TomTom Start 60 Europe Pro Reviews

Outstanding navigation and a lovely screen, but a little on the expensive side

The TomTom Start 60 Europe is easily one of the best sat navs we've reviewed. The large screen, clear navigation and accuracy of the maps makes it a joy to use. The voice navigation, complete with spoken street names, is calm and clear, and it's easy to switch to a different voice if you're not happy. We did find the mounting a little fiddly, and would have prefered the power button to be allocated on the opposite edge to the mounting system, but you will get used to this with time. The camera warnings from the map share community need some fiddling with to get right as well, although again it isn't too difficult to get this right over time. Overall, these minor negatives don't upset the fact that this sets the standard for car navigation right now.

The TomTom Start 60 is the company's biggest Satnav yet. Had the company released this device 5 years ago we would have been aghast with the size of the screen. Now as mobile phone screens get bigger and bigger, 6-inches seems right for a GPS. If you need to get from A to B and don't like the idea of using your tidily mobile phone's screen. This is probably going to be the answer. It doesn't have all the bows and bells you might want, but it will get you to where you are going, and tell you the time you can say you'll be there by.
