TomTom GO 920T EU/N.AM

+ Great tool!

- The gyros and accelerometres (EPS) do not seem to add a great amount of accuracy to the positioning in tunnels, when compared to other TomTom GPSs that do not have this feature. Otherwise, it is a very solid GPS.

+ Reviewer left no comment

- Some of the place names are not identified by address when they've been at their present location for 40 years. I refer to private airfields/aerodromes & private addresses in private roads, one being my wifes sister.
SPEED WARNINGS are out of date showing cameras that don't and can't be where indicated no bridge or gantry to put them on and the speed warnings shown on the equipment need to be twice the size. Thats about it.

+ It is quite accurate, and well presented.

- Camera updates - I have notified Tom Tom since Xmas of a new camera location and to date they have not updated all Tom Tom users.
The instructions for using verious options are not very clear
The unit its a bit on the heavy side.
The accessories are costly

+ Clear easy to read display. Quick GPS signal lock. Much improved mount over previous model. Speach recognition is very good

- Bluetooth remote takes a few seconds to connect with main unit each time it is used. Outdated maps.

+ Pretty Fast to recalculate a new route when the recommended route is not followed. Quick response of screen touch.

- No carrying bag, the device hanged up once when using the mobile via blue tooth and have to power off to reset it.

+ Ease of use, down loads especially map share.

- Battery life average is extremely short if using as hands free with mobile
Tom Tom Traffic is very inaccurate especially arrival time - Traffic is not worth the subscription
Would be nice if supplied with case especially for this price

+ It helps travelling to a particular destination without having to check maps, multimap etc.
The bluetooth feature is good however I am still experiencing teething problems from time to time when it falls out with my mobile.

- Sometime gives wrong, or unclear, verbal instructions. The screan is usually correct

+ Great because its got all the necessary maps when we plan to go to Europe, USA & Canada.Mapshare,Tom tom cameras and other extras are great as well.Remote control adds additional benefits to buying it.

- Inserting batteries into my Remote control was a nightmare as the instructions did not help much. The Tom Tom holder tends to fall off mostly due to the weight of the tom tom and poor suctioning.I have to get another holder because of this.Traffic updates were supposed to be free when i purchased it but it does not seem to work.But in all its still a good buy with some reservations.

+ None at all because of all the hype surrounding this product expectations are high but unfortunately it doesn't deliver the goods.............extremely disappointed!!

- Product over hyped does not do what is says in the adverts!!!

+ Bluetooth that connects to your phone, very accurate mapping and a lead that sticks to your windscreen to enable you to recieve traffic update which doesn't work too well but very good at saving your TomTom hitting the floor when the window mount fails !

- complicated to use and over priced compared to others that have the same functions, but the main fault i have experianced is the window mount keeps comming unstuck resulting in a very exspensive piece of kit laying in your foot well if your not fast enough to catch it while driving which is a wee bit of a hazard, strongly advise attaching the traffic lead to act mainly as safety chain

+ The tomtom is a great piece of equipment. The maps are mostly accurate, we've only come across a few new junctions not yet added in and with regular updates and map corrections I'm sure they will be soon. The touch screen is easy to use and the choice and presentation of information on the screen when travelling is excellent. There is also security in being able to know exactly where you are (and the nearest service station/hospitals/hotels) in case of breakdown or other mishap. It is also extremely easy to use to plan long routes, find locations and browse the maps.

- The only lost point (on the main device) for me really is that the menu has so many options it can take a little longer than I'd like to find certain options, but you can set it to a 'simplified' menu system which removes a lot of the rarely used items and/or you can add items to a quick access button on the main screen. If using the included traffic warning system the wire attachment to the dashboard/windscreen can be a bit fiddly and annoying, however the traffic updates have been useful causing our route to be re-calculated around any disruption. The lack of an included case (at least in the pack we bought) was disappointing, but there is a nice one available seperately that is relatively cheap.

+ I have used TomTom 700 for last 2 years and this 920 model works just the same - so no learner curve.  This unit is so much more responsive and satellite reception is much more sensitive.  It is really easy to carry/use out of the car. In case of any queries/problems TomTom support is very good.

- New model 930 introduced week after I bought but on price I would probably have still bought the 920. Also the 'TomTom Home' software didn't work with my new model - that software bug has now been fixed.

+ good sized screen, excellent hands free phone calls, can be used left or right handed. clear instructions.

- N/A

+ Really clear to understand and has good timing.

- Reviewer left no comment

+ simple, clear, conveniet, anybody can use it without a manual. perfect logic.
apart from trafick it works a treat...

- trafic reporting no good probably due to UK radio warning system slow to update or software glitch, cant tell.

+ Reviewer left no comment

- Remote didn't work from new. In repair at present. Not sure if this is a common problem.

+ Its all good. I am moderate at technology and I found it idiot proof.

- None. Yet!

+ easy to use

- should be supplied with a case

+ easy to use and to update.

- The fm transmitter is a good idea but is sometimes awkward to setup.

+ Ease of use

- Map is not always accurate.

+ The software is ok.

- The traffic facility is very poor. It spent ages trying to find an appropriate radio signal and often I just gave up with it after it had spent over an hr trying to locate one. And the arial for this is very long and looks rubbish trailed all around your windscreen. I believe that some other devices have an inbuilt arial which would be much better. Then after about 3 uses of the device, the socket for the arial broke and so now it doesn't sense when it is plugged in. Finally, to top it all, when I went to connect the device to my blackberry 880, although it connected fine using bluetooth it does not seem possile to use the blackberry with the TT to set up a wireless connection for TT's advanced features 9wuch as wireless traffic, speed camera updates etc.) All in all, very dissappointing for a device at this cost.

+ Reviewer left no comment

- no display of trip data ie, max ,average speed, etc

+ Voice commands, allowing you to keep eyes on road: clear touch screen

- None

+ Compact with a good screen and, if accurate, good map updating

- Annoying repetitive on-screen messages

+ simply great

- a little bit fidderly pluging in the charger and rds traffic reciever plug. Also for price it should have come with a case.

+ Slim design very clear screen and very fast to start up.
Includes USA Maps and Europe. Australia available as an option.

- No leather carry case included in the price.

+ Links up to my phone very well.

- Computer voice not very good and incorrect spped limit showing in some areas.

+ Easy to use. If you've used a TomTom before, you can work this one straight away

- Difficulty getting accessories, as not many available yet

+ easy to use, we particularly like the phone answering and email reading facilities

- local knowledge not very good on occasions the satnav plots a course which is acceptable to the majority of users although locals may be aware of short cuts not identified by the tom tom

+ Pricing at the time of buying the product and also the range of useful features.

- It seems as if certain features are free and then you have to pay for some sort of subscription later on, even if you pay for a top of the range product.

+ If worked, great

- RDS Traffic arial didn't work, returned for full refund. TomTom design fault on all Traffic TomToms that use the RDS aerial that attaches to the windscreen. Waiting for the new model 930 HD Traffic as they have rectified this problem in these new models by incorporating the traffic aerial into the cirgarette lighter charger.

+ The equipment has a clear display and provides clear accurate instructions. It is easy to set up and programme. The size and weight of the unit makes it easy to carry when not in use. Generally I was very pleased with it.

- I have not discovered any points which I would describe as bad, but as with all sat nav units you should check the route the unit is proposing.

+ Excellent product, very useful and functional

- would be nice if screen was bigger. Seems quite small for the top TomTom model and at a premium price.

+ easy to use and set up

- none

+ nice design

- some of the options are a little tricky to set up and use

+ Easy to use once familiarity is established. Excellent in unfamiliar towns particularly abroad. When a wrong turn is taken by the driver it is quick to respond with an alternative route.

- Did not always find a small town or village at the input stage. I had to settle for a nearby location. Once there navigation was fine. Complete post codes are better. One can set an itinerary with waypoints and final destination but it will not follow that route unless a second point is selected after the previos one has been reached, preferring its own A to B route.

+ Much better than a Ato Z.

- You can not sometimes search by street name!
Postcode search is sometimes inaccurate.
The GPRS response is sometime quite slow

+ Compact and easier to carry around than pervious models. Very simple to use. tom tom is an excellent product.

- Suction pad is not as good as previous models and it often falls off the window which is very annoying. Some of the routes calculated are very peculiar. Having used a previous model for 3 years, I am now finding myself shooting up little lanes which actually slows you down, even though I have it set on 'fastest route'

+ Battery, design, menu options, bluetooth communication quality

- European maps accuracy, voices!, FM transmission quality

+ Easy to use, Good sized screen with excellant functionality - the automatic recalculations caused by rds traffic reports has proved really useful

- Disappointed it didn't come with its own protective case - it has to be purchased seperately.

+ Intuitive screen (makes up for lack of a hard-copy manual). Picks up satellites very quickly, even from one continent to another. Route-finding is generally reliable, although common-sense needed as well. Very good all-in one unit, compact size, easily portable, especially with the dedicated semi-hard case (no zip problems to-date!)

- Latest map update process did not work, although TomTom helpline was useful in resolving the issue.

+ Nice and compact, easy to read and understand instructions. I like the voice prompts that are repeated nearer to your turn of change of road. Overall appears well made and it does the job well.

- Not to sure about the sucker fastening for the aerial to attached to the windscreen to enable traffic up dates. Some suckers will not remain stuck to the screen. Dash board area seems a bit cluttered with power cable from cig. lighter + aerial connection bits.

+ clear directions good with the speed warnings

- voice recognision a bit iffy

+ East to use

- would love to have paid a little bit less for it.

+ Looks great, plays music via FM sender etc

- Its core function is badly flawed. Although the maps can be "updated" they are still incorrect for my local area - before and after the update process (which itself takes ages !). There is for example a traffic island etc which don't appear accurately, also to cross the traffic lights it says "turn left and turn right" when going straight ahead (?). This gadget would be even more useless in an unfamiliar area and I suspect could contribute to accidents.

+ Good looking, great features

- windscreen mount is fairly unstable and doesn't inspire confidence

+ Easy to use

- None

+ excerlant deal excerlant product

- none

+ Ease if use, maps of US and Europe included and good value.

- Some delay in map updates eg new road layouts in Ashford, Kent

+ Ease of use, and fun

- Took me quite a while to get to grips with it but now I use it regularly

+ very intuative to use, great bluetooth hands free for the phone.

- no integrated dock available (seperate power & TMC have to be connected everytime you use in the car)

+ What a Great Product.Easy to use,No fuss,No Bother.

- Not to much Storage..!

+ Good product generally but description with regards to safety cameras is inaccurate with no mention of subsciption.

- See above.

+ faster to use

- does not keep up on round abouts

+ Ease of use, saves a lot of time, very clear to read and understand, a very good product, well thought out.

- Removing it from view every time you park, not allways the fastest route, takes you to the wrong road now and then.

+ design is excellent
graphics very good
easy to understand
intuitive

- would like addition of "scenery" off the main route

+ Good clear screen, easy screen mount, simple to use, slim but packed with functions and data!

- TMC is working but I only ever see delay's of 1min and clearly the delay's are often longer than 1 minute!! A USB plug to the side would work better than to the underside.

+ best i can find

- none at the moment

+ Clear screen. Allows you to record your own naviagation voice (fun for the kids!)

- Suction mount sometimes not strong enough. No case as standard. Traffic info seems a bit random.

+ The tom tom is great I used to have the software version on my PDA but move to a full GO when I got a new Work Blackberry. And the UI is really good very simple sometime's you can get a bit lost but that is only because it has so many functions, it connected via Bluetooth to my blackberry and downloaded my contacts and the doc top update and charge it means it's always upto date.

- I am using mine in my main car and my weekend toy, in my main car I use the trafic cable which is very good, and in my toy I use my ipod, but I have been wanting on occasions to use both but there is only one accessory connector. Also would like to see a greater

+ Compact and easy to use with all maps on board as standard

- Took us down a dead end road in Spain but not too far.

+ Good accuracy, easy to use, maps are excellent. The traffic receiver is a real time saver.

- the window mount is so cheap for such an expensive product - it continually falls off the windscreen. Map corrections are very difficult to do as the menu is very limited. You cannot make a portion of a street one way or put in a no right turn at an intersection.

+ Easy to clip on and off; easy to set up; brilliant hands free kit!

- Not compatible with iphone / ipod; menus take too long to scroll through - you can change this but as yet I don't know how! Battery life not that good

+ clear screen, easy to swap set up preferences. Brillant that the UK, Europe ane USA maps are all on the sat nav for ease of use if you intend to travel a lot.

- Takes a while to pick up signals sometimes.

+ Very user friendly.

- Some major errors in the mapping.

+ Easy to use

- Now always up to date - for example, the A419 at Swindon - it doesn;t have the new road layout yet

+ easily understood directions

- set up takes too long

+ Extremely well made and accurate product.

- No case and windscreen mount unreliable.

+ When it's working it's great!

- After 1 month the unit started freezing and restarting, loosing all previous inputs. Has had to go back to TOMTOM to be fixed / replaced! Not a great start to life with a TOMTOM.

+ Impressive itinerary planning capability through USA and Europe. 'Immediate' response times

- Vulnerable to target or theft.

+ ease of connection to PC

- cant get bluetooth to work

+ Full Europe and US maps, updated through the internet

- Reviewer left no comment

+ quick satellite fix, great screen, remote useful when driving plus poi,s can be edited or downloaded by user. Very intuitive.

- some map errors (you can correct not sure how to yet) and odd routing ie tried to send me through a town that was a 2 mile journey yet I was a quarter of a mile from the destination by going my way. Traffic very innacurate it said there was a delay of 2hrs yet when I arrived at the back of queue there was only a 20 minute delay.

+ Voice input ease of use

+ Functionality, high spec'd

- Size, reponse time

+ good traffic info.

- Reviewer left no comment

+ great device, good screen

- takes a while to get used to the menus to find what your looking for. Eg change warning for speed cameras etc.

+ very interactive and loads of features to play with

- touch screen can sometimes be unresponsive

+ easy to use. exellent product

- none

+ The ease of use, can be used straight out of the box. The integrated Bluetooth mobile phone hands-free facility is very good. I also bought it for the Irish maps, they look pretty good, but will know more when I take it on holiday soon.

- Does not seem to calculate routesas well as my old Navman PIN. Only seems to come with fixed speed cameras and traffic-light cameras. I don't think you mobile cameras unless you subscribe.

+ Easy to use

- Short battery life

+ Ease of use. Clear concise instructions.

- Volume for handsfree calling too quiet.
Diabolical customer support from TomTom with previous product.

+ Voice Activated Input, Phone bluetooth compatability, built in MP3 player.

- Voice input ceases to work for a short time after a software update, though seems to sort itself out.

+ brilliant gadget

- none

+ Simple to use - packed with features

- None
