Garmin’s nuvi 3700 Satnav is claimed to be one of the most ultra-thin GPS devices on the market, so you can put it in your pocket as well as mount it on your dashboard.

At less than 9mm thin, the unit has managed to score a Red Dot Design Award in the field of more than 4,000 submissions.
There are two models in the series – the 3790T and 3760. It includes lifetime traffic alerts, voice-activated navigation and 3D building and terrain view.

It has a 4.3-inch WVGA display with smooth glass capacitive touch panel that lets users see their preloaded maps and intuitive menus in landscape or portrait modes – it is suitable for use in the car or on foot.

Its multi-touch display gives users the ability to zoom in and out (by double-tapping or pinching the map), browse surrounding areas on the map (dragging a finger), or change perspective from 2D to 3D and rotate the map 360 degrees (two-finger drag or twist).

Both models include myTrends, making a driver’s commute easier than ever. myTrends predicts routes based on your most frequent destinations allowing you to jump in your car, turn on the unit and travel to your location quickly.

A unit will respond to voice commands with a customisable ‘wake-up’ phrase to start navigation.

Each unit has Whereis mapping of both Australia and New Zealand; Bluetooth wireless technology; Points of Interest dialling; and ecoRoute to help drivers with fuel-efficient driving. There is also speed limit indicator, safety cameras, customisable wallpaper, Real View Advanced Lane Guidance, park position recall, a secondary speaker located on the powered mount, offering good sound quality.
