I’ve had the 601 for years. It’s been great. It’s pretty scratched up, so I’ll need one of these

[@sportsandgadgets776]

Absolutely! In the video, we highlighted how impressive the Foretrex 601 performed even in extreme conditions. Thank you for sharing your experience! Well, if you're considering an upgrade and don't need the ballistic feature, the new Garmin Foretrex 801 featured in the video would be a perfect choice, especially for its price. It builds upon the reliability and functionality of the 601 while offering some really exciting enhancements, every remarkable feature became even more impressive!

Your video showed me everything I was looking to learn about this 801. Had the 401 but a battery burst, this looks like it’s the next go to

Hi David, thank you so much for your feedback!

[@billywild3394]

can you please share how long the device lasts on a full charge in real life? informative review, thank you!

[@sportsandgadgets776]

Hi! The navigator is powered by two AAA batteries, so in terms of battery life, it can vary depending on usage and settings. However, with fresh batteries, you can typically expect the device to last for several days of continuous use before needing to replace the batteries.

Can I input grid coordinates of my locations?

Great review, thank you! So the only difference between the 801 and 901 is just the ballistic feature? The variation in price seems quite significant

[@sportsandgadgets776]

You're welcome! Indeed, the primary difference between the Garmin Foretrex 801 and 901 models is the inclusion of the ballistic feature in the Foretrex 901. The Foretrex 901 is specifically designed to cater to military and law enforcement needs, offering advanced ballistic calculations and data.

Gracias por el video. Tengo el 601 impecable, pero el poder mandar track y waipoin directamente con el telefono mobil con la apk explorer, es la gran mejora junto a la mejora de satelites, fluidez de respuesta en botones y duracion de pilas.

[@sportsandgadgets776]

¡Hola! ¡Gracias por tus comentarios! Sí, la capacidad de enviar la ruta y puntos de interés directamente desde el teléfono y la mejora en los satélites son definitivamente mejoras geniales.

I'd love to see a version of this with Solar cells as featured on Etrex and Instinct 2x. I also appreciate B&W LCD for great contrast and neat presentation.

At the 1 minute mark you mention detailed MAPS You do realize the foretrex line does NOT have maps on board, only your tracks and waypoints No maps showing terrain or and physical landnav features

[@noexcuses6727]

Agree as I am unable to figure out how to upload maps as stated by Garmin
