I’m very pleased with the quality and function of this GPS. I purchased the Garden TOPO 2009 NE US Map microsSD card so I’d get as close as the USGS topo map as possible, and it seems fine. My only slight problem was figuring out how to use Base Camp which I downloaded to work with tracks on my computer.

The software is a little tricky to use. You have to use Base Camp. But I was able to plan hikes, import them into Base Camp from All Trails (gpx format), and then use the 65s to route us to and from our destination accurately. Great Unit. The best part is that it has removable batteries. So take extra. The battery life is great on this as well.

If you don’t care about a large screen and navigation, this is the GPSr for you. Perfect for scientific fieldwork and exploration, which is why I got it. My previous GPSr’s were a GPSMap76, which burnt up in a housefire, and then an eTrex as a very cheap replacement. This is far, far superior to either. Regular accuracy is <2m, and incredibly, it came with a detailed road map of Jamaica, where I live and use it - even includes the most obscure, unnamed, minor roads and lanes. All the controls are with buttons, which makes it much easier to use in the bush than a touch-screen (you can do it with one hand). You can, of course, add your own custom maps (a tip on that - don't use the Google Earth method, just open the kml in a text editor and do the georeferencing manually). I'm very pleased with it.

i HAVE A GPSMAP 64SX, AND THE 65S IS HANDS DOWN FASTER, AND MORE ACCURATE! LATEST 3.7 SOFTWARE SOLVES SOME OF THE ISSUES, NO CUSTOM MAP ISSUES HERE. I AM ALWAYS 1.8 METER ACCURACY (6 FOOT) VS 9-15 FEET ON THE 64SX.

The 65s is one of Garmin’s finest GPSr’s. The accuracy is immediate and spot on. This unit accesses 5 of the 6 world GNSS systems. It has the traditional Garmin rugged, waterproof build. The GPS in a phone is at best a compromise. This is a purpose-built device that won’t die if it gets wet or dropped. It accepts almost unlimited geocaches using .ggz files. My grandson’s drone was lost due to hitting a tree and was a couple miles away in a ravine in the woods. I plugged in the coords and this GPS took us to within 6ft of the drone. If you have used a GPS before then you are ready to go. If you are new there is a short learning curve. Plenty of resources from other users, groups, and support. I am very pleased with this GPSr.
