TomTom Car Sat Nav Go 520 (5 inch, Updates via Wifi, Traffic via Smartphone, World Maps, Capacitive Screen)

So pleased with this purchase ( Go 520 wifi). The key thing is the wifi, as there are a lot of cheap Go 520s which are old and don't have the ability to update via wifi. I've really enjoyed using this, and it updates via my phone as I drive so that I can be rerouted if a traffic problem occurs. I've owned about 4 Tomtom's now and they've all been good. It is important to realise that Tomtom's idea of a lifetime is only about 5 years, so it was worth buying the new model rather than buying the older and cheaper 510. The device with its stand is quite heavy, and doesn't work with the rubber pad/disc mount that I have used with my previous Tomtom. However the screen mount is very secure. I would recommend this device despite the price, it just makes driving so much easier. Update 15/11/16 I had to return my first device as it stopped being able to find my wifi, and also was not getting traffic updates, which was a major reason for my purchase. Amazon were brilliant and sent a replacement the next day. The new unit appears to be working perfectly and has updated via wifi several times. The device shows whether it is connected to your phone via Bluetooth and lists calls, data and messages as 3 separate items. It appears that within wifi range, it does not connect to the phone for data, presumably using wifi instead. In the car, there have been several occasions when it is not connected to traffic updates, but as far as I can tell this only happens in weak signal areas (Vodafone). The information that Tomtom supplies didn't make this at all clear. Still very pleased having resolved my original problem.

Il faut acheter la mise à jour des radars (zones de danger) tous les 3 mous, +/- 25 € !

L'abbiamo usato anche in Argentina,la mappa l'abbiamo scaricata noi,ma non era completa per distributori e molti paesi in periferia,in Italia e Austria invece era ok

Un fiasco. Al no tener compatible el idioma español el aparato pierde toda su funcionalidad, que por otro lado, sería mucha. Obviamente, por lo anterior, no lee los mensajes de whatsaap, SMS, etc, No te dice ni por la calle que va, ni cual vas a coger ni nada de instrucciones, porque no lee el ESPAÑOL. No puedes meter el nombre de la calle por voz, porque no reconoce el idioma.Tampoco te dice los radares que son, únicamente suena una campanita y tienes que apartar la vista del frente para ver qué radar es, porque no lee el ESPAÑOL. Lo dicho un fiasco, incomprensible que Tomtom cometa esos fallos. Me estoy pensando devolverlo. Edito: Puesto en contacto con el servicio de atención al cliente de Tomtom me atiende un sr.. muy amable que me envía la voz de Mónica y todo queda solucionado. Cambio mi valoración

I have bought 2 of these units and they work well. I love the 'speed alert' feature, cos I have been caught before! Interestingly, the first unit was bought from another supplier in Australia and it came with local maps and local voices. James, real Ozzie, 'You have arrived at your destination - windows up, grab your sunnies and don't let the seagulls get your chips'!! This unit came from the UK with European maps and English/Scottish/irish voices! Maps simple to update.
