What's Hot

International base map, long battery life, USB connection

What's Not

Expensive, black-and-white display, slow signal acquisition

The Final Word

Although the GPSmap 60 is functional on at least a basic level, it has a black-and-white display and a relatively high price point. With no expandable memory, slow acquisition times and a confusing control scheme, there’s no reason not to spend a little more and buy the Colorado 300.
