This is a great GPS. I had another TomTom GPS that I bought a couple of years ago and it died. I don't know what happened to it, but it just won't turn on when I push the botton. It was a cheaper model, I think TomTom One is the model, and it served me well. I was a bit disappointed, but two years of good life isn't so bad.
Beacause I am as lost as they come with directions, I needed a new GPS, like NOW! So I started doing some research, then I remembered that a friend of mine always buys the more expensive ones (on the $400+ range) and never really likes them. So I thought I should stick with something not very expensive, since I don't really use it for anything fancy, just to get me from A to B, without driving for hours lost and panicking.
I was very used to the TomTom and how it works, so I decided to get another one just like the first one I had, which now sells for about $60. While I was looking, I came across this one and decided that I would give it a try. I am glad I did, I really love it!
If you have used a TomTom before, then you know how easy it is to use this. Just plug and go, very easy. The screen is larger than the previous one I had, and it also feels more sensitive to touch, which is nice. Here's my take:
PROS
- Larger screen
- More sensitive screen
- Easy to use, no need to do anything but plug it in the car and start using
- Easy menus
- Easy to download additional features and update maps when plugged to the computer
- No need for a bracket on the windshield, it has the suction cup attached to it, so when you take it out, no one can tell whether you have a GPS or not (even if you put away your GPS, thieves can usually guess you have one if they see the bracket)
- Very easy to attach and remove unit from windshield!
CONS
Well, not really a con. But because I never read instructions manuals, it took me a few days to realize how easy it is to attach and remove the suction cup on the back of the unit. You just have to put the unit against the glass and rotate the round part behind the suction cup to the locked position.
All things considered, I am very happy with my new GPS. It is exactly an upgrade from the one I already loved. :) |
It's ok

I bought this product expecting it to work just like the smaller version. To my surprise, this xl version doesn't work like the smaller version, this product takes longer to find the satellites. When i turn on this product, it usually takes about 40 seconds to find the satellites, when my smaller version of a tomtom used to take 8 seconds to find the satellites. Another thing i didn't like is that i bought this product when it was 120 dollars new, and in two weeks Amazon was offering it for about 90 dollars!!
The gps works fine.. you need to play with the settings to make it easy to follow the roads. I think that all Garmin Gps have better graphics and are easier to use but TomTom gives a free map update and a cable to connect it to your computer.. and that's just great. If Garmin was to give a map update and a cable connection for your computer, then i would choose Garmin anytime. |
Lost without my TomTom

| The Tomtom XL 325 is fantastic for me personally. I can now get to anywhere I'm going. The screen size is quite clear but I tend to listen to the audio directions and keep my eyes on the road. It can take a minute to 'fire up' and calculate where you are but no more googling maps and then trying to remember the directions as I enter the knot of options on the city freeways. The world is my oyster now - no longer the panic of getting lost especially trying to find the freeway onramps in Houston. I recommed my Tomtom to anyone, I've had no problems at all with it and am literally lost without it. |
This Tom Tom GPS is great! Excellent value for the money.

| This Tom Tom GPS I purchased for my wife for Christmas has been great. At first she didn't think she would use it, but before I knew it she had it attached to her laptop to update it. Then she got it installed in her car, and now she thinks it is great. When I have used it I find it very likeable and more accurate than the 'Never Lost' systems I have had in Hertz rental cars. I need to get myself one. |
Nice GPS, but TomTom customer service is bad, bad, bad

| I've had this GPS unit for four months. Overall I like it -- it's sturdy and does a decent job with directions. I have only two complaints: (1) sometimes the map isn't entirely accurate, and on two occasions it has taken me to the wrong address (both times it was a map issue and not operator error), and (2) TomTom customer support is really, really bad. I ordered an accessory and they promptly charged my card. Four months and 14 customer support emails later (including the last one where I threatened to submit a chargeback request), they finally delivered the accessory. I will likely throw away the unit before ever dealing with TomTom customer service again, and I expect that my next GPS will be a Garmin. |
