TomTom GO 920 Reviews, User Feedback and Details
Rating: 6.9 / 10

Actual TomTom 920 User Feedback:

“I live in a rural area and the TomTom GO 920 couldn’t guide me to my home address. It was off by several miles! TomTom does not allow me to set a “home address”; it only allows me to type in the address. I had to return it, even though I was able to find all other locations.“

“As with another reviewer, I live in Hawaii. As he described, the unit does not work for Hawaii-based address formats.”

“I purchased all 3 of: the Garmin Nuvi 660, Garmin Nuvi 680, and the TomTom Go 920 to sample and do a thorough comparison… with the intention of returning the two that I liked the least.

My ultimate decision was the Garmin Nuvi 680.”

Verdict:

While most consumers loved all the fancy features that the GO 920 has, there were some serious complaints with the ability to enter non standard addresses.

GO with the Garmin nüvi 370 or nüvi 660.
