TomTom GO 740 LIVE Car GPS Receiver

Fantastic little device.

I have just upgraded from the TomTom One - I was very happy with the One, but the battery died, so I had to buy another. I chose the Go 740 Live because it features UK and EU maps, and because of the integrated Live services - I had seen these advertised on television. The 740 Live is great, has so much too offer. The best features are:
1) large, wide but slim-bodied design, sleek scratch resistant coating

2) Google integrated search - I switched on the gadget at home and searched for tack shops close to home, and it came back with some fab listings - shops I hadn't even known about in my area. Additionally, when I clicked on "more details" - it displayed a summary each shop, the phone number, the address, and you can navigate directly to it. If you have your bluetooth phone hooked up, you can even press on the 740 screen to dial the number through your TomTom.

3) The bluetooth hookup with your phone allows you to use the devise as a hands-free kit for your phone. If connected, you will see on the screen that someone is calling you. You can answer using the touch screen, and have a conversation (because the device has a built in microphone and speaker).

4) You can use voice commands to tell it where to navigate you to
5) The live traffic reporting is great
6) The function that allows you to find the cheapest price of fuel in your area is also great, and will probably save you the cost of the 740 over the course of the year!

Buy this TomTom GO 740 LIVE - you'll be delighted. I am.

Fast to switch on, great battery life, simple to use. I used a Tomtom 720T model before this is based on this model but packed full of features. I really like the new mount where the power cord attaches to the mount not the Tomtom so you don't need to plug in everytime - the traffic service is also built in so no extra wires needed. I've used the Live services for weather, Google search, Fuel finder and of course the traffic which saves me so much time as I travel alot. I can't find fault with this latest Tomtom, my wife even managed to use the 720 model in France where it was invaluable to find shops and navigate back to the Villa we hired once we had explored the area.

To sum it up Tomtom saves me time, hassle, fuel and probably my license! I could not do without it now. I've not tried any other models so can't compare but what else could you possibly add? or ask for?

This SatNav is THE BEST ever. I had a Sony & this TomTom is far removed from it.
The "Live" is a MUST. Buy one if you can. You will not be disapointed.

The best in this gps the IQ route system,sorry but nothing else!!!
It was very expensive,but very complicated,so there is not easy interface
Can not use the HD dimension on abroad (absolutely nothing).I had before the Tom Tom GO910 and i used the classic Traffic info on my gps,but with the GO740Live i can`t. When i leave the UK than this gps usage is only standard gps,which is would be much much more...
I`m not recommend,i think the GO930 is much better and sometimes cheaper!!!

An all round all-singing-all-dancing satnav. My only complaint would be with the live fuel prices which can be very out of date and will occasionally send you to a petrol station that doesn't exist.

Having owned a few Sat Nav systems a friend suggested I try a Tom Tom. I am on my way around the U.k and Europe for a beginning of my world road trip. So Far the 740 has proved itself a valuable asset. It was purchased as a used item from Ebay but has functioned almost 100% since purchase. It locked up once but was easily reset and soon I was on my way again!

Would I recommend it to someone else? Yes! It is simple to use and with a funny voice like harry the hamster added it actually adds to the fun of the journey instead of the robotic drivel you so often get, that can become a bore.

This was a terrible experience, perhaps the largest transaction for me (£208), the item never arrived, after many emails I had to raise a complaint, it took nearly four weeks to get my money back. I have since limited my transactions to around about £50/60.

this new tom tom is one of the best yet as a driver who excedes 350 miles a day i find this product amazing supercedes any previous model i owned the one xl europe before and it does not come anywhere near the go 740 live the features are far more advanced and the hands free phone system is excellent and the live system is phenomenal if considering buying a buying a new sat nav this is definately worth spending the extra on you get a lot more value for money and it is simple to set up and use straight from the box but remember to update your system as all features are updated by tom tom regularly bar far the best tom tom yet would recommend for any serious driver or professional driver

As a "Geriatric Gypsy" driving a Hobby 750 Campervan I have depended on a Garmin Street Pilot III to navigate my wife and I around UK and during the UK winter through France and Spain to Portugal. How many times have I heard the "female" voice of "Doris" (our name for the Garmin) say "off route recalculating" as a result of poor mapping on the Garmin. Because of this I decided to buy the TomTomm GO 740 Live. On our first run to Dorset from Hampshire the Tom Tom was fantastic, comprehensive instructions, it even impressed my navigator, my wife, she loves it. Here's hoping that future trips using the TomTom will be as successful particularly to Portugal in December. I cannot find fault at all with the TomTom in the short time I have used it.

Well worth the money, Lane Assist feature makes busy junctions a breeze and the traffic feature saves you time and money by diverty you around the traffic even if you are half way through you trip, it lets you know that there is a problem ahead and ask's, yes ask's you if you would like to take another route.
The speed camera and traffic light camera information are spot on as well.
