Garmin 60 Cx
What is the difference between the Garmin Etrex vista cx and GPSMap 60 CSX?
Does anyone know the difference performance-wise between these 2 models? I have seen a comparison chart but I couldn’t find anything that would explain the price difference…
I am looking for a handheld GPS unit that would load topographical maps on it (for hiking).
Any recommendation would be much appreciated!
Thanks a lot!
I have a Vista HCx and really like the improved sensitivity of the receiver (the H in the name). The Vistas are smaller for carrying.
The Cx is not as sensitive of a receiver but the batteries last longer. More sensitivity can be important if you are under heavy tree cover.
With the X models, you can pack a lot of maps onto a micro SD card. A 2 gig card only costs about $30.
I would recommend going to Garmin’s web page and sending their support group the question. They know some of the details that are not obvious in the specs.
You can also download the manuals from the site and get an idea of other differences in the screens.
