Some customer reviews of TomTom XXL Classic

Most helpful reviews

Janie, Warrington Occasional user

Score 9.0/10
Good points:
Large screen, easy to use, classic design. Like the small classic TomTom but with lane warnings and easier due to its large screen.. so leaning in and squinting to see the screen. No complaints yet and had it 4 months doing long and short journeys.
Bad points:
Like all Tom Tom's it gets screen lock on start up sometimes, switching it off and on again helps this.
The mount to put it on to the windscreen is very annoying, if you need to turn the satnav while driving it seems to easily pop off the mount side, the design doesn't click in very securely, but if you mount the device and then don't rotate it then it stays in place no problem.

    1. One of the 1st jobs you do when u get your new Tom Tom, is log onto the web site when the latest update is downloaded to the XXL. Yes, the lead that is provided is a standard USB fitting both your PC/Mac and the Cigg Lighter also plug, also provided. Cannot comment on an ariel extension as not needed myself.
      Roger replied on
