The Garmin DriveAssist 50LMT is a solid piece of technology that functions as a combination GPS, dash camera and a driver assistance (ADAS) system. That said, it does have a few important limitations that you should be aware of. Here's a summary of the positives and negatives pertaining to this device: Positives: 1) Price and value: I paid $99 for a refurbished unit, and at this price, I think it's a fantastic value. Although, at the original $299 asking price, I'm not sure I would have purchased it. 2) The unit is well made, and simple to set up. 3) The GPS provides clear, simple voice directions, the screen is bright and easy to follow (though of very low resolution for 2018). 4) The dashcam video is generally pretty good quality; although it gets somewhat marginal at night because of the small size of the lens. 5) The ADAS features really do work: the forward collision, lane departure warning and moving traffic warnings function as described. The unit also warns you of speed limit changes, red light cameras and when you are driving the wrong way (though see below on that last point). 6) You can operate the unit by voice command in addition to pressing options on the screen. Negatives: 1) The GPS sometimes makes mistakes and is missing some locations (e.g. it didn't know about a CVS pharmacy in Savannah, GA even though that business has been there for years). It also told me I was driving the wrong way down a street at one point (even though I wasn't) and took me on a mile long "side trip" rather than telling me to execute a perfectly legal U turn. 2) The unit takes quite awhile to calculate routes. 3) The battery life is really short (less than 30 minutes): this unit is only designed to function plugged into your car. 4) Some major US cities (like Savannah, GA) have no traffic antennas, so you won't be able to get live traffic updates. 5) The ADAS system gives false positives sometimes, especially if the sensitivity is set to "high". 6) At night time, and in the rain, the ADAS system really doesn't work reliably (even though this is arguably, when you might need it most). 7) The supplied suction cup mount really doesn't hold very well. All-in-all, I recommend this unit. Based on my readings of other reviews, most ADAS systems in stand alone dashcams are completely useless, whereas while this system makes the occasional mistake, but it actually does work (in some ways it works BETTER than the system in my $60K BMW ... that system warns SO late that metal is already crumpling by the time the alarms go off! I'm exaggerating, but only slightly). The GPS works fine, but honestly, no better than the free Google Maps app on my smart phone. The dash camera records in full HD quality, and during the day the video looks fine, but because the lens and sensor are so small, in marginal light it looks worse than the video from some $50 stand alone dashcam units. If you ONLY need a dashcam or ONLY need a GPS, you probably shouldn't buy the Garmin DriveAssist; however, if you want both of these functions in one machine, and you're curious about "smart" driver assistance / collision avoidance systems, and you want to test one out for very little money, I think you'll be happy with your purchase.Vollständige Rezension lesen

👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎 I’m sure that I am leaving out a lot of other problems but this is what I found so far...... I’ve been taking the same route for years with my old Garmin and it takes me 10 minutes faster on the fastest route but this one cannot figure out the fastest route and it is set on the correct setting it is not ME.... No more mute on front screen, no choice of detouring by Road or miles Cannot take me the fastest route like my old Garmin. Has a camera, one step forward and 3 steps back! IDIOTS! , Not engineers as they call them. I had a 2555 and that is five-year-old technology which it looks I’m going to have to stick with for now. I was unable to speak to anybody higher up to get any answers. I was told that if I didn’t like it, I could apply for a job and work in Kansas. I thought this thing was the greatest thing ever and three days later I’m realizing that it’s a piece of back engineered garbage! And worse yet I find out that the 51 model does not have traffic on it any longer you have to use it in conjunction with your phone! LOL 😂 If I get a phone call, I used to be able to just tap mute. it took me half a second, now I have to push and go into 3 screens or like the “nice man from Garmin“ told me, I can say VOICE COMMAND and then I can say VOLUME, and then I can say MUTE! There are things like animal alerts and curve alerts which even though I have turned off, it is the audible which is turned off not the visual, so I constantly keep on having the screen flashing about curves and animals which is a DISTRACTION! I could see if dead man’s curve is coming, but these are just normal Bends in the road which is a bunch of bullshit! TERRIBLE PRODUCT! You’ve really outdone yourself this time Garmin! JERKS! 👎👎👎👎👎👎👎Vollständige Rezension lesen

I love this gps system! All my car was missing was Bluetooth and navigation... now it has that plus lane departure assist, live traffic updates, school zone warnings and beeps if I go over the speed limit(you can toggle these features on and off). Also you can set its wakeup phrase to curse words!!! Haha! Yes I know it’s immature but it was worth it. The screen is crystal clear, the Bluetooth phone calls are crystal clear. I have no issues with it. And it’ll switch between your phone and the Bluetooth seamlessly when you power up the Garmin. I’m happy with it. I highly recommend. And the dash cam is really clear. No sound but that’s fine with me. If you’re considering this model vs another model... pick this one. I didn’t like it attached to my window so I bought a friction mount and a long necked gps mount and I just toss the whole thing on my dash in front of my steering wheel but it’s bent in such a way that it sits right above the vent by the stereo. It’s lower and it still records out the front window perfectly. Then I just move the entire set up instead of unclipping the gps from the mount. That way there’s no reason for thieves to poke around my car!Vollständige Rezension lesen

I've used Garmin mobile products for over a decade, and they always produce a reliable product. This one is no different. I absolutely love the lane departure feature now that it's fine tuned, and the forward collision warning is great. But driving in a metro area like DFW or OKC it goes off every time someone passes you and cut you off by pulling in too soon (which is constantly). I actually acquired this particular model because of it's capabilities to interface with a Garmin rear back up camera on my RV.

Chose this model mainly for the voice command and dash cam features that are included. Four stars for that, missing star because even though it has a larger screen, displays are smaller and difficult to read.

We really like this navigator. I like the way it speaks regarding your next turn, different than our previous Garmins. It is a bit sensitive on the lane wandering. I think that may be adjustable, haven't had time to go through all the manual, which apparently is only online. Garmins are good products, in our experience.

I got this to replace a 6 year old TomTom. Wow !! Can't believe all the features !! Only complaint is it takes hours to download new maps -at least the first time- which is all I have done. Makes driving in unfamiliar areas a whole lot easier and safer. I am really glad I got this one with Drive Assist.

Always had Magellan, my only garmin took my to a dead end where I had to unhook my toad and turn around, took over 30 mins. Too many times the wrong way. This garmin makes me a believer in the Navi. Love the smart feature that speaks my emails and messages

It's a little confusing to use at first, but has great bells and whistles. I like the school warning feature and the display.. Very happy.
