This TomTom unit works well, screen is easy to understand, and using it is simple. I had a Magellan before, would NEVER buy one again. Magellan’s customer Service is horrible, TomToms support is much better and their website allows you to upgrade sattelite locations on your unit, so if you turn it on while you’re driving, it finds you in less than a minute. The Magellan takes 5 - 10 minutes in the same situation!
There are less points of interest on the TomTom, but that’s not that important to me. Most of the time I have an address or I’m looking for a gas station or hotel, which are usually listed.
Large, clear screen. Audio is clear and loud enough. Basic functionality, it gets the job done. A couple of times it *has* suggested routes which aren’t optimal, so I’m giving it 4 stars instead of 5.
since this is REFURBISHED it does NOT have a recent map AND in order to buy a map update it costs $70-80. DO THE MATH, this is NOT a bargain and AMAZON KNOWS IT but are NOT listing it in the details/description above
