right I mean you are holding a device which bounces a signal to a satellite 800 miles above you and its displaying your exact location down to 3 feet. All developed in a blink of an eye in respect to how long man has been here. He was a germ on a rock 3.5 million years ago and evolved into a conscious creature that made technology so you don't lose your little way........... Yea the plastic molded case which contains micro electrical circuits... something we only discovered 250 some years back when some guy's kite was struck by lightning. hmmm yea I cannot believe it is 2021 and the GPS still looks like it is twenty years old. How disappointed of mankind must you be. LOL What a bummer man. :)
any thoughts on the garmin montana 700 i or regular. It is heavy and expensive but looks like it offers everything you could ask for in a gps. I just don't like the buttons on the 66 although in colder climates it may work better for in the winter.
Hey Dale. The Garmin Montana 700 and 700i are great choices. How do you plan to use it? The 700i comes with InReach technology, so it allows you to send SMS, etc. However, for it to work you will need to pay for a separate InReach subscription so you need to keep that in mind.
Please suggest. Etrex32x or the Etrex22x. I usually hike and trek on known trails. Rarely go to high altitude locations. I do have a altimeter wrist watch (Casio Rangeman). Is a altimeter and electric compass in a handheld gps worth it..?
The 32x has a barometric altimeter, compass, ANT+ compatibility, and the ability to add custom maps. If that's not super important for you, then you can save some money and go for the 22x.
Is there a significant difference in gps reception between a dedicated handheld unit and a modern smartphone? I mean, most modern smartphones have pretty decent gps, with glonass, galileo and beidou even.
@Nicholas von Ohlen Just what i did, i got a cheap rugged waterproof smartphone and load it with maps, it works fine, just the battery dies a bit faster that i'd like it it's ok, no need for a Garmin, at least for me
@@Frank020 It does matter as you can't load maps from the web, but if you already have the maps, it doesn't affect the gps or the built in compass of the phone; you should always carry a map and a compass as a back up tho.
This video is NOT sponsored. The reality is that Garmin makes the best GPS devices out there. However, if you have any non-Garmin suggestion, please do let us know. So we can review it and give you our opinion.
There are more brands making GPS, but we found the best ones to be Garmin. Do you have any non-Garmin GPS suggestions? We would be happy to have a look at those too.
If you want something more simpler, I would suggest you to look at some smartphone apps, like Gaia. They are much easier to use than a Garmin GPS device.
John 3:16-21 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.

eTrex even has usb 1.1 with transfer rates around 500kb/s
@@LockTimeClarity whoa dude man so deep! Ya wanna go smoke pot out of an apple behind the gym later??
Great choices. No matter how good smartphones are, I always carry a GPS as a backup/for emergencies
Very smart John.
I would rather one or the other but I can't seem to find the right phone
no. carry a compass and map.
which one ? i want to get the edge 1030 plus but not sure if its good for hiking
I carry a paper map as a backup to my iphone app, lol.
My tip is the etrex 32x.
Great choice!
great review
Really informative review, thank you!!!
You're welcome!
Are all these gps have a built in battery?.

You're just reading the highlights from the garmin website, NO handson information at all.
Nice reviews!
Glad you like them!
Thank you 👍
You are welcome
Great video...... thx
You're welcome!
Any recommendation for and ultra runner, who wants a crew or family to be able to track them, Bonus points for cheap or light.
People can track you on Strava if you set it up to send them a beacon I always ride with one on so someone can know where I am at if anything happens
Great suggestion Travis.
Do you actually have the GPSes? If so, why don't you show them? If not, what is your review based on?
Yeah I looked up reviews of the top ones she recommended and found a lot of bad reviews and experiences

@@erikmetal666 a lot of places I go have no reception, does this matter? Or, maps already loaded and use compass and maps.

@@Frank020 if gps reception is what you lack, then you can use the maps, but it won't pin point your position, or it won't be accurate

Apparently

@@TheAdventureJunkies . i have an old magellan. i love it, but it is broken
Thanks - this helps - presented well.
You're welcome!
Another Garmin commercial ...sigh. I am a hiker NOT a rocket scientist ...these things are WAY to complicated.
If you want something more simpler, I would suggest you to look at some smartphone apps, like Gaia. They are much easier to use than a Garmin GPS device.
@@TheAdventureJunkies Right on..thanks!
I bought a cheap second hand apple iPhone 5 SE. MAPS + COMPASS + GPS. VERY PETITE too
Absolutely. Smartphones are also a good option and there are more and more navigation apps coming to the market.
@@TheAdventureJunkies in the interim period I have ordered a garmin 66s. More of a toy than anything. Thanks for the reply
