Advantages: Easy to use

Disadvantages: Slow gps pickup

I have owned this portable satellite navigation system for a few years and since then I haven't bothered changing as this is that good. One thing you must note is that a GPS signal cannot be achieved indoors which makes planning routes a hassle if its raining outside. The item itself is very strong and can easily survive a drop and luckily it does come with a carrying case and one years worth of traffic updates for free although this may be outdated if the offer has a expiry date. I chose this product itself due to the strong backing provided by the brand tomtom which pioneers in these sort of GPS systems and even though at the time there were more advanced systems I would only use this product a few times a year so I might as well go cheap if you call £239 cheap. Overall a great product for beginners.

Summary: Good overall
