Review: Garmin Colorado 400t

 

The name “Garmin” is synonymous with “GPS,” the way “Q-Tip” is synonymous with “auditory hygiene.” And the Colorado 400t doesn't let us down: Its light,...

Unbeatable form factor. Click-wheel makes navigation more than effortless. Included carabineer means accidental drops are a rare occurrence. Preloaded topo maps preprogrammed with local haunts we’re predisposed to frequenting. For free. Preposterous

Use that ‘biner — a drop of about 2 feet killed the power. Dig out your spare PC, as Mac software is lacking. Despite that road-lock feature, an average of 18-20 foot accuracy makes it disorienting and dangerous to use while driving

Expert Review

 

Overall I think the Garmin Colorado 400t is a big jump in quality of experience over the eTrex C series and even the GPSMap 60CSx units. I say that for numerous reasons, and acknowledging that the Colorado series costs a lot more, I still think it's a...

Garmin Colorado 400t review

 

The Garmin Colorado 400t is one of the first in a new line of handheld GPS receivers from Garmin. With an entirely new interface, it is very different from the eTrex and 60/76 series units.

WOW!

 

Pricey, but well worth the money. Even tells you best times of day to fish. Supports Geocaching natively and the new WhereIgo GPS adventure system. (Fun!) It is ruggedized and water-proof in normal situations. Garmin's website is phenomenal and updated...

This unit is amazing! It's light, comfortable, and well designed. Menus and navigation system are incredibly easy to use with a VERY intuitive interface. The cursor control (Rock n Roller) is a pleasure to use. Within minutes of getting this I had...

No built in rechargeable batteries, though that might not be a con considering you can get AA batteries anywhere ; Comes with U.S. topo maps, but you have to pay extra for the City Navigator maps if you plan to use it in a car ; Backlight on screen...
