Framework

Slotting below last year's XL 340, XL 250 does not seem very different. The style is close to the body on identical, with the only visual difference that we could be up XL 250 is the lack of money from his glass pipe in a room divider. The XL 250 is equipped with a resistive touch screen of 4.3 inches that has been given a classification standard 320x240 resolution.

On the back of the XL 250 is a great keynote speaker loud and clear. Around the windshield EasyPort based TomTom, which, while compact and ingenious falls too easily when you adjust the angle of the element.That, of course, unless you know the trick is to recover the aircraft without hesitation, taking both the display and the speaker at your settings. Unfortunately, the first review unit we tested had a sucker not work.

TomTom XL 350 TM Car GPS Review: Free Map Updates and Traffic Service

09.08.10

With the introduction of the XL 350 series into the waist of its car GPS lineup, TomTom rolls a lot of what consumers are looking for into one ready-to-hit-the-road package. That includes a 4.3-inch (diagonal) widescreen (as opposed to a 3.2-inch shield on lower-priced models); and in the case of the XL 350 TM model tested here, free sincere-time traffic detection and avoidance, and free map updates. The "T" in the XL 350 model designation stands for its unshackle traffic service, and the "M" for free map updates. Be sure to shop for the TM version if you want both of these features. There are three other, decrease-priced XL 350 models.

The real-time traffic updates are conveyed to the element via an RDS-TMC receiver that is built right into the power cord, resulting in a service that works above-board out of the box with no muss or fuss. In my highway tests around metro Philadelphia during rush hours, the TomTom XL 350 TM's above service worked well, highlighting traffic severity in red, orange, or yellow, and suggesting alternate routes that changed as transportation conditions changed. To help you decide where to go, the unit shows and announces your estimated movement delay time, and the estimated times for suggested alternate routes. None of the traffic services are skilled yet, but I find they have improved steadily over the past few years, and TomTom is at the leading edge of development on this feature.
