Review on Garmin Rino 700: Rugged 2-Way Radio and Handheld GPS Navigator, GPS/GLONASS Enabled by Carrie Morris

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Unreliable obsolete junk

Just bought 4 of these to enable our group to communicate in the remote wilderness. The map is inaccurate and useless (no topo), if you use the hills the talkback can reach 0.5 miles if you are in the bush. The compass is terrible. They only report the location via a two-way signal. GPS does not exchange data between radios. It's like going back 10 years in technology. Also, I've already passed my return date, so we're staying with you for now. Don't waste your money.

Pros
  • GPS for sports and portable devices
Cons
  • Requires socket
