Test date: October 2, 2009

The Garmin nüvi 1340T is identical to the Garmin nüvi 1390T that we tested.  This model is different in two ways:
  • it has maps for 22 countries in Europe, unlike 33 on the 1390T
  • there's no Bluetooth hands-free mode
The design is otherwise identical, apart from the colour of the body which is now finished in a grey matte, rather than the glossy black of the 1390T.
Pluses

-

Clear, efficient navigation

-

Good at locating satellites

-

Small and well-finished

-

Large matte screen

-

Bluetooth hands-free mode

Minuses

-

Autocorrection of addresses not very useful

-

Handling of stops en route

-

Suction mount too traditional

-

Not many options to configure route chosen

-

No FM transmitter

The Garmin nüvi 1390T won't revolutionise the world of GPS, but it's simple to use and does its job well. We would, though, have preferred more options and the chance to adjust more settings.
