Customer Review

The TomTom Start 20M is my third Navi, after starting with a TomTom 2005 I had in the meantime a FalkNavi and now return to TomTom. Accordingly, easy entry, I noticed, however, convinced that everyone / woman problems with the device comes zurande. Menu structure and connection and update the PC are absolutely self-explanatory and went playing out of hand. After updating the PC we went even going on and after one week testing here are my pros and cons

(+)

- Easy to install and use, good user interface
- A clear, not necessarily beautiful, but effective map display in 2D or 3D
- Free Lifetime Maps with quarterly updates (about 2-3GB) and daily updates via Map Share
- Sufficient space on the Navi for further map updates (6GB internally), Möglichkeite of Memory expansion via MicroSD
- Good-to-use and fast reacting touchscreen
- Timely, accurate and easy to understand text-to-speech message with street names (for me the blind and dumb moves by Navi, extremely important)
- Extensive map material (Western and Central Europe fully, including Great Britain and Ireland, on the TomTom website look, Eastern Europe is partly covered only partially, the Amazon product description confused here)
- Park Place Finder and good POI Finder

- Satellite be rapid, but not found superior fast speed, however, is sufficient in any case!
- Partially minor errors regarding speed limits and highway exits I have already discovered, all in all, but quite a few problems
- Holders and at the plate: Keeps Although bombproof, but it is somewhat tricky to install and always needs to be completely removed because the Navi can not take out of the holder, for Navi-frequent users which is certainly quite annoying.

(-)

- Short battery life (90min ... ok you have in the car so often a power source here ...)
- TMC receiver does not permanently installed but the cable that actually leads in combination with the low battery life that you get the cables always in Zigianzünder, cable must also be plugged mandatory prior to application to the disk into the socket.

All in all, outweigh the pluses for me by far and I can recommend the TomTom with a clear conscience. Because small improvement faded the 5th star, solid 4 sinds all.
