'Our XXL's EasyPort was prone to popping off while adjusting.'
'TomTom's trademark mount can be tricky to tighten, but it helps keep the unit simple and compact despite its large display.'
'A now-standard 4.3in touchscreen is easy to see, even in direct sunlight, and the interface is intuitive - more so, given that you can limit what menu options are shown onscreen.'
'Plus, the unit doesn't power down automatically when you shut the car off, adding another extra step to the process, or leaving you with a dead battery more often than you'd like. '

'The new "50" series models also include TomTom's "IQ Routes," which calculates fastest routes and travel times based on historical data for road travel speeds rather than posted speed limits, and one of my favorites, Advanced Lane Guidance, which speaks and clearly displays the correct lane for your next turn on a multi-lane highway.'

'On the down side, while the Dakota 20's trim form factor makes it a pleasure to take on the trail, the trade-off is a screen that's on the small side, meaning you won't see as much of a map without scrolling. '
'Boasting a bright 3.5" touchscreen LCD, easy to use software and Bluetooth capabilities, the TomTom GO 300 is one of the most impressive GPS units we have seen so far.'
