The case is long enough to use with widescreen models, but it worked OK with my "standard" width GPS. I originally bought this case for my Nuvi 265T. This sleeve type case fits nicely without extra bulk.
If you have a Garmin you need this case. It protects the screen and is easy to remove for Garmin use.
Holds securely so it wont fall out. Fits 3.5 inch Nuvi perfectly. Provides protection for screen and quick access to your GPS.
The GPS sticks out about 1/2 inch at the end. I wrote to the shipper about it, but no response. This carrying case is way too small for the Nuvi500 GPS. It's so tight a fit it's a struggle to get in and out of the case.
It's a binary thing - either it works or it doesn't. If you plan on taking your GPS out of your car, or need to carry your Nuvi 500, pick up a slip case AND a screen protector of some sort. With something like this, it's hard to give it a good star rating. The Nuvi 500 fits pretty snug, so you don't have to worry about this thing slipping out and falling on the ground (where naturally, it'll hit a big rock and shatter the screen). It fits well, but the case is really only designed to protect against scratches and dings of the LCD instead of the device itself. I ended up buying this case for my Garmin Nuvi 500. The case is sort of flimsy looking but it feels like it's decent quality to the touch. Yes, it does its job but it's rather dull.
