Garmin Nuvi Status & Support As of June 2018 Garmin has discontinued many Nüvi models but some are still availabl and support is still available for them.

Garmin Nuvi Models — How It Works!!

Ongoing Utilization: While some Nüvi designs have been stopped, different more established models remain to be used like the Nüvi 550 and other people on eBay. Basic navigation works fine from user reports12.

Ongoing Support: Garmin will continue to support these now discontinued models including customer service and repairs. But, software updates for infinitely can not be ensured34

Discontinued Models Overview

Discontinued list: The Nüvi 350, 360 and 670 are officially discontinued models but they continue to show up on many e-commerce websites. This family of devices are typically stocked with fundamental amenities as multi-point routing and speed limit displays, which suffices for tech-resistant users12.

Effect to Features: And for some features like life.htmapping, they would no longer be updated but all the important functions on these devices are still obtainable. The result is basic navigation functions remain dependable for normal usage3.

Experience & Screening

Bottom Line: Many wearables and smart home devices are practical, but most people have no use for them beyond some basic navigation features that the older Nüvi models do just fine. Nonetheless, the longevity of map updates and software support with evolving technological advancement is a cause for alarm34.

The Older Models: Garmin is finally ending support for a few models and recommending that users intending to lean on up-to-date maps and robust feature sets look into upgrading. Even so, most people who just need basic navigation will be able to keep their existing devices for a while without much trouble23.

I guess ultimately — despite the discontinuation of a bunch of Nüvi models — there are a number that continue to operate and be supported. It is for the users to decide if an upgrade is really needed when comparing against what their current devices do.
