Positives:
- The cards are now much more zoomed out, so that you can very well see the road geometry. (Lifetime every 3 months fresh maps!)
- The free traffic (! Also forever for free) is the best thing I've ever seen. So precise! My Navi another manufacturer has even jam's display, but somehow always made strange proposals, partly it also ended in chaos, not so here. For this, I also forgive the one or the other function who may have other Navi's more.
- The search is ... how shall I say ... special and different. One can enter everything easy. Easy street name to type and usually you get the desired result as the first. Eben Burger King entered, immediately ordered all Burger Kings ascending near to kilometers. What more do you want? I was even accustomed only ZIP, then street, then enter place and was confused at the beginning, that that now no longer is, but it's actually a lot faster!
- Since the new update is finally always displayed at the top right, which lane you should be classified. That had me be lacking genuine, thank you!
Negatives:
- Sometimes the Navi has just not all information's. For example, an unexpected site or a flashing police car with roadblock. Here there is no way the Navi to say that one can not long go there. If you simply go somewhere else wants it can also happen that a Navi again will lead to the road where you can not go and you are literally in the dead end, if you are not familiar. Then I have to grab my phone and just out looking for a different route. If that still fell away, the TomTom would have everything I need.
Neutral:
- The German language is sometimes a little odd, I feel that as embarrassing as it is to a computer voice that reads text modules, you could change quite easily. "In 500 meters you have reached your destination." Certainly this comes from the English "in 500 meters you have reached your destination" and was well realized with an online translator. Power but please an "in 500 meters you have reached your destination" of it. There are even more so little quirks in it. "In 30 meters you will drive through the roundabout" should read "You go into the roundabout." in English that would be right through again. etc. You can also feel free to send me the text modules and I translate for you, TomTom.
Support:
- At the last software update my Blitzer and mobile Blizer had expired, although bought for one year. Yesterday I wrote to the support and now get an answer (within a day!), That the problem was solved. For this they have apologized and I voluntarily simply reset the Abozeit so that I have now again 1! Have to read the e-mail my navigator turned on and, in fact: Expires 02/14/2015. Thanks TomTom! Could not be better.
Because the software is developed about every 2-3 months with new features (new update) I am assuming that the manual roadblocks and perhaps other functions also should be there soon.
The Navi has helped me more than others and less stress caused Navi's date and if it is overall better personally me, I forgive the one or the other still missing feature that will surely also come sometime.
