I got it because of a limitation of GPS on most phones, though I do know Google Maps changed to allow you to pre-download maps.
Why get a Garmin when I have my Android? Because if there is no cell data coverage, you can't navigate anywhere. With a Garmin, I'm not tied to cell towers, and there are tons of roads here in the PNW that don't have cell coverage.

There are apps that let you download the maps ahead of time on the phone that dont require a constant cell or data network connection. Then you can use Turn by Turn nav without the worry of losing your signal.
