This is a basic GPS guide, or measurer. I wanted it for a specific purpose, but it has the capability of measuring far beyond what I wanted it for. Now, I have no complaints about that whatsoever. The only thing for me is that it’s a steeper learning curve. The instrument isn’t fully intuitive, nor did it come fully charged. I let plugged it in and let it charge while doing other tasks. There is a non-proprietary USB cord and a wall charger included.What I personally wanted it for was in the event I go hiking in an unfamiliar area. I don’t have a Garmin watch and seldom utilize a cell phone. I do know that this device will work for me via satellite coordinates. I’m not into bushcraft, but I’ve seen videos on how to navigate my way out of the woods. No thank you. It’s good to know information, but I doubt I’ll leave home without some electronic assistance.I can track my own movements in real time and see where I’ve been and where I want to go. This is a by land or by sea sort of a device. Yes, it’s a bit pricey, but for me it’s worth the added expense. I do hope to use it by next summer. It will take me a bit of time to learn the capabilities of this device, but there’s plenty of time.

This GPS handheld unit uses the GLONASS GPS satellite system. It comes with the unit itself, a charging cable, a power brick, a lanyard, and user instructions. The unit provides various different options such as tracking and route tracing, among others. You can see your Longitude and Latitude on the device. It works as advertised. The menu system is a little clumsy and limited. One very odd thing is that you cannot silence or lower the volume of the device so for every single push of a button it makes a very loud beep. There are no settings in the menu for this nor any physical button combination and no mention of being able to do this in the instructions. It is very quickly - super annoying. A strategically-placed piece of electrical tape placed over the speaker on the back solves this issue - mostly. The device works but is annoying without this modification.Overall I believe it is of OK value for the cost. As always I will evaluate long term and update with any new information
