Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I had an old C320 Garmin GPS that I bought only 2 years ago and the touch screen was freezing up randomly for several months so I decided to get a new Garmin nuvi 200. I exchanged the Garmin nuvi 200 for the Tom Tom 130S mainly because the Garmin nuvi 200 did not have speech for street names. The Garmin nuvi 260 announces street names but was $250. The Tom Tom 130S was on sale for $199 so I decided to try it out although I was a little hesitant since I'm a big Garmin fan. I'm happy about my exchange. It's plusses surpass its minuses:
My favorite features:
-The mount is awesome, it's foldable and the Tom Tom snaps out easily.
It's also very lightweight and can be easily stored with the Tom Tom for
easy transportability
-You can easily connect to computer for instant upgrades and map changes.
-It's fun! You can download your favorite celebrity voices. I have Mr.
T and Yoda
-It's got separate emergency contacts such as roadside assistance,
hospitals, police
-Upload to satellite time is very quick
-The volume of the voice changes automatically with your driving speed
-You can preplan an itinerary with more than one stop (you can't do that with Garmin)
Some things that can be improved:
-battery lasts only 3 hours, my old Garmin can outlast that...but TomTom
130S has improved from its older ONE models
-Menu is more complicated than Garmin so if your not tech savvy you might not like this. However, it certainly has more features than the Garmin nuvi 200
