Garmin Camper sat nav range 2026: 795 vs 895 vs 1095
Last updated: 6 September 2026
Garmin's current camper range is three devices that are the same sat nav in three screen sizes: the 7-inch Camper 795, the 8-inch Camper 895 and the 10-inch Camper 1095. The model number is the screen size. Routing, maps, campsite data, guidance and updates are identical across all three, so the only decision is which size fits your cab and your budget. This page is the short version; each model has its own full review.
If you are here because you searched for a Camper 780, 770 LMT-D, 760 LMT-D or 660 LMT-D – those are the previous generations, now discontinued. Jump to what replaced them.

Which screen size should you buy?
Because the software is identical, this is a question about your dashboard, not about features. Our rule of thumb from using all three:
- Towing a caravan with a car, or driving a campervan: the 795. A 7-inch unit sits on a car dash without blocking the view; an 8 or 10-inch one is an obstruction. It is also the cheapest of the three and the one most owners buy (see our towing guide).
- Coachbuilt motorhome up to about 7.5 m, or you wear reading glasses: the 895. The extra inch and the 1280×800 panel make junction graphics and lane arrows readable without leaning in, which is the whole point of paying more.
- A-class or large coachbuilt with a deep, wide dash: the 1095. On a big windscreen a 7-inch screen looks lost; the 10-inch is genuinely tablet-sized and makes motorway interchanges far less stressful. In anything smaller it is more screen than you need.
If you are still unsure, buy the 795. You lose nothing in capability and you can always mount it closer to the driver.
What all three do – and what none of them do
Every Camper in the range plans routes around the height, width, length and weight you enter for your vehicle, keeping you away from low bridges, weight limits and roads that are legal for a car but miserable with a caravan on the back. You can save several profiles and switch between them – car on its own for the school run, car plus caravan for the trip. Campsite search draws on the ACSI and CamperContact databases and can be filtered by what you need (electric hook-up, Wi-Fi and so on), and nearby restaurants and services carry TripAdvisor ratings on the device. Maps are full Europe with free lifetime updates over Wi-Fi, so there is nothing to plug into a computer and nothing to subscribe to.
Two things none of them do. There is no built-in SIM: live traffic, weather and parking arrive through your phone and the free Garmin Drive app, which is fine in the UK but worth remembering abroad if your data plan is tight. And no reversing camera is included – all three work with Garmin's wireless cameras, but that is a separate purchase.
CamperCam: the dash cam version
The CamperCam 795 is the standard Camper 795 with a dash cam built into the back of the unit, adding forward-collision and lane-departure warnings and giving you footage if you are ever unlucky enough to need it for insurance. It costs more than the plain 795, and it means one fewer thing stuck to the windscreen. If you want the dash cam and a bigger screen, be aware that we have not tested a CamperCam variant of the 895 or 1095 – check the listing carefully rather than assuming.
Discontinued Garmin Camper models – and what replaced them
Garmin has renamed and replaced this range several times, and the old names still get searched a lot, so here is the honest map from old to new.
| Old model | Screen | Status | Current equivalent |
|---|---|---|---|
| Camper 780 | 6.95”, 1024×600 | Discontinued | Camper 795 – same size and resolution, newer hardware |
| Camper 770 LMT-D | 7” | Discontinued | Camper 795 |
| Camper 760 LMT-D | 7” | Discontinued | Camper 795 |
| Camper 660 LMT-D | 6” | Discontinued | Camper 795 – there is no longer a 6-inch model; the 795 is the smallest |
Already own one? It still works, and it still routes around your vehicle profile. The reasons to upgrade are practical rather than dramatic: the current range has newer hardware, a higher-resolution panel on the 895 and 1095, Wi-Fi map updates on every model (the 760 LMT-D had no Wi-Fi and updated by computer), and the CamperCam option. If your old unit is working and its maps are up to date, there is no urgency.
“Garmin RV 760” / “RV 780” / “RV 795”: these are the North American versions of the same devices, sold with North American maps. If you are buying in the UK you want the Camper name, which ships with full European maps and the European campsite databases; a grey-import RV model will not.
Garmin Camper vs the alternatives
The Garmin range is our top pick for most drivers, but it is not the only good option. The TomTom GO Camper Max is the closest rival at the same 7-inch size, with worldwide maps if you tour beyond Europe; the British-made Aguri RV760 is our value pick with a strong UK club-site database; and the Avtex Tourer Three is built around the Caravan and Motorhome Club's own site data. All six current models are lined up in our full comparison table, and if you drive a van conversion rather than a motorhome, see our campervan picks.
