With myTrends, when you save your regular destinations in your "Favorites," your nüvi 3750 will, over time, begin to figure out where you're going even without your telling it! It provides time of arrival and relevant traffic information. So whether you're driving to and from work, or a regularly scheduled weekly event, your nüvi 3750 will help you get there on time.

It realistically displays road signs and junctions on your route, along with arrows that indicate the proper lane for navigation.

 Garmin 3750 junk September 3, 2010
Laura
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
What has happened to Garmin? They have always stood for quality products, until recently. This is one of two Nuvi 3750 GPS that I have purchased and returned. Each of them worked fine for short periods of time, but always felt very hot to the touch--almost too hot to hold. Then, after 2 or 3 hours of use, they first lost the maps, then just quit, sometimes to restart immediately, other times wouldn't start for an hour or so. Very, very disappointed with this product, also the lack of support from Garmin.
 Garmin 3750 - A bit too fragile. . . August 28, 2010
BoltFanger (Los Angeles, CA)
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I bought my Garmin 3750 a month ago through Amazon...and loved it's compact sleek design. The directions it gives seem to make you take either the long routes or the inconvenient routes where you have to cross busy intersections that have no stop lights... but that isn't really my big complaint.
I read someone's review here about how they dropped their Garmin once and it wasn't working after that. I thought maybe this was an isolated case--that it was his bad luck, so I disregarded it and bought it anyway. Well today I dropped the Garmin on the floor for the first time, there's a slight chip on the corner, otherwise, it looked pretty good still. But then I realized that I couldn't turn it on....oh noes! Yes, it was broken. This thing is way too fragile. I'm so mad that it takes a mere 1 drop on the floor to render this expensive 300$ item useless. I've contacted/emailed Garmin about this but I didn't get a response back yet. Their website says to wait 3 days for a response. -_-

2 out of 3 found this review helpful
We were all excited when we got our GPS but quickly grew dissilusioned. This GPS loses satellite reception at all times. First day we were using it, it started to recalculate our route all of a sudden, even though we had not failed following its directions! So we found ourselves in the middle of an unknown area and the GPS kept recalculating! Also, the maps are not that accurate. When visiting the Berkshires we asked it to take us to Mt. Greylock and indicated an unpaved restricted access road, instead of the main paved road that leads straight to the park visitors center. We are so thankful we have an Iphone. I will never leave home with this GPS only. I DEEPLY REGRET BUYING THIS PRODUCT. It looks amazing, the screen is great but it fails to do what it is meant to.
 thoughts on a week-old unit August 23, 2010
Raleigh Reviewer
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This is the first GPS unit that I have owned. I have used a very old Garmin in the past briefly, so that is the only comparison that I have.
I initially wanted the 3760 for the lifetime traffic, but I've read how unreliable that it is and that you have to deal with advertisements on the screen - nothing is "free", remember. Anyway, I settled on the 3750 because of the above concerns and it fit my price range better.
After a week of ownership, I am posting my thoughts. I'll update this review if anything changes.
Pros:
- Very intuitive menus. Even a caveman can operate it.
Cons:
- The built in speaker is weak, but it gets slightly better (louder) when using the Garmin mount that has it's own built in speaker. Then again, I've got the volume at 100% just so that I can hear the voice on a hot summer day in my car with the a/c fan crankin'.
- The touch screen can be too sensitive at times. At others, I have to "mash" my finger into the screen in order to get the display to accept a change in function. Sometimes, I can see the button on the screen "flash" as if it has registered the push of the button, but nothing happens until I hit it again. It makes me wonder if I should return this. I am thinking that a clear cover on top of the screen would make the touch feature less sensitive even though it would protect the screen. I'll take my chances.
- This unit is fragile. It could easily slip out of your hand and break. I found a great semi-rigid case that fits perfectly, it's the Lowepro Volta 30.
- Battery life when the screen is on is about one hour. I was disappointed with that. I think that there is a way to turn off the screen when running on internal battery power, it may even be automatic, but my screen never shut off. Maybe that happens in pedestrian mode?
Ideas for improvement:
I'm not sure what the higher end models do with the Bluetooth connectivity, but I'd love for this GPS to broadcast into my Bluetooth earpiece so that the GPS "voice" doesn't disturb anyone else in the car if they might be sleeping. Does anyone know if the other Garmin models do this?
It would also be cool to hear the voice interrupt my radio so that I could listen to music and then hear the GPS directions as they are spoken.
