I had an issue where I was lost for few hours in deep woods with no cell service last fall. Hypothermia would have definitely been an issue so I purchased this portable gps, I have used it locally and after the update I have found trails that I thought won’t be on here so it works better than expected. Also purchased a holder for backpack. Very light, uses 2 batteries so carrying a couple extra is no issue. I feel very comfortable using this gps in areas that get no cell service without being lost again. If you hike or are unfamiliar with an area I Highly recommend this or another similar item. It can definitely save your life!!

Excelente producto anteriormente en la oficina usaba estos gps, compacto y precisos al momento de realizar marcaciones o waypoints y trazado de mapas, super útiles para el trabajo de campo. 100 x 100 recomendable el producto así como el vendedor.

I’ve been an eTrex user for literally decades: I bought the original eTrex shortly after it was released in 2003, and an eTrex 20 (shown in orange in the photo) shortly after it was released in 2011. Without fail, they’ve been solid, reliable, and long-lasting units that have served me well after miles on the trail, off-road, and all over the world even in the harshest environments ranging from the peaks of the Swiss alps to the sandy deserts of Oman.
The eTrex 22x (blue in the photo) is no different. Almost literally, for better or worse.
The 22x is virtually identical to the 20 in all respects, except that it comes with some additional internal storage (which is irrelevant if one uses a microSD card) and the Garmin TopoActive maps. Other than those changes, it appears to be literally the same unit.
In most respects, that’s excellent: the eTrex 20 that I’m replacing (after the flexible rubber over the buttons finally wore out and rendered it not waterproof and unusable) has been an outstanding unit and it’s good to replace it with something similarly robust and easy to use. The user interfaces for both the 22x and 20 are simple, easy to understand, and easily operated with the side buttons and joystick. The receivers in both are sufficiently sensitive to work even with tree cover and in foul weather, and receives signals strongly even if the unit is sideways or upside-down. Both are IPX7 waterproof, have a rated battery life of 25 hours, have a 2.2″ color screen, weigh 5 oz (141.7 g), have the same mounting rail on the back, and are still made by Garmin in their factory in Taiwan (though the USB cable is made in Taiwan or China).
I particularly like that the 22x continues to use AA batteries rather than a non-replaceable rechargeable battery (often seen in other more modern receivers) since AA batteries are available virtually anywhere on earth. It’s ability to to set the battery type in the menu (alkaline, non-rechargeable lithium, or rechargeable NiMH) is very useful for ensuring the battery gauge is accurate.
While the 22x retains all the excellent features of the 20, many aspects of it show its age: it has the same L1-only GPS+GLONASS+WAAS/EGNOS receiver as the 20 (no L1/L2/L5 multiband receiver, nor any support for other constellations like Galileo or Beidou like other more modern Garmin receivers), the same screen, the same user interface, etc. The color screen is acceptably visible in bright light, but advancements in screen technology make newer, higher-contrast screens seen in other devices even better.
The 22x still uses a miniUSB port under the rubber flap on the back; while the port is robust and durable, having something more modern like USB-C would have been nice. Finding a miniUSB cable in shops is becoming more challenging these days, now that microUSB and (more recently) USB-C have superseded it.
Other than the microSD card and the USB port, it lacks any sort of external connectivity — it would be nice if it had Bluetooth or some other means of connecting to a smartphone or computer to receive software and map updates, update Geocaches, sync waypoints and tracks, etc. Having a built-in NiMH battery charger that could charge NiMH batteries when plugged into USB for power would be convenient and eliminate the need to carry a separate battery charger.
Don’t get me wrong: the eTrex 22x is a fantastic receiver and will give you many years of faithful service in even the harshest conditions, but even though it was released in 2019 it’s fundamentally the same as the eTrex 20 which came out in 2011, which in turn is very similar to the original eTrex from 2003. It’s robust, reliable, and durable, but it’s beginning to feel a bit dated compared to some of their more modern receivers and lacks some of the quality-of-life features that more modern receivers have.
If you don’t need or care for those modern bells and whistles, this is an outstanding receiver.

I own several GPS devices but this one is my favorite. This small GPS device does everything that I need it to do and it costs less than two hundred dollars(US). I can’t think of anything GPS related that I can’t do with my eTrex 22x. I enjoy planning out my hikes using Garmin Basecamp and uploading the waypoints and other data to my 22x. I developed the habit of tethering all of my devices when I was in the Army. I like that Garmin sells a custom tether for their devices. I keep several hundred feet of 550 cord on hand for tethering all of my devices to my gear. I never lose anything. I place the Garmin tether up high on the strap for my backpack so that I can hear the audible tones. This device will beep when you reach a turn so that you can know to look at the device. The Garmin tether keeps this device velcro’ed in place when you are not looking at it. Every time I hear it beep, I pull it off the velcro and look at it. I saw a couple reviews stating that they could not see the screen in the sunlight. I can only assume those people have not found the adjustment for the backlight. Hit the power button one time and it brings up the backlight adjustment. Turn that all the way up and you won’t have a problem seeing the display in the sunlight. Don’t worry, the battery life is still very good with the backlight turned up.

It’s a Garmin so good quality and customer service. You need to register the device on Garmin’s website and download their free map. To do this it requires you to buy a little SD card and put it in the device. It took close to four hours for the map to download, ugg! It is easy to use, the directions are clear. It has a little toggle stick to move through and select what you want it set to. If you are buying sight unseen, be prepared for how small the screen is, it is small. I have had it out in the wilderness, and it is a handy little gps.

Love garmin products, however this gadget is a total waste of money. Can’t read anything on it , detail is too small to be of any help and trail following abilities just dismal. Bought this 2 months ago to bring to Sedona, AZ., to aid in hiking trails unknown to me and wife. just as a saftey net so to speak. Found it totally useless for anything other than general directions. No trail differentions, no directions at fork just a tiny arrow showing a general direction. Wish I had used it earlier. Tried it locally in NH and thought the local trails werent well known enough, in the white mountains, but didn’t matter, just as useless in Sedona on all trails. Even bought the special software maps for southwest from Garmin for $99.00 made no difference. My advice is to not waste your money on this toy. Either buy a much larger one and try it out first to see the “detail” of the maps or use your cell phone. Hiking place in Sedona told us to use Trek something free on phone app and uses satellite GPS. We had it on our phone after dismal performance of the Garmin etrex 22 and it was great. Had everything the Garmin was supposed to, with much greater detail, and free. Can’t return because my 30 days are up but don’t waste your money on this . Such a dissapointment as I have used Garmin products for over 12 years……but this thing is useless..

This is the first GPS I have baught since my old Garmin 12 I baught back when I was a little kid (like 8) and I love it. I love the colour screen and the maps are so cool. You need to buy a SD card for it but once you do you can update the software with Garmin and you get a map upgrade and the free prelodded maps are so detailed and accurete. They have my church, my old hghschool, my old university, my work, everything. I really recomend buying this GPS, I use it mostly for fun like geocaching and camping or just playing around when I go on walks with my mum.

good for what needs done in the wilderness. you don’t need all the extras like the other modules. US this in conjunction with compass to save battery life.
