TomTom Start Satnav GPS Navigation System Released

Tweet

TomTom’s latest budget Satnav in-car GPS system, known as the TomTom Start, has just hit the UK though, as yet, there’s actually been no official word from TomTom concerning the device (so the appearance and availability of the TomTom Start has come as somewhat of a surprise).

As indicated above, the TomTom Start very much comes in at the lower end of the market in terms of features with the device, which measures in at a particularly compact 94 x 81 x 20mm, sporting a 3.5” 320 x 240 resolution touchscreen display offering a ‘new simplified menu’ which would indicate that the TomTom Start may well be aimed at novice users (though who are unfamiliar with such devices) though, of course, simpler menus offering simplified features also help lower the unit’s price point thus making it budget friendly

Supplied with a semi-permanent EasyPort mount allowing the Start to ‘slip discreetly into your pocket and handbag’, the device comes with QuickGPS Fix and Map Share Correction functionalities as well as smart IQ Routes technology which should see you getting to your intended destination in the shortest amount of time (thanks to the device analysing traffic snarl ups and speed restrictions to gain you the best possible routing). The device also comes pre-loaded with a speed camera database.

The TomTom Start is available in the UK as of now and will set you back just shy of a wallet friendly £120.
