Review: TomTom XL 350-TM GPS device

 

The XL 350-TM provides TomTom's usual impressive navigation features. Included lifetime traffic and lifetime map updates make this one of the most feature-packed GPS devices available for the price.

All XL 350 models, like the XXL 550 models, can be upgraded to a recently announced operating system upgrade. (By contrast, XXL 540 and XL 340 models cannot be upgraded with the latest OS update.) The new operating system includes quick access to the...

I like the display

Good Product

 

Not a bad GPS but still not the easiest to program. Some addresses are not readily accepted (easier to do it online) and some routes offered are longer than normal with no option to modify. Would be great if you were offered options (similar to...
