brockett(near Motown (MI)) 56 out of 56 found this review helpful
My Nuvi 760 is fairly pricey, so worth protecting. The case does a good job though I'd be a bit concerned about dropping it so a corner hits a hard surface (not going to test to see if my concern is valid). It slides in easily and stays shut securely. The person on here who complained the switch was moved by the casemust have been using it backwards (there's a well done relief for the switch if the Nuvi is inserted properly). Product construction quality and appearance is good -- not unsightly in any setting. A small improvement might have been to include an ID holder so if accidently left somewhere, the owner could easily be found.
One of the nicest manufacturer cases I have seenJune 20, 2008 S. Lionel(NH USA) 49 out of 49 found this review helpful
I had already purchased a Lowepro camera case to protect my Nuvi 760 - it works, but is awfully bulky. I was intrigued by the Garmin case which I had not run across before and I took a chance on ordering it. I'm glad I did, the case is one of the best I have ever seen of manufacturer-sold cases, most of which are pretty shabby. The 760 slides nicely and firmly into the sleeve with the power switch and headphone jack accessible when closed. When open, the screen is fully visible.
The flap holds securely with two magnets and there is a belt-loop on the back, though why, I don't know.
I am particularly pleased by the protection this case offers - the edges and corners are rigid and spaced out a bit from the Nuvi and the front and back are also well-protected.
Well ProtectedJune 23, 2008 ThomasN(Houston, TX) 27 out of 27 found this review helpful
My first impression of this case was that it's kinda bulky, compared to the other Garmin case. But after observing how my 5-year-old daughter likes to play with the MP3 feature on the Nuvi 760, I' feel more at ease knowing that this cover will do a better job at protecting the unit than the other Garmin case (which acts only as a housing). It's well designed and has pretty good leather material for the price.
7/5/08 - WARNING!! Beware if you buy the other Garmin case. The Nuvi 660 comes with that other case and my brother just had his Nuvi slipped right out of the case, causing the screen to crack. Apparently, the case had stretched over time and no longer holds a good grip. That sucks!!
Worth the Few Dollars MoreJuly 18, 2008 Grandmom(Frankfort, KY) 21 out of 22 found this review helpful
This case is definitely worth the few dollars more than what you would pay for the other thin sleeve. It does add a little more bulk, but I feel good about that as I shove the thing down into my already overstuffed bag. It's very well made, and you don't have to remove the unit from the case to use it (you would have to remove it to mount it though). The touch screen and on/off slider are easily accessible while in the case. I agree with another reviewer, it would be nice to have a slot for a business card, but that's certainly not a deal breaker. I would definitely recommend this case for the Nuvi 750.
