Great product....just what I was looking for....another competitor product doesn’t have the features of this Garmin product/reputation. Takes a bit of time to fully understand and learn the product features...but once you do, you’ll love it

Didn’t like the slow speed. Didn’t like orange color, didn’t like plastic finish, felt cheap. Didn’t like the beeping sounds, also sounded cheap. Really wanted to like it since it cost so much, but it should work fast and make me happy. But it just made me regret my purchase the longer I tried to make it work.

Like the unit. Fairly easy to use. When I set up 3 instant messages made mistake and made me primary. Couldn’t figure out why I was receiving message meant for wife. Now I know why. Need to make her primary. I like not having tons of icons you don’t need or use. Keep it simple. Have a garmin 755 gps. I hate it. So much stuff on it I don’t need. Makes it hard to navigate through screes I don’t need. Felt like Inreach pricey. No one else really makes one to compete with it.

The only con, is that its not a user friendly usb drive type mapping GPS like the GPSMAP64. I will end up carrying it as well as my GPSMAP64 in the bush and mountains. As a Satellite text messenger, I find it to be the top of the line for features and reliability after studying and comparing it to the others on the market. Buy once, cry once. But it stands alone from smartphone which is a requirement in my situations. The Earthmate app that bluetooths to it is fantastic as well. That said, the maps it has are good enough for a tracking and rescue device and a general purpose wilderness gps. Second day Out of the box, wife drove off in the dark30 mountain canyons where cell phone will not work for a good hour. She had a flat, while I tracked her on the garmin explore site web interface. She was able to text me with iridium and i was able to locate her and launch a rescue/repair operation. It is now on its 4th day of use now and has gone from 100% battery to 80%. it runs about three hours + per day for the round trips in the canyons. We have ordered a second one so we can cut out the cell phone and wifi/cellular routines and go from inreach to inreach. It is a great tool to have and is well worth the cost and the time investment of learning to use it.Read full review

So far so good. Battery life is a little misleading but if you tweak the settings you can stretch it out. the Garmin service is reasonable annually and the satellite comms capabilities has a pricing structure that is doable for most budgets and needs. The unit is robust and easy to use.
