Bigger than it looks
bike AmazonBasics Hard Carrying 5 Inch Black
Overall this is a great case to give your gps good protection. The case is more of a stiff case rather than a hard case, but still better than a soft case.
PROS
-looks great and feels well made
-space for the gps and car charger (even with the traffic receiver being built in to the charger)
THINGS I WOULD HAVE LIKED TO SEE
-better divider/gps slot
-----I wish the little slab that held the gps was thicker and higher, thicker so that there was more protection from the charger scratching the screen and taller so it covered the whole screen. I have the screen facing the outside of the case to avoid this, but i would prefer to have the screen facing the inside.
-padding
-----There is really no padding in this case besides the case itself. The case feels tough enough while still having flex to absorb shock, but i would have liked to have seen some padding
Overall a great case, and even though i think some things could be better, for the price its an amazing case that offers good protection for your gps.

Though this case won't protect your GPS from the airlines (recent trip where Delta CRUSHED one of our baggage pieces) it provides some protection, and stores our 1490 (5" display)Garmin with the power/traffic cord in one neat, small container. The power cord with the trafic receiver is quite thick, but fits well within this case, and the case (loaded) fits easly into my camera case (airline carry-on). This case is well worth the money.
The nice thing about this case is that if you put a 5 inch GPS in it there is still room for the car power cord. I was forever losing the cord as my old case barely fit the unit.
The outside is not a hard shell but a stiff foam. The zipper is sturdy and easy to zip.
Great case at a good price.
A very good product for the money. It was perfect to hold my Garmin Aera 500, along with the docket for the stand, as well as the auto adapter, without any problem. The construction appeared solid and should has a long time of rough use. Highly recommend, if you are looking for a case for a 5" gps navigator. Ram

The case is large enough to store the car adaptor cord and the 5" system. It is sturdy enough to withstand bumps.
Fits the Garmin nuvi 1450 5-inch GPS perfectly. There is ample room for storage of the gps on one side and room for the traffic/lighter plug and the instructions on the other side. It keeps my gps protected and out of sight and out of the way in the glove compartment when not in use. Would definitely recommend this product.
I bought this case for my Garmin nuvi 2595LMT.
Case Type:
- This is a hard case that will protect your GPS and cables.
- The case doesn't look bad in appearance but I wouldn't use it while traveling.
Size:
- I was shocked to see how thick this thing was. It looks pretty big when you open the box it came in. Not something your wife will want to carry in her purse when you travel.
Inside:
- The inside has a netted area to hold your 5" GPS and also has a large space to store the GPS cables and even your manuals.
- I could see storing the GPS in this case when not is use but while traveling I have purchased a thinner case with stiff sides that my wife doesn't mind putting in her purse. We just put the power cable under the seat or in the glove box when we travel.
