There’s free traffic data for life, too. But there’s no integrated ‘always connected’ feature for the Go 60. Instead, you connect to your smartphone via bluetooth and piggy back on its data connection. In practice that means you’ll need your smartphone plugged in and charging, too.
Which is easier to use Garmin or TomTom?
Garmin’s voice-command system works well overall and is much easier to use than TomTom’s (the only other brand that offers it).
Is TomTom better than Waze?
TomTom’s GO is the only paid-for navigation app that we would recommend, because it offers a simple layout and has a very useful speed-camera tool that makes up for the lack of search functions. Waze comes in third thanks to its traffic accuracy, although it needs to stop re-routing at the slightest sign of a hold-up.

Not only are TomTom GPS systems designed to give you the best possible route, but also calls on your cell phone won’t interrupt your directions the way they do on a smartphone GPS app. Our top pick, TomTom GO COMFORT 6, is a great all-around unit made even more convenient by WiFi connectivity.
What size screen does the TomTom Start 60 have?

How do I use TomTom’s new UI?

How is the start 60 mounted to my car?
The Start 60 is mounted to your car using a suction pad that can be locked in place securely, and is connected to its mount via a ball joint. This means the Start 60 can be posed in a variety of positions, which is handy because the screen has terrible viewing angles.
