User Reviews about TomTom XL 340-S 4.3-Inch Portable GPS Navigator

I looked at product reviews on lots of different models. This one had a good screen quality rating and is 4.3 inches, so he can see it well. I'm glad I didn't go any smaller or with a lesser screen. He wouldn't have been able to see the maps clearly and would have to rely on voice instructions. He's 45 and his eyes aren't that bad but he does all his work on computers and is used to good/large monitors. -- Husband loved it

Overall, reasonably satisfied with product. Status display is quite readable, However, Text to speech on street names is sometimes unclear, or even incorrect. Full Brightness is not adequate for seeing on a clear sunny day. -- Tomtom XL 340-S

It starts up real fast, real real if you compare to Garmin. The lane assistance features are good. It doesn't catch signals at times and the only way to make it work is to restart which is really bad. Overall, it is ok. -- It is ok

First, let me say after reading most of the reviews here and now having had the 340-S for about a week now, I can write my own preliminary review.

- I received the unit as promised for a decent price: $119. I had no trouble installing the TomTom Home 2.7 app- I use Windows 7 Pro. I went through the initial updates with no major problems.

- I did have a minor glitch: When running initial updates, I was asked by Windows if I wanted to run Scandisk on the TT drive. It was at this point, during additional updates I received an error waring that the updates could not be completed. I ran the Scandisk as recommended by Windows and retried Updates: successful. Same thing on the "Use Onetime Map update" got about 90% and then it fail, No Maps! I called Support and the support tech walked me through how to restart the map download to device. Worked well.

Like any product, there will be some quirks to how it works and is maintained. But for the price, I am quite satisfied.

Parting thought: I only wish I could reduce the size of the map by say, leaving out Mexico. I do not travel there , in a car at least. As it is, I can only have one computer voice available at one time. -- For the money, a great value.
