Be perfectly equipped for outdoor navigation with devices from Garmin

Find the right Garmin device for every situation in life. The world-renowned manufacturer of navigation devices also offers accessories for its devices in addition to GPS trackers.

What devices and accessories are available?

Most people are likely to know the company Garmin (actually "Garmin Ltd.") from its satnavs for cars. However, in addition to these, the manufacturer also offers numerous devices for outdoor enthusiasts. From small and lightweight GPS sports watches to dedicated GPS trackers, there are many different device categories and equipment variants. A popular model is the Garmin 62s, which ASMC offers.

The American company was founded in 1989 and is headquartered in Schaffhausen, Switzerland. Production, however, takes place in Kansas and Taiwan. Incidentally, the name is made up of the initials of the two founders, Gary Burrell and Min Kao.

Questions and answers about Garmin

How do the device classes differ?
Garmin offers devices in various classes:
- Mobile phone and vehicle/pedestrian/aviation navigation
- Road
- Outdoor navigation
- Nautical devices, marine navigation
- Cycling computers

What are the biggest detailed differences?
Some devices have a color display, while others are designed purely for map display using a simple grayscale LCD. Both variants naturally have advantages and disadvantages, because a (high-resolution) color display unfortunately also requires more power. In contrast, the energy-saving black-and-white displays cannot provide such a fine image, but they run longer on a single battery charge.

What about the map material of the devices?
Many handheld devices, regardless of manufacturer, are supplied with a basic set of map material. This includes many main roads for the most important/largest cities, so you can usually get started right away. If you need a higher resolution of an area, e.g. on vacation, you usually have to purchase an additional map package from the manufacturer. The areas are usually divided by continent.
