TomTom GO 930T 4.3-Inch Widescreen Bluetooth Portable GPS Navigator Review from Vedat Bahadir Doganalp stranger in USA. TOMTOM 930, Hello,
I have recently moved in USA and it is a big challenge to drive in USA w/out efficient and reliable GPS. As soon as I landed, I bought Tomtom 930 because Tomtom is very famous in Europe. Just recently, I have bought Garmin 680 for my wife and I have been using for for 3 days and can make proper evaluation despite time is short to make an accurate evaluation:
PROS and CONS of Tomtom 930 & Garmin 680
1. Tomtom is a lot more user friendly with remote control.
2. You can find the locations with Zip Codes (I have not seen such spec in Garmin yet at least)
3. Tomtom’s guidance is a lot better in complex areas (And with Lane help, it is even better).
4. Tomtom’s map is not as good as Garmin’s at least for USA. Garmin can find more destinations and more side streets. Tomtom is great only if you don’t need every single street in each and every city.
5. Garmin has a lot better view on the screen when compared to Tomtom. It is more clearer and tells you on the screen the next street you must take and the distance left. I may feel it complicated on Tomtom’s screen because I am color blind. So, suggest you do not rely on this evaluation too much.
6. EPT is a great feature for Tomtom which guides you even there is no satellite reception. However, this feature sometimes crashes and turns the device off.
7. Tomtom follows different ways for the same origin and destinations. It is so strange but I do not really know the reason.
Last but not least, Tomtom is a great product with great features when compared to Garmin 680. However, if your occupation is sales like me, you need Garmin to find where you need to go in all details. But, Garmin’s features are a lot less than Tomtom’s. I wish there was a GPS which compiles all pros together in one device. You should also compare the price difference between two devices I own.
