    I think that this is a fair product for the price. Sometimes it takes a long time to find a valid GPS signal but the more you use it the better it works. I used it up north in the boonies and it worked great. Just make sure you use it a few times before a big trip so that it can find GPS signal easier.

    Separately picked up a waterproof mount and am using this on my motorcycle with a portable charger. It works perfectly. Very well worth the cost.

      Hi John, thanks for the great review! We're happy to hear you like the VIA 1515M.
      It's also nice to hear you found a fitting mount to use the device on a motorcycle! The device itself isn't waterproof, so extra protection will be needed when used on a motorcycle. Let us know if you have any questions. Cheers, Hanna at TomTom TomTomInc.
