Garmin’s automotive navigation products have always had a business-oriented design, which also aligns perfectly with the brand’s premium image. As a newly released high-end product, the nüvi3590 takes luxury to the next level. Starting with its appearance, the classic color scheme, refined craftsmanship, and delicate texture all convey the product’s high-end quality.
The nüvi3590 features a 5-inch touchscreen with 800x480 HD resolution, delivering clearer visuals and better detail recognition. Especially when browsing the web, watching movies, viewing photos, reading eBooks, or playing games, the screen’s visual performance is notably more refined.
As a navigator equipped with the Android 4.0 operating system, the nüvi3590 offers an experience similar to that of an Android tablet. It comes with built-in access to the Android Market, allowing users to download desired apps wirelessly via Wi-Fi. Drivers can use it to listen to music, watch videos, surf the internet, and play games, just like using a tablet.
The nüvi3590 provides the Garmin Download Center and supports automatic registration, enabling users to directly download Garmin’s free software and services — such as Points of Interest collections, Easy Travel, and vehicle icons — without needing to log in to the Garmin official website via a computer. Additionally, the nüvi3590 offers Bluetooth hands-free calling. When receiving a call while driving, users can answer through the navigator’s hands-free function, truly keeping both hands on the wheel and ensuring driving safety.
The nüvi3590 comes with a licensed navigation map from NavInfo, and supports permanent free map updates. It features 3D terrain simulation navigation and 360-degree building landmark displays, along with rich 3D real-scene images for complex intersections, delivering a comprehensive, immersive, three-dimensional effect that makes users feel as if they’re truly part of the surroundings. Moreover, the nüvi3590 includes fixed speed camera alerts, displaying countdown distances to help drivers know exactly how many meters remain before reaching a camera so they can slow down in advance and avoid being caught.
Users can search for nearby points of interest such as hotels, supermarkets, ATMs, parking lots, gas stations, and restaurants using the nüvi3590, and save frequently used ones in “My Favorites.” This way, even when visiting unfamiliar places, users can quickly get acquainted with their surroundings. If you forget where you parked your car, the nüvi3590’s automatic last-parking-location recording feature can help you locate your vehicle.
The nüvi3590 supports voice command control, allowing users to speak to the GPS, tell it where they want to go, and have it search for the destination and navigate there — truly freeing the driver’s hands and ensuring safer travel.
The nüvi3590 supports optional dash cam integration, turning it into a navigation and recording all-in-one GPS device. In case of a traffic incident, recorded footage can be accessed to reconstruct the event and prove innocence.
The nüvi3590 supports segmented and loop recording functions. Once the overwrite mode is enabled, it switches to loop recording, where the newest video files overwrite the oldest ones, ensuring the nüvi3590 continuously records events during your journey.
When purchasing a dash cam, the nüvi3590 comes with management software called PC Tool — a dedicated program for viewing recorded video files. Through a computer, users can view video clips, each displaying time, date, coordinates, speed, and other data. Users can also view their driving route on an electronic map, making it a highly useful tool.
