Great peace of mind.

Got this at beginning of April and took it on a trip to Death Valley which was mostly without cell service. Was great to be able to communicate with family and update our status. Also good to know they could reach me if needed.

USB C Finally

Great little satellite communicator. Long battery life. Connects with several other Garmin products like the Fenix watch. Works great with an iPhone. Mapping apps are pretty dated as for planning routes but there's some good third-party options.

Great piece of equipment
on May 3, 2022

I've long adventured off grid without any back up. I just took it for granted that everything would work out. But I've gotten a few more gray hairs, and with them some more wisdom. I think we owe it to our families and friends to take responsibility for our adventures. Along with basic self-rescue and first aid skills and equipment, I think this is an essential piece of equipment that everyone should carry. Easy interface via Garmin Explore app, long battery life, lightweight and small size - there is always a reason and plenty room for this in your pack. Get one now, and don't forget to practice with it ahead of time before you go.

So many sub-menus!
on May 4, 2022
Posted by: Hikeamundo
Only five hikes with this inReach so far, and overall I like it. Compared to my previous model it is super lightweight and easy to access from a pack strap, but there are some concerns. It takes longer to send messages, even after one was just sent, and with clear skies and few trees. Finding screens is so slow because there are just so many sub-menus to recall that I forget where they are! And reading the downloaded user's guide is awkward in the field. However, the Mini2 does work well with the mapping program, my spouse does not have to worry about where I am , and our text messages make it through every time. As I learn the features better I am sure I will grow to really appreciate this new tool.

Awesome Nav Aid
on May 5, 2022
Posted by: Videopitt
I purchased this so that friends and family could keep track of our progress across the Mojave and for our navigation assist to keep us on the proper trail It worked flawlessly alongside the app on my smart phone. Battery life was impressive, too.
