Glad to hear this. I’ve had the same experience with the 600 and have been considering upgrading to the 700i just for the screen size improvement. Thank you.

I agree Raymond. I loved the 600. Recently upgraded to the 700i and wrote about it here https://packandtrail.com/blog/garmin-montana-700i-gps-review/ . I love the big screen for a multipurpose GPS and inReach.

And in those 6yrs there wasn’t an alternative unit I would have taken if you gave me it free. I kept an EtrexH as a back up in case it went pear shaped which it never did.
The screen and interface are excellent. Yes it’s not HD or super HD but it is Excellent. I’ve now purchased the Garmin Montana 700 series and keeping the 600 series as well just in case. Some people think the 700 series is too large but I think size does matter when it comes to the screen and just how much you can see. It’s second to none. And with the Accessories available you can use it as a car sat Nav. Bike sat nav. Or hand held GPS. They were both expensive but well worth the money.
