TomTom One 130S

By Bonnie Cha (zdnet.com)

The TomTom One 130 and TomTom One 130S mark a new beginning for the company's line of basic GPS. You still get TomTom's hallmark ease of use and community features, but the portable navigation systems now boast more compact designs as well as a new ...

The TomTom One 130S is a reasonably priced entry-level GPS with a solid set of features and ease of use. Unfortunately, the system's barely audible voice directions ruin the experience.

TomTom One 130-S

By Craig Ellison (pcmag.com)

Text-to-speech functionality used to be a high-end feature on GPS devices, but that's been changing. The TomTom One 130-S ($149.95 list) is part of the company's entry-level lineup. Like the $129.99 base-model One 130, the One 130-S features a 3.5 ...

Maps for U.S. and Canada. Easy to use. Text-to-speech. Live traffic updates. Upgradable via "Home" application

Mounting bracket is a bit awkward to use. Low speaker volume. No SD card slot for map expansion

TomTom's new entry-level GPS offers a lot of bang for the buck from navigation leader.

"Agree to disagree with CNET reviewer"

By henryb9 (cnet.com)

Within the volume preferences, there is setting that allows you to adjust the volume to 100% with more than enough volume to be heard within the cab of any vehicle. Along with this feature there is a "Link volume to car speed" which works very well.

No household wall plug.

"Honestly speaking folks - STAY AWAY FROM TOMTOM"

By scorpio2562 (cnet.com)

OK folks, why do I hate TomTom? I have given ... 

Good looking, compact design. Easyport mount is compact. Clear, crisp adjustable audio. Maps of different countries are available.

Mapping SUCKS, customer service ABSOLUTELY sucks. Text to voice is OK except that this unit has trouble pronouncing some street names, especially foreign street names. map corrections are very limited

"Great - No volume issue"

By blomshield (cnet.com)

Does exactly what a GPS should do. No extras... 

Easy to use. Good directions.

Inconsistent use of the text to speech... Doesn't always say the next street name.
