I am totally disappointed with the Tom Tom brand Why:-
My first XL purchased 2 years ago worked perfect until one month past warranty and went blank, memory failed, repair $150 to inspect + parts. I can get a new unit cheaper.
So as I was used to the unit I purchased another. Out of the box the new XL would not turn on. Returned it the same day and had a replacement. That was in February this year. Appears as if the battery has failed on this XL, now it will not hold a charge, but does work only when connected to computer or car power.
My camera is a much better design, plug in memory micro SD REPLACEABLE battery plug in also REPLACEABLE
So I shall send my unit back via the purchase store wait while the rest of the warranty gets eaten up and start saving for some other unit that is more likely to last.
Unless I can pick one up for what it is actually worth as a throw away I shall move on. I realise some may be more fortunate but read the problems people are having. Not a good recommendation for what could be a good concept. I guess planes do not use Tom Tom devices built in otherwise there would be problems.
I am a pensioner and as I expect the thoughts of the powers to be could not give a fig it is the first nail in Tom Toms coffin, disappoint enough by bad products and close shop.
Way to go Tom Tom.
