Gave up on Garmin, went to TomTom

Arsey · Aug 25, 2019

I gave up on Garmin last year.Been using them since Quest days and had many including 2610, Nuvi 220,Zumo 660,590 etc .
But I’ve bought a Tom Tom 550.
It’s so much more intuitive,you can plan routes on iPad/iPhone and it’ll send straight to the device and the device updates over WiFi which non of my Garmins ever did, though I believe the very latest may do now.

Much quicker to process stuff as quad core processor and also lifetime world mapping as opposed to charging a fortune for add ons like rip off Garmin.

Hi Arsey ,
What Nav app are you using on your IPad , that is compatible with the Tom Tom ?
As a long time user of Garmin i was considering a shift to
Tom Tom .
And does the shift from I pad to Nav ,go via Bluetooth ? , or do you require both hooked to wifi ?

Boatman, I have created you a dedicated thread or your question will probably get lost between bods’ ranting over Garmin products.

PS Suggest you PM Arsey, pointing him to this thread, in case he misses it.
