About Rich Owings
I am thinking about the purchase of the Garmin 880 when it becomes available soon.
Is it likely to be worth the additional cost?
What are the feature and product comparison between the 770 and the 880?
When will it be available?
What will be the cost?
What are the best places to purchase it from?
Thanks
The 880 is due sometime in the next couple of months. TigerGPS is saying late May. Unlike the nuvi 770, it will include voice recognition, but I don’t think it will include the 770’s maps of Europe. List price is $1071, discounts unknown at this time. If they choose to carry it, GPSNow.com often has the best price when new models first come out.
Hi
First off, great review!! Great Site too!!
I am torn between the Nuvi 770 and the TomTom 920/930 and I cant find a good objective comparisson.
Based on your experience would you recommend either one over the other?
Both the TT920 and Nuvi 770 are pretty close in price but I am leaning towards the 770.
thanks
Adam
Adam,
Based on what I know now, I’d go with the nuvi. I’ll be reviewing the TomTom 730, but won’t get it posted for several weeks. In the meanwhile, this may help…

Thanks for that Rich,
I think you just helped me make my choice!
Nuvi 770 is approx €90 cheaper here than the TT730 and 930 so that further does it for me!
I have a brand new garmin nuvi 350 bought a week ago lost the receit so I want to sell but I am not sure what the cheapest price in sotre is so I can sell it at a reasonable price is still in bow never used I dont really need it. so what do you think would be a reasonable price to sell it for..
No idea. Look online.
Hi,
I am trying to decide between the nuvi 770 and the 775t. Is the lane assist and new satellite fixing and routing worth the extra money for the 775t?
I think that traffic would be nice but it’s not as important to me. The 770 is appealing because it is about $300 less and has a longer battery life.
I’m going to primarily use this for traveling, including trips to europe, I know my way around my city pretty well.
What are your thoughts?
thanks, Jess
I found the lane assist feature very helpful, but it’s hard to justify $300 just for that. Multi-destination routing is present on both.
