Case Logic GPSP-2 Professional GPS Case for 4.3-Inch Flatscreens

Case Logic GPSP-2 Professional GPS Case for 4.3-Inch Flatscreens

A Case Too Large

I purchased the case for my new Magellan 1412 4.3 GPS. The unit fits fine in the case but the case is way too thick for it's intended purpose. The GPS is small enough to travel in your shirt pocket but not when placed in the case. The 'hard' shell case is not really hard. It is cardboard. I am disappointed with the case quality. I'd value the product at about five bucks.

Sturdy carrier with extra room to spare

OK, I thought this was going to be a smaller package but this carrier has more space than I was looking for. It is sturdy, and it has a mesh partition where the unit can slide into to keep it in place. This though helpful to store the unit, it is a bit challenging to remove the unit quickly. Yes, I may be overreacting here but I just feel it is so. The case will hold the unit and the charge cable comfortably if you're using the TTN cable from Garmin. The MSN cable has a larger head and you have to play with it to make it fit. Also note, take caution to place the unit in the mesh compartment with the screen facing the wall of the case and the back of the gps facing the power chord. Other than that, I feel it's a good case and I do like the carry strap as it swivels 360* so it doesn't get tangled up.

Good hard shell case, no padding

This case fits my Garmin nuvi 260W with room to spare at the top. The hard outer shell is well constructed, but no padding inside. A side mesh pocket holds the gps in place and a cleaning cloth is included. There are 2 elastic bands that keep the case from opening fully, but they are designed to keep the gps from sliding out the sides. The case arrives wrapped in plastic, and the carry strap and cleaning cloth are held in place by a plastic tie which must be cut to use.

Great Case, Not too small!

I purchased this case for the Garmin 760. I'm not sure why the other reviewer mentioned it did not fit the 760 but my brand new Garmin 760 fits perfectly inside with extra space! There is 1 inch of extra room on the top and 1/4" on each side. and plenty of room on top to close the zippered lid. All this while slipped into the mesh screened pocket inside. It came with a soft cloth and wrist strap with a swivel clasp to connect to the case. This is an awesome case with a little extra room for a memory card and protective shields.

Fits The Navigon 7100 But Should Be Better For The Price

Overpriced for what you get but it does fit the Navigon 7100 relatively well. The clamshell case, with elastic bands on the sides that limit the width of the opening, has one side with an elastic pocket. The Navigon 7100 wedges securely in the pocket and reduces the chance of the GPS falling out. If you don't use the pocket side to store your GPS then there's a good chance of it rattling about when stored and falling out when the case is opened. There's no real padding on the synthetic cloth covered sides of the case but it does come with a small strap and soft cloth which you'll need to use to wipe off all the fingerprints resulting from having to extract your GPS by grabbing it's front and back instead of by its sides. This is an overpriced mediocre case with limited benefit but is still better than the cheap cloth bag provided by Navigon. Get this case if you have nothing else available to use.
