TomTom Via 1625, you'll love it

Only used a few times but seems intuitive. Some things that potential buyers should be aware of; 1. It takes some time, around an hour or two, when you run the first updates.2. 8g of storage onboard isn't a ton if all the US, Mexico and Canada work there. Remove other languages to save space in case you have more maps you want to download or buy SD card.3. And I checked it on the phone with Tomt because I was a bit confused. If you update and then go to the About category on the GPS itself, it says you have 1615. Because the software is the same. Okay, I know it's easier, but you paid and bought 1625, so it pisses the guy off if you think they put 1615 in your nice new box that says it's 1625. No big deal. Good value for money and you don't spend a lot of money. Obviously a good reputation, they've had them in the past, but it's only in the last few years that I've traveled more so I upgraded. It's very nice not to rely on phone navigation in big cities. Not the best but good value for money and does everything you buy it for and I'm hard to please. I give it a solid 4 stars.

Pros
  • Voice guidance in over 30 different languages
Cons
  • Doubt it
