TomTom Start 42 review

  (Rating Hidden)

Tomtom

 

It's a bit slow to be honest and clunky to use. Once it's on and going it's ok though....not the best satnav I've had.

Easy to use

 

I have never had a Tom Tom sat nav before , I was surprised on how easy it was to use very clear display, but the ladies voice goes on a bit telling you 3/4 times for direction ,it would of a good idea to have 2 Jack in points so you could charge mobil...

Terrible quality

 

Cheap feel, horrible cheap looking screen, kept freezing and really unresponsive. I cannot believe this is a tomtom! My six year old tomtom is ten times better quality than this, but sadly cannot be updated any more.
