The GO 930 hasn't let me down in the six months that I've owned it. The 4.3 inch screen shows maps very crisply and the large size makes it easy to view directions while driving. The directions have been very accurate and I have not gotten lost once since owning it! I am most impressed with the IQ Routes feature, it gives the best shortcuts allowing me to not be stuck in traffic unnecessarily. This helps me cut down the time I am in the car. All in all, I am happy with the GO 930.

This is my thrird TomTom GO, and my last one.

Cons:
- Maximum display brightness is much darker than on my GO 920
- Bluetooth remote takes 10 sec to connect
- Bluetooth remote works for the first three times after turning the device on, then no longer. You have to reset the unit (!) for it to work again, very annoying!
- One button on the Bluetooth remote requires you to push it hard in order for it to detect you pressed the button.
- Accuracy of house numbers is not perfect - sometimes 0.2 miles away.
- TomTom seems to be reluctant to fix such issues and instead rests assured that nobody will return the product for 2 weeks repair since they may not be able to live without it for so long.

My husband works in IT for a living and is very gadget savvy. Even he was not able to navigate through the mess that Tom Tom took us through. You would think that a unit that costs more than $400 would be packed with features and run effortlessly, not the case at all! We have had all kinds of errors, such as file access errors, random shutting down and rebooting, being unable to find a route ANYWHERE from certain locations (in the middle of the city, you can't find a route home?????) and now, the backlight has just gone out, and it is not even 4 months old. This thing is not even worth $100, let alone $400. This is the experience we had AFTER we returned the first one. My coworker has the same model and she is on her 3rd Tom Tom (returned the first two) due to technical issues. Save yourself the headache and go with another brand. I will never buy another Tom Tom product again. We have a low end Garmin (Nuvi 260) and while it doesn't have the same advanced features, it also has never given us any problems at all.
