| Review summary | The TomTom GO 940 Live is one of the most expensive sat-navs we've come across, both in terms of initial and ongoing costs. Yet, despite it being top of the range, it still suffers from some flaws. The device's wealth of features compensates for this to a degree, however, and professional and company car drivers will find that many new services prove a real boon Read full review |
Whether you want a simple, out-of-the-box sat nav or a smart, flexible companion for complex journeys, the TomTom One XL Europe or TomTom One XL Regional will fit the bill. It's not cheap and lacks the flash media functionality of some rivals, but when it comes to pure navigation, TomTom is still the GPS benchmark Read full review |
With the wrapping still clinging to the underside of the GO 920T, some may feel slightly peeved by the 930 Traffic's arrival. But with the sat-nav world changing rapidly each day, the features are a more natural progression, rather than a stab in the back. Nothing should get in the way of what is an excellent product Read full review |
The TomTom GO 920T re-establishes the company as the top dog for GPS navigation. Its widescreen format has lost weight from its 910 predecessor and it now focuses on the navigational aides rather than multimedia gimmicks. As a result you have voice recognition that works, text-to-speech throughout the interface and a TMC/FM receiver for routing around traffic problems Read full review |
