Compared to my old Garmin GPS 12 XL, it took 15 years, and there is no comparison. Acquiring satellite is remarkably fast, and sensitivity was significantly improved, so that I correctly acquired satellite in undergrowth. The screen is easily readable, remarkable ease of use; map and compass in the bag (in case) it is my faithful companion of mountain walks. Very satisfied with the product very well packed, ordered and received on February 1st February 3; Congratulations to Amazon.com!
