Who cares? 2 GB are 2 GB Everything for the progress, um! the shareholders
He never receive a truthfully response from TT for his legitimate objections...
If TT were honest and would say: it's getting too expensive, the costs for the supporting of 2 device concepts are too big. But this bulls**t...

I will tell you. A damn stupid dumb voice that mispronounces many things and understands little except volume up/down, and cannot understand numbers or road names. She understands instructions of little importance, hardly ever need, but the numbers and street names or postcodes seem too difficult. So apart from live traffic and updates without a pc and smaller size. The older units were great before, and have steadily got worse. The good things either removed or unavailable now, for a few new things that no one really needs.
As for route via contacts (laughable- more like cryable). May as well forget that.
Usually quicker to search google and paste to MyDrive (with a computer) so need a pc/laptop/tablet.
MyDrive is good when you paste a location obtained from google into search and then sends route to unit
As far as I see things is the live routes and traffic benefit
In summary, when this GO5200 traffic or routing is less than my inbuilt GPS with WiFi HotSpot in the car with WiFi dashcam 4K I will keep it. I only keep it for the traffic and routes, and Go Mobile on Android is as good. I quite often forget to put the GO5200 in the car, but never forget my phone.By the way, I have free map updates and traffic etc on GO Mobile to March 2020 (Android).
TomTom used to be great, but I get the feeling that now they do not care and just want to put new things on us. Some of which have been on other manufacturers for ages. It might be an idea to listen to the many users for once, rather than try getting new customers in a market close to being full.
Actually, I can press one button and a real live person answers to my request and sends route to the Nav on the car.
Now that is actually useful when you have very little info. (Let them do the searching) It works really well tooOne day, someone might make things work perfectly before release. Sadly not in my or your lifetime. At least by finding problems and sorting them, we are still alive.

I may have slaggeg off TT recarding my GO5200 as there were so many things wrong. A soft reset made no difference and no myconnect or loaging maps etc or traffic or speed cams from 9th Jan. I was gitting really pissed off, but I did a hard reset. had to load wifi and phone stuff, but nothing lost and maps downloaded and mydrive, speedcams and traffic working. So all is fine now. So why was it needed? And why did it happen and why from the tomtom messages did it not show? So spent the best part of a week with a crap unit when a hard reboot would have sorted it in a few mins?
A soft reboot is power off and hold power on button to see stuff. A hard reboot is use the reset unit from settings then reset device. if you only format memory card as i did, it shows you have lots of memory but is fast and did not help. on beboot i had 5GB free memory. Only by doing a Recet device do things work again properly.
Sorry, not a rant, but you need to know these things for the futureOne day, someone might make things work perfectly before release. Sadly not in my or your lifetime. At least by finding problems and sorting them, we are still alive.
