Let’s take a look at TOMTOM VIA 52 5″ Sat Nav with Case in more detail and see what makes it worthwhile of a review score of 8.8 out of 10.If you have your heart set on a particular brand or even a selection of brands then we’d suggest you spend a bit of time writing up a list of the brands that you would happily buy. This can really help you in narrowing down the selection when it comes to choosing a product. For example, over at Currys PC World you can filter products by brand, so you could filter just to show the brands on your list. This is especially useful knowing that there are 24 Sat Nav to choose from at Currys PC World.

Connect your navigation device to a different USB port on your computer. You should plug the USB connector directly into a USB port on your computer and not into a USB hub or USB port on a keyboard or monitor.

If you like the idea of a connected sat nav but don't want to break the bank on a premium model with built-in data connection, the Via 53 could be for you. The TomTom Via 53 is slow to boot up at first, but once it's on it performs very well. The user interface is clean and clearly marked, making it easy to get started, and to read when you're on the move. As we've found on other TomTom models, the neat right-hand bar that displays cameras and petrol stations works well, leaving the mapping nicely clutter-free. We have a new portal just for retail partners. The portal offers straight forward support, specifically catered to retailers. Fast, easy solutions, with no need to log in. Change - Install a map with different coverage to get a smaller or larger version. Some maps allow you to select versions with different country coverage so you can install a smaller map that still suits your needs.

The TomTom Via 53's 5-inch display is a good balance between offering a decent amount of real estate and not being so large that it dominates your dash. Consider the brand. We’ll go into more detail in a moment about brand and whether TomTom is your best option for Sat Nav. But the point here is just to make sure you’re factoring in brand when considering the quality of a product. Some brands will be better known for quality than others, and no doubt some of the much higher quality brands will attract a higher price for their products.Consider the price. We’ll dive into a lot more detail on the price of TOMTOM VIA 52 5″ Sat Nav with Case shortly, but in terms of quality, the obvious advice here is ‘you get what you pay for’. It’s really just being aware that if you’re buying the cheapest of the Sat Nav from Currys PC World you might not expect the same level of quality as you’d get from a decent quality product like TOMTOM VIA 52 5″ Sat Nav with Case.

Garmin's DriveSmart 51 LMT-D sports a 5-inch display and comes with a full set of European maps that can be updated via Wi-Fi. There's also Bluetooth hands-free calling, voice-activated navigation and onscreen smart notifications (calls, texts and other app alerts). When using voice control you're restricted to limited phrases that the Via 53 offers up at each step, but don't let that put you off – it works very well, and saves you having to play around with the screen as you're driving. To activate this mode you just need to say 'Hello TomTom'. Note : Resetting your device removes all your saved places and settings, including your language, voice, and warning settings. For newer devices When you buy a new memory card, you don't need to format the card before installing your maps. New memory cards are formatted to FAT32, which is the correct format for use with navigation devices.The TomTom Via 52 has a 5-inch screen which, for us, is a perfect size for a sat nav. In TomTom terms, the Via range is slap-bang in the middle of what the company offers. Uninstall - Delete the selected map. If you have several maps installed you can delete maps to free up space, but you always need to have at least one map installed on your device. Charge your device for at least 2 hours before trying to turn it on again. Make sure the charging light on your device is on. Connecting to the MyDrive app is nice and straightforward, with the live traffic information coming in really handy on a couple of trips we took.
