Powerful Unit
on October 11, 2025
Posted by: Love the new H1iPlus
I bought this unit 3 or weeks ago and have used it 2-3 times a week for hiking. it has been extremely accurate with location. it has a lot of really nice features. the apps are working great I use the outdoor Maps Plus subscription with it and the layers are super helpful for topography. Battery life is awesome. I would highly recommend this unit for a compact package with the inreach technology as a real plus.

Lots of bugs very frustrating

Several bugs. When adjusting certain widgets, the unit resets. Adjusting the home pages has bugs too where sometimes the changes don’t stick. Updated the firmware a week ago and lots of my home pages defaulted to the original settings when pinning and unpinning.

ornery

As with my Garmin Tread, the software is wonky. It does not recognize the SD card after going through different cards and formatting. I even bought an MS computer to see if the installed card was there, it is not. I ended up installing maps to the base ram. I was getting error messages on in correct satellite files which I fixed by doing a hard reset. The device locks in satellites very quickly and the Inreach function is great, better than my Montana 750i.

General improvement over the Garmin Montana 750i
on December 2, 2025
Posted by: TomF
I bought this as an upgrade over the 750i. I love the addition of voice messages and the ability to send pictures. I generally love the upgrade as it does have more features compared to the 750i but is missing some obvious additions. These include street navigation. It is compatible but not included. (it is included with the Montana. I navigate to places with no cell service so it makes sense to use one GPS for this. I upgraded but this should be included. The other feature is related. Bluetooth compatibility for car audio for voice directions during street navigation. The screen brightness is noticeably darker than the 750i but not unusable. I get these things affect battery performance but, they should still be user selectable.
