Garmin GPSMAP 76Cx

A handheld GPS device that offers good value.

USB connectivity, microSD card slot, colour display

Poorly detailed base map

The GPSMAP 76Cx remedies the flaws of the GPSMAP 76, adding USB connectivity and a microSD card slot.

76CSx

Far superior to the 76cs that I lost. Better in heavy and dense brush and faster on tracking. Picks up far more sats also!!! Will do for the type of hunting we do for many years to come. Price was excellent and so was the delivery !!!

Excellant product

My fellow fisherman....You're going to love this one. Don't buy anything else in a handheld. Buy this one and you'll be happy for quite sometime.

Beautiful screen. Sizing, colors, and resolution are great. Somewhat slow aquiring sattelites during power-up but, once it's done it has no problems tracking even in the worst conditions. Menus are easily accessable by pageing. Software installs...

Pricing on this instrument is falling. Buy it now if you want, or wait a few months. You wont be sorry.

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Absolutely thrilled with this product!!!

Buy a 2GB microSD card and the maps software with it. Then you can just load all the maps to the card and be done with it.

Very simple/intuitive to use. Portability is awesome. I have mounts in my truck and on my ATV and motorcycle. Easy to navigate to destination. There is really just too much to write about it. One thing I really like is the find feature. When I...

NONE!

great round-a-bout gps

Overall i am extremely satisfied with it. A garmin fan for now on!

great product! I geocache some and needed an upgrade being that my last gps was a garmin 3 (1997).. This one connects fast, stays connected. works indoors and in the car. The best thing i like is that it has routing for driving!. I have a Garmin...

i wish it could charge my NiMH when its plugin in via 5v USB. seems to think i move some when im standing still. (randomly, and it probably depends on my signal strength)

GPSMAP 76CSx

Seems to do a good job. I'm curious what the best GPS device out there realy is. I had read lots of great reviews. It's my first GPS but I don't understand why it has to be the size of a generation one cell phone and have the interface of an old...

It works well and geocaching with it is very fun. It also seems to be fairly rugged.

It seems like this product simply never got on the technology autobahn. Why must it be so big and clunky and have such an ugly interface? I paid how much for this?
