Poor Interface

This would be a fine unit if you were only using it minor recreation. The color maps and visable tracks make seeing where you've been easy. However, I use this unit for work where I'm out in the woods all day.

Excellent features

Good value for money, I am enjoying using this instrument for my research purpose. Excellent features in terms of altimeter and barometric pressure is an added advantage.

Over priced GPS

I'm a first time GPS user. I found this unit to either be too difficult to figure out or unable to do some fundimental things. Was tring to set the units to yards and measure a few golf drives but could not make it do whay I wanted. Screen is too small as well.
Pros:
  • Seems to be a high quality unit with some advanced functionality
Cons:
  • Short battery life
  • small screen
  • difficult to operate

Garmin GPSMAP 78

The Garmin GPSMAP 78 brought a major update to the GPSMAP 76 handheld line. Garmin had a huge hit with the 60/76 series, and instead of messing with a winner, they turned their attention to new interfaces, which were introduced on the Colorado series, followed by the touch screen Oregon line.

Great unit!

This product is a great new one from Garmin because it floats and does not cost an arm and leg. If you want a basic unit without altimeter and compass, this is a good choice (I didn't need compass, but did need floatability and water proof).
Pros:
  • Rugged
  • Good Value
  • Reliable
Cons:
  • large size

Bracket

Dose what it says on the box, good clip easy to use with gloves on. Would be better if it had a suction base.
