Bought this to map out trails on our property. Worked great once I figured it out. Not very intuitive to use and instructions (both included and on line) are only marginally helpful. Also videos on website aren't specific to the 65s, but are close with some key differences. Takes some trial and error, but very powerful tool. Still figuring some things out. Altimeter calibration seems to be needed every time batteries are changed and you need to know an elevation or a barometric pressure where you are to calibrate. Not always easy to do in field
I purchased this gps due to its wealth of features and rugged durability, Has maps, multi GNSS, and was offered at a price I could not refuse.
mostly used for hunting, hiking, and geocaching. works great.
I wanted a multi-band GPS that runs on AA batteries. Most of the newer GPS units come with integrated LION batteries. This unit allows for AA alkaline or NiMH. I purchased NiMH batteries and a charger to go with it. I like being able to have this option, as I use AA batteries to power other devices as well. AA batteries are also widely available if for some reason I don't have my NiMHs with me. I also really like the multi-band capabilities and the powerful antenna of this model. This unit picks up a signal right in the middle of my house. I also like the BaseCamp app which makes it easy to upload to all of my Garmin products. Lastly, the form factor really works for me. While the higher-end Garmin GPS in the hiking/handheld space come with more features and two-way communication (a feature not needed for me), they are larger units in the hand. I look forward to using this unit for years to come!
I bought this for hiking trails so the topo maps are good. Also wanted some lake maps for my fishing. Although lake vu on this device doesn't support all the lake vu features, it is good enough to get me where I want to go. Already had a striker (no map) but this combo does the job and I didn't have to buy a whole new system (echomap). So I'm happy.
I think this will be a very useful device once I learn to use it. I find the learning curve is very steep and long. I've downloaded and printed out the owner's manual and looked at some of the videos on the Garmin site and on Youtube. They all help, but I feel like I'm trying to drink from a fire hose.
Todo perfecto, excepto que hay mapas que no me reconoce y antes si me han funcionado en otros aparatos.
Not exactly sure why I tried the 65s again as my last one only lasted about a year before failing to turn on. I like what it is but such a short lifespan is disappointing
I've had this for a few months now. The GPS itself seems quite accurate and locks on to satellites quickly. That's about all the positive things I can say about it. The phone/PC environment to upload/download/sync is byzantine and horrific. The lack of any file mgmt capabilities on the GPS itself is inexcusable. I have a 20 year old Delorme Earthmate which could manage waypoints and tracks far better than this current unit. It takes a PC, a phone, and the GPS to manage waypoints and, even then, I cannot do what my old GPS could do. Very disappointed.
The screen is so small you can't tell where you are overall, and if you zoom out it looses all the detail so you can't tell what trail you are on. Obsolete, confusing, and Walmart expects me to drive twenty miles from my home just to return it, something they conveniently forgot to mention. I would never buy this GPS again, and would never order anything from Walmart again either.
