Worse maps
on November 21, 2025
Posted by: Jake Haker
This is my 3rd Garmin handheld GPS I have GPSmap60Cx and GPSMAPS64st.The map on the GPS 60 the where add to the chip and 64 came with the unit. The 65's map are the worst they lack detail streams are missing even named ones. This not good for search and rescue work. There are maps to South and central America a place I will never go. There some much add that when a tried to do an update I was told there was no room. That I would need to add a memory card. This is the first time the i am not happy with a Garmin Product.

Great Accuracy!

The Garmin 65s GPS receiver is compact and fits comfortably in men’s standard front pockets. However, it consumes alkaline batteries rapidly while navigating. It supports expandable memory through a microSD card slot, allowing for up to 32GB of additional maps and data. The receiver is multi-band capable and can receive most international satellite transmissions, making it useful in densely forested areas and canyons worldwide. Accuracy varies between 2.0 and 10 meters, depending on the terrain and satellite reception.
