TomTom Go 2535 M Live review: TomTom Go 2535 M Live - Roadshow

TomTom Go 2535 M Live

TomTom's Live Services provide top-notch HD Traffic reporting and other useful services in a safe manner. The glass capacitive touch screen of the ; is extremely responsive and does a good job of showing off the updated interface's crisp graphics....

While TomTom's updated interface is much easier to use than the old version, it can still be a bit confusing at first.

With its connected services and HD Traffic, the TomTom Go 2535 M Live performs well as a GPS navigator, whether you like to plan ahead or set destinations with voice command while you're on the road.

TomTom GO 2535 M LIVE

Low screen resolution. Numerous bugs. Some organizational issues with POIs.

Other Features and Conclusions The GO 2535 M LIVE contains 4GB of internal flash memory for map storage, as well as a robust sounding Bluetooth hands-free mode in case your car doesn't have one built in. As we've seen with other connected GPS devices,...

TomTom GO 2535M LIVE review

The TomTom GO 2535M LIVE is the current top of the line navigator from TomTom. Start with a 5” capacitive touchscreen, add LIVE connected services such as weather, gas prices, HD Traffic and Google Local Search. Then tack on Bluetooth, what could be...

Connected LIVE services can be very helpful; first year of service included ; Best voice command accuracy in the industry ; Lifetime map updates ; Excellent mount ; Bluetooth sound quality is very good

Firmware seems a bit buggy, with some lockups and reboots ; LIVE services cost $59.95 to renew after the first year ; No multi-destination routing; only one via point allowed ; MyTomTom desktop app remains weak ; Limited speed limit coverage

The GO 2535M LIVE is a very nice unit, and the LIVE features are well implemented and integrated. The biggest downside is that the unit is occasionally glitchy. Hopefully this will be resolved in a future firmware update. Otherwise, there is very...

"DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!"

I have called TomTom numerous times. Their tech support is based in Mexico. They do not speak English. Most of the time, I cannot get them to understand the problem. When they do understand the problem, they have me reset the unit which only helps...

Great, when it works.

Will send you up one way streets the wrong way. It gets fixated on wrecks. It will insist on taking you off your route to take you through an accident. If you prform a soft reset of the unit, it will start working correctly again.

"Misleading information on box about lifetime maps."

The box for this GPS states prominently in two places that you get "Lifetime Traffic and Maps" and that it comes with maps of US, Canada, Mexico, and Europe. I was shocked when I tried to update my Europe maps to be directed to a web page that required...

Large screen. Good warnings about exceeding speed limit. Reasonably good text to speech directions. Good data on nearby gas stations, shops, etc.

Unlike what it says on the box lifetime updates does not apply to Europe. EXTRA CHARGE FOR THAT!
