Garmin DriveCam 76 review: Great promise, poor video stabilization

Garmin’s DriveCam 76 caught our fancy simply because the large touchscreen makes it so easy to see and use. It offers top-tier navigation, but the dash cam section suffered severe stabilization issues in our capture tests.

Super large touch display; First-class navigation; Online storage of captures; Phone connectivity;

Wonky video stabilization ; Doesn’t connect to ID-less Wi-Fi networks;

Garmin DriveCam 76 review: Great promise, poor video stabilization

With most people using their phone or existing car tech for navigation, a dedicated third-party GPS nav unit like the $450 Garmin DriveCam 76 might seem a bit quaint. Well, it may be passé, but if you have a car without navigation built in, a third-party unit beats that heck out of using your phone.
