Compared to my old but trusty TomTom One XL, this new GO 5100 is cheese compared to my old chalk. Display is clearer & more interactive but the greatest difference is the speed of response. My One XL used to take many minutes to find satellites in our rural location. Go 5100 is virtually instantaneous. Better than that though, the speed of recalculating routes is amazing. I joined a long A-road queue, got fed up, hit alternative route, swung off a few yards down the road, took a country lanes tour and still made my client meeting with two minutes to spare! A great bit of kit & far better than some of the competing satnavs in my colleagues cars.

Recently purchased as old TOMTOM expired - Good features include lifetime maps & on screen scrolling & resizing. Finding locations is much better achieved via post code or ie company name Leaving it switched off to charge while driving - it keeps randomly switching on & is difficult to turn off Even doing this, the battery life is terrible - using the charger supplied the battery goes flat within 15 mins & keeps turning on & off while trying to follow the directions The only way to add POI was to "fix" my old TOMTOM export them & import to the new one ( cannot create , amend or delete POI once created )

I bought this GO 5100 to replace my LIVE 1005. The 1005 worked well and never let me down, but I got fed up paying about £150 per year for updates for maps, traffic and speed cameras. Whereas the updates for the 5100 are free. I'm still finding my way around the 5100.
