TomTom XL 335TM 4.3Inch Portable GPS Navigator Comments:
5.0 out of 5 stars Needed Lane assist feature,
June 19, 2010 This review is from: TomTom XL 335TM 4.3Inch Portable GPS Navigator (Electronics) I move to the Dallas/Fort Worth area at the start of 2010 and I found out the hard way that I really needed lane assist on my GPS. I was frustrated with the Garmin I had, which was an older model and it needed a map update. So I needed a GPS that had lane assist and found this one with life time map update and traffic. I had only used a Garmin so I wanted to try a Tom Tom out and the XL 335TM wasn’t on the market yet. So I went and bought a 340 to use in the mean time. I found the maps more accurate with the Tom Tom. I could start entering my destination while still in my apartment complex setting still. When I done this on the Garmin it thought I was on the near by interstate. It kept saying recalculating when I would get out onto the freeway. I used the 340 for 13 days since that was as long as I could before I couldn’t return it for a full refund. I then went and tried out a Magellen with a 7 inch screen. The unit was so heavy it kept falling off the windshield. The maps was the same as the Garmin, couldn’t enter my destination while setting in my apartment complex. Only the Tom Tom had the streets of the apartment complex in its maps. Then I quickly returned the Magellen, which I did not like. The Magellen couldn’t find some addresses and wouldn’t even let you enter them. However, once you got to the place it would show the address correctly. I also tried a new Garmin which didn’t correct the situation of knowing I was at my apartment complex and not on the near by interstate. I was able to try all three major brands and I can tell you I am so please with the Tom Tom which has by my opinion the BEST MAPS. The unit came with the traffic interface cord and the IQ maps works great in the DFW area. It will route you around the heavy traffic and get you to the destinations quicker. Sometime I have to go out in the middle of the night, it will take you on the interstate and most direct route, but during the day it will take you to a different route but get you there faster then the interstate. I like that. If you ever think you will be in a large metroplex area even once let me advise you to get a GPS with lane assist. You will have to glance up at the unit to see in the lower left hand corner what highlighted lane you need to be in. You can’t always depend on what it is saying. Also it will let you know if you are going too fast in the lower right hand corner. The basic operation is a little different then the Garmin and the Magellen, but now that I am use to it I like it better. It is a lot easier to find as designation with zip code and I am used to a QWERTY keyboard layout which is the default setting. One other thing I might add is that you have to use the USB cable that came with the unit to update it. The cable that came with my camera would fit, but kept saying the Tom Tom was unknown device. At first I thought it was the Tom Tom unit itself after the first update, but I was using the wrong cable. Also the Tom Tom servers that update the software with have a slow connection. The update took almost an hour even with my fast 12 mbps connection speed. When picking a GPS unit you really have to ask yourself what features you want. I recommend the lane assist feature in this GPS unit. It has saved me a lot of wrong turns.
1.0 out of 5 stars Tomtom does zero QC testing,
May 16, 2010 This review is from: TomTom XL 335TM 4.3Inch Portable GPS Navigator (Electronics) The PC software (TomTom HOME) doesn’t work correctly with this GPS out of the box. Plug in, click update, and it doesn’t have space (on the GPS to install the updates. That’s 100 stock. Activation Code (for lifetime maps, etc) also didn’t work. Phone support said mine was the first phone call he had ever received for the 335 product. Had me manually remove all the languages on the GPS other than English (great other than no so helpful if I have someone that needs another language in the car) then try the update again… Failed to write to the GPS on download. During reboot the unit switched to Dutch for a bit… Redone manually transfered files over, after slicking the flash space (read from a help forum), and the maps work, but it doesn’t work with the FM traffic (included, that’s the T in the model name), and the activation code for the updates still doesn’t work. Software glitches at such a fundamental level that it is clear TomTom didn’t QC the US maps with TomTom HOME in combination with this product (335TM).
That aside…
Good things on the 335TM:
The mount is great so far, very solid
Routing quality is very good
Bad things (some duplication vs above):
Screen completely washes out with sunlight
Zeros are often omitted on spoken directions. Eg, the 405 freeway would be called out as 4,5. 805 would be called out as Interstate 8,5. (coma indicating separate digits spoken)
FM traffic not working with map on the unit
Activation doesn’t work
Errors on updates/transfers forcing restart
TomTom HOME tries to install things that will not fit (by default on first click update)
TomTom technical support saying future map sets would be broken up, so parts of the country could be left off to free space. This is a new GPS bought in 2010; I haven’t had to break up mapsets on Garmin GPSs since their StreetPilot III. 4GB of flash is /cheap/, and all this set takes is a bit over 2GB. Poor cost cutting on the part of TomTom.
