Tomtom GO 300 GPS: A Great Idea, but Worthy of Your Money?

byhwz1 Nov 25, 2005
62 Helpfuls 63 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 1 Comment
Pros Easy to use, portable, clear and understandable screens and voices, not too expensive
Cons Mediocre maps, battery is ok
Recommended it? Yes

I have turned down the GPS option on our last two cars. The reason being that I just did not think we would use it enough to make it worthwhile. I drive a lot for work, but usually to the same places. My wife has a few different routes in her daily routine, but nothing so far out that she cannot... Read full review »

Pros Easy to use, accurate, good reception/lock
Cons Dated maps, doesn't always give best route, not "off road" friendly
Recommended it? Yes

As the office expert on GPS technology, my boss asked me to test out his new Tom Tom GO 300 for him and let him know how to setup and use. This gave me a chance to evaluate it as well for a review here.

It is perfect for use in the car, especially for a beginner and/or for someone who is... Read full review »

A Quality GPS Device Let Down By Its Maps

15 Helpfuls 16 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 1 Comment
Pros Good quality hardware. Nice looking display. Intuitive user interface.
Cons Woeful maps organization. Old maps. A little too bulky for truely portable use.
Recommended it? No

The TomTom GO 300 is basically a Pocket PC, a GPS device, and a speaker, all rolled into a single unit. It's about 2" thick which means you won't be dropping it into your shirt pocket for a stroll around the city.

The user interface is very easy to use and has just about everything you... Read full review »

The Tom Tom Go 300 Will Get You To Where You Are Going

byaimeeb1224 Jan 22, 2008

Pros affordable, easy to use
Cons just a "basic" GPS; no text to speech
Recommended it? Yes

I was recently in the market for a budget-friendly GPS system for my husband. Neither one of us need a GPS system on a daily basis, but we felt it would be nice to have one for our occasional road trips. Two months before the holiday season, I purchased a Tom Tom Go 300 GPS for what I thought was a... Read full review »

Awesome Little GPS

Pros Very reliable; Can save frequently used addresses and select fastest or shortest routes.
Cons Does not pick up duplicate street names
Recommended it? Yes

I purchased my TomTom August 2006, when I got a job as a local courier for a delivery company. I simply could not have done this job without TomTom. I really like the fact that I never had to enter the address of my current location; I only needed to enter my destination and I had TomTom programmed... Read full review »

Pros Ease of use, good display, great voice directions, portibility.
Cons Display hard to see in direct sunlight, maps about 2 years old.
Recommended it? Yes

I've owned the Tomtom GO300 for about 7 months now (great Christmas gift from the wife!) and I've found it to be really easy to use and very accurate.

Open the box, plug in the SD card and turn it on. To aquire a GPS signal takes usually less than a minute, and you're off and running. You... Read full review »

Cons Obsolete maps. Inadequate manual. Poor docking device. Customer service makes false...
Recommended it? No

I have had this GPS for about 8 months and discovered on my very first long trip that the USA maps are so out of date that they should be an embarassment to TomTom. Some addresses in neighborhoods established 40 years ago are not available. Highway bypasses constructed in the past 5 years are not... Read full review »

Pros Good signal acquision, lots of different voices to choose from or download
Cons Difficult to connect to the mount, maps out of date, website and customer service suck
Recommended it? Yes

Good value for an inexpensive, low-end GPS. I compared several models on CDNet.com, and chose this one because of the features at that price level. Also, CDNet shopping allowed me to purchase it from a retailer at about 1/2 the normal price that the manufacturer was indicating on its web site, so... Read full review »
