Review of TomTom ONE by
glittergirli
Advantages: easy to use, choice of voices, basic slim design, attractions locate, favourites storing
Disadvantages: some people may find the display a bit small compared with other models
I absolutely love this product as it is so useful. It just gets used all the time. The directions it gives are so much better than any online directions and also its just amazing how much easier they are to use than a simple map/a to z. Once you have used ...

premium price budget performance
Review of Pioneer AVIC-F940BT by
callum_603
Advantages: would be an amazing piece of kit if it did as advertised
Disadvantages: it doesn't do as advertised
I bought my car last Summer and wanted to upgrade the head unit. I went to Dave Wallis in Ipswich who have always provided my in car systems in the past. I asked them about fitting a Kenwood unit as it had received very good reviews. They advised me that ...

Do you drive a colander?
Review of Kenwood KFC-W 112S by
spiritwood
Advantages: Good build quality, excellent sound, value for money.
Disadvantages: None.
I have owned classic cars for eons and over the years have driven Triumph Heralds, 2cv's (love them - had 3) and several others which eventually rusted away or were sold on to another collector.
My favourite vintage car has to be the humble Morris Minor ...

Door to door planning across Europe. Reduce driver stress!
Review of TomTom XXL by
carlz2001
Advantages: 5 inch screen, Speeding Alert, Advanced Lane, IQ routes, Emergency menu....
Disadvantages: Points of interest a bit hit and miss,
...begrudgingly just put my beloved TomTom XXL on eBay after buying a car that has a sat nav screen built into the car, and I suddenly realised that I haven’t written a review on one of my best loved gadgets ever! So here we go….!
We initially opte ...

In 100 yards, throw away this Sat-Nav.
Review of Binatone Carrera A350 by
NotMyToothbrush
Advantages: Very cheap
Disadvantages: Resistive touchscreen, slow
We do not use the Sat-Nav much as we tend to stay local when driving about and therefore we wanted a very cheap sat-nav. At only £50, this sat-nav seemed perfect for us.
Lets start with the build of the device.
As soon as you take the sat-nav out of the ...

Do you want your eardrums?
Review of Kenwood KFC-W 300 S by
NotMyToothbrush
Advantages: Very, very loud!
Disadvantages: Difficult setup?
My friend had this installed in his car by Halfords after he bought it from them a few months ago.
The setup was very, very lengthy. I am not too sure whether this was because the subwoofer was awful to set up or whether the Halfords employee was just ...

COMPACTIBLE USEFUL GPS
Review of Garmin NÜVI 200 by
ItzPhilly
Advantages: Small Size and Straight to the Point
Disadvantages: Screen may be to small for some
In my opinion this is a great little GPS the screen I think is only 2.5-3.5 inches wide but works exactly what its purpose is for. You put your start point and end point into the GPS and it gives you the option to choose the fastest route, the shortest r ...

Get lost
Review of Garmin nuvi 250 by
hopey123
Advantages: Helps you find your way (unless you are me)
Disadvantages: The voice can get annoying
I've had one of these Garmin Nuvi sat navs for quite a few years now. It doesn't get used too much but has been used enough over the years for me to get really fed of of the ladies voice that gives the instructions.
These can be picked up for about £20 ...

My mate Tom
Review of TomTom VIA 135 UK by
Krumlovian1
Advantages: voice commands
Disadvantages: cannot verbalise post codes
How did one survive without sat navs? The ability to locate a flashing point on a map and find out where you are; all thanks to the wonder that is GPS never ceases to amaze me. I am a terrible map reader, my ex wife who was actually in post as girlfriend ...

Tom Tom says turn left.
Review of TomTom ONE by

Disadvantages: Can occasionally mislead you.
My Husband and I came to driving relatively late in life, my Husband only passing his test when he hit thirty. For many years driving was an adventure for us. I would plot out where we were going using the latest AA map book, pencilling the route carefull ...

Binatone B350 - not as good as the earlier model.
Review of Binatone B350 by
madeindevon
Advantages: Cheap, entry level Sat Nav
Disadvantages: probably better models on the market
We needed a new Sat Nav, our last one unfortunately had met with an untimely death when a cup of coffee spilled onto it.
You never seem to have the money to spend out on these things when you need it, so consequently we had to make a compromise and spend ...

Show me the way
Review of Navman EZY WIDE UK + ROI by
ashleighmills8
Advantages: Gets you from A to B, easy to use
Disadvantages: Occasionally needs rebooted due to errors, sound switches itself back on
Just over a year ago I started in my current job which is a community based job, meaning I travel around and visit people in their homes. As I have big difficulties with map reading and directions, I knew immediately that a sat nav was going to be a must ...
