Boasting a 4.3-inch widescreen LCD for easier viewing in the car, the TomTom XL 330 and XL 330S features the plug and play ease of use, rock-solid navigation, and sleek design we've come to expect from TomTom. Both models come pre-loaded with highly accurate maps for the United States and Canada, with TomTom Map Share technology that enables you to instantly modify street names, street direction, and POIs on your own device.

Features:

• Portable GPS device with 4.3-inch widescreen touch LCD
• Preloaded with US and Canadian maps from TeleAtlas and millions of POIs, with ability to add and customize your own
• EasyPort mount easily attaches to your windshield and folds away for easy portability
• Traffic-capable with optional RDS-TMC traffic receiver (sold separately)
• Includes car charger; internal battery provides up to 3 hours of continuous usage

Both models share the same navigation and user interface features. Howerver, the XL 330S adds text-to-speech, which means instead of hearing "turn right in 50 feet," you'll hear "turn right in 50 feet at Ohio Street."

bought this unit for the wide screen and street name instructions feature - have used for two vacation trips to unfamiliar areas and so far it is everything I expected. Very accurate, good instructions, good street name pronunciation and very quick rerouting if wrong turn taken.
First unit I received had out of date maps which tommtom would not update for free, but Amazon quickly shipped me a replacement unit that updated maps free at tomtom home with no problem. Amazon really stands behind the items I have purchased through them. [...] -- customer review

Well, I'd have to start by saying that this is my first GPS navigator. So, I can't compare it to any other product out there. However, I've searched this product reviews online prior to buying it & it was almost always well praised. Check Editor's review on [...] for instance.
OK, I was a little hesitant to buy a 'factory refurbished' product but judging by this piece, I have no reason to do so any more. It looks & functions as a brand new. And it is a great value for the money.

1. It installs very easily.
2. It picks up signal fairly quick. I've tried it on cloudy days too & it worked as fine.
3. I thought at first its battery dies quick but honestly it never died on me while driving. It takes somewhere between 1-2 hours to fully charge. Besides, it comes with a car charger so that shouldn't be a problem for long travels.
4. It comes with a GREAT SPEAKER. The sound is really LOUD & CLEAR. I've tested it while driving with the radio on & I was having a conversation with a friend in the front passenger seat. I had Tom Tom XL330S on 90% volume. It was loud enough to set me focused back on the road!
5. The screen is really wide & comfortable to look at.
6. Mounting & dismounting this product is rather unique. I didn't like it at first but I soon got used to it. Now, no problems at all.

Bottom Line: I'd recommend Tom Tom XL330s to a friend. Great performance, Ease of use, Great Value for your money.
Make sure you buy TOM TOM XL330s and not a similar product. I'd also buy a carry case with it since the package ships free. [...] -- customer review
