Garmin eTrex H 2.25

Explain star rating

RRP

$257.00

Review Date

Thursday, 21st of August, 2008

What's Hot

Simple to use, IPX-7 casing, configurable routes and waypoints

What's Not

No base map or detailed maps, monochrome LCD, serial PC connection, inadequate control of navigation

The Final Word

Although the eTrex H might suit those hikers who want nothing except the bare minimum, most will find it largely unusable. Inadequate functionality and no base map makes the unit extremely hard to use for anyone except the most experienced hikers, and the slightly more expensive Magellan Triton 200 is probably a better option.
