Garmin's top-of-the-range model £399.99
Garmin's top-of-the-range models boast a 30 per cent bigger screen and five clearly labelled buttons, making basic processes much quicker to complete. The big fourway curser button in the centre of the case, together with a dedicated 'Enter' button, is much easier to use compared with the fiveway click stick on the eTrex range. Although the case is larger and the unit a little heavier than other models, it is worth considering, especially if you don't have great eyesight.
