TomTom Go 600

With a 6-inch screen and generous features, the TomTom Go 600 goes above and beyond the average standalone GPS device, but it may be overkill for some.

Large touch screen. Voice control. Free traffic alerts.

Traffic alerts require linking to smartphone. Confusing voice prompts.

Navigation, MyDrive App, and Conclusions When navigating, I found some of the voice prompts confusing. Sometimes it told me to keep right when I was simply driving straight down a highway. That led the Miles to Next Turn indicator to be inaccurate,...

TomTom GO 600

An outstanding sat-nav with a six-inch screen and lifetime traffic

Speed warnings as you approach jams ; Lifetime European map updates and Traffic service ; Redesigned menu interface with unified search

Speed camera updates still require subscription ; Weather and local search not part of online services ; Premium over smaller-screened GO models

You also get lifetime updates to the maps that came with the device - either UK or EU, depending on model. There are some downsides, however, particularly with the European mapping version of the GO 600 we tested. If you want to use the GO 600's Live...

TomTom GO 600

TomTom's premium GPS has an all-new and very clear interface that makes searching for locations a charm.

Simple searchable interface ; Good spoken street names ; Excellent rerouting

6 inches is almost too large for a GPS ; Power button is hard to press

The GO 600 is a great GPS that works simply. TomTom's improvements to its UI at first appear to be mere window dressing, but with extended use, it quickly becomes apparent how clever they are. They're good for quick searching and choosing locations...

sat nav - ease of use

Once we got it set up after having to buy a memory card seperately for it, it was very easy and straightforward to use and the displayed and reported info is first rate.

Great size screan.

Great sat nav once I had connected it to my pc and updated the software. Prior to that it was missing some essential features like alternative routes. Once updated it was very impressive. Would have been disappointed with product if I had not had the...

Good but beware of different models of same number

Its a good sat nav, but I am not happy with one major thing. There are different models of the same model number - Go 600, there are older ones released in 2013 and newer ones released in 2014, if you are unfortunate to buy the 2013 Go 600 you dont get...

basic sat nav

For this price I expected a fully featured sat nav but I find it just about useable. Very basic compared to my previous Navigon that was one third the price. Downloading updates is intern ably long. Very limited route choices eg no main roads only. In...
