  • Garmin knocks it out of the park
Color: Black Style: Garmin inReach Mini 2 Pattern: Communicator
I took this little device on a canyon hiking trip in Utah to really put it to the test. Even with canyon walls towering over 100 feet, I was still able to get a solid connection. The speed varied depending on how deep I was, but it never failed to send a message. The screen is small but manageable—though if you have poor eyesight, it might be a bit challenging. It tracked me for the entire two-day trip, providing an excellent trip overview and, more importantly, peace of mind for my family back home. The build quality is impressive too—it handled scrapes and drops with no issues (including a few unintentional encounters with rocks while climbing). Subscription Note: Just be aware that some features require an active subscription. It’s not a deal-breaker since the core functions work well, but it is something to consider when factoring in the total cost. ... show more

  • Great product for being outdoors
Color: Orange Style: Garmin inReach Mini 2 Pattern: Communicator
Purchased a preowned model and it came in great condition. It functions as it should and is great for hiking when there is no service.

  • Travel safely in “no cell service” areas
Color: Orange Style: Garmin inReach Mini 2 Pattern: Communicator
Works really well. Just be patient: you may need to wait up to 10 minutes for the satellite to get aligned with it.

  • Didn't know I needed one
Color: Black Style: Garmin inReach Mini 2 Pattern: Communicator
I love camping. I wish I could have done more of it in the past, but trying to get friends or family together for one is a P.I.A. I never solo camped because the places I like are National Forests that will normally have no cell reception so being alone and running into an emergency isn't a great incentive to be adventurous. Pros: The unit is easy to set up. Fairly easy top register and get an account. The subscription can be suspended at any time without penalty and reinstated when needed. Great for us fair season campers that will have these tucked away in our camping bins for the winter. Insurance is affordable. BUY THE RESCUE INSURANCE IN CASE YOU EVER NEED TO BE RESCUED. Battery lasts the entire weekend for me. I can send receive messages and leave breadcrumbs for my family to track. The list goes on and on, but most of all, I have peace of mind to get out on adventures by myself and get to camp more. Cons: Monthly subscription can be a little pricy if you want to be able to send more messages and send location data of your trip in real-time. You will need separate usage plan and rescue insurance. You can forgo the insurance but I don't recommend it. All it takes is one incident and you'll wish you bought at least the basic insurance. You can't switch between cellular data and satellite in the app. It'll always use satellite even if you have cellular coverage. I highly recommend this IF you love exploring areas outside of cellular service areas. It's a great tool to let your family know you're safe and peace of mind if something catastrophic happens. I hope I never need the SOS function but I can feel better when I venture out solo. ... show more

  • Overpriced, slow
Color: Black Style: Garmin inReach Mini 2 Pattern: Communicator
This is old-school performance on high-tech equipment. I bought this for outdoor adventures in areas that have no cell coverage. It is functional, but you have to imagine that you are living in the 20th century to meet performance expectiations. First, the setup and activation took nearly 2 days. Yes, 2 days. I set up my account, put the InReach outdoors with full view of the sky, and then waited... and waited... finally after numerous power cycles, and more waiting, it activated. The instructions said that the long activation time is not an indication of normal performance. Yeah, right. Then I went camping in a remote area for a week. I sent a preset message, had InReach in full view of the sky, sitting on a small table. I waited... finally the message showed as Sent after 20 minutes. Not impressed. Other messages took anywhere from 5 to 20 minutes to send; judging the replies was more difficult, but the quickest reply from a friend was about 30 minutes (this could have been due to the friend taking time to respond). Despite the slow performance, it never failed to send or receive a message. The subscription plans have Gotchas that are not advertised. The Freedom plan, aka "pay as you go" does not offer much Freedom. First, you have to pay $35 for each year you use the plan; so if you only use it one month every year, then it isn't $15, it's $50. And, contrary to what's advertised on the Garmin site, you DO get charged for the months that you do NOT use it (as of June 2022), I believe $5/mo. For those reasons, I just did the Annual plan. The short of it: For ONE month, you pay $105 over the course of a year - that's $105 for ONE MONTH of usage. For the Annual plan, you pay $178 over the year, which is $14.86 per month. For the type and amount of service you get, InReach can seem like a total rip-off. You need to decide for yourself if having 'service anywhere' justifies the cost. For me, it is, and it fits my budget. There are a few strong points of the Garmin InReach2 over other platforms. First, it is small. I mean tiny. It's easy to pack and carry, and you do not need anything else - no phone pairing required. Battery life is good, and it uses a built-in rechargeble battery. The phone app is decent, and you don't need service / internet to use it or pair it. Of course you need to have already downloaded the app, but that's obvious. The screen is small but easy to read, unless you have poor eye sight. Still, let's say you are older or farsighted and lose your reading glasses, the SOS button can be found and operated by feel, so there's always that. Some downsides: Preset messages require setup on a computer via the InReach portal. The rechargeable battery means that you can't use common batteries in a pinch, like AAAs or similar; and you need to have access to a USB-C charger. Complaints aside, if I knew all this before I bought it, I probably would have still bought it, mostly because I'm an electronics nerd. ... show more

  • You never need this.... until you do
Color: Orange Style: Garmin inReach Mini 2 Pattern: Communicator
I like to go out for hours on end into the mountains without cell phone service to play with rattle snakes. For some reason my wife likes having me around and wants me to live to an elderly age so we can sit on rocking chairs on our front porch screaming at kids to get off of our lawn. This helps the chances of her dreams to come true should I end up needing assistance when out of cell phone coverage (biking, hiking, camping, playing with snakes etc) and require assistance (emergency or non emergency) I am able to get it. I like the idea of being able to send a text message to my wife "Honey, I ran over a snake, it got angry, bit one of my bike tires, can you please come get me" or being able to press the SOS button for our true heroes that rescue morons like me who might fall off of a cliff after being bitten by a den of rattle snakes. I know iPhones are able to send text messages over satellite but I still like having a tool that is built for the job. I hope to never use this and waste $7 a month for the basic plan, but if I ever do find myself in trouble, I know this will be worth every penny! ... show more

  • MUST HAVE safety item with “ adventure” motorcycling
Color: Orange Style: Garmin inReach Mini 2 Pattern: Communicator
UPDATE: just returned from a RawHyde off-road motorcycle training, course where Instructors repeatedly emphasize the need to wear This on your body as you ride. (and to never ride alone) All people in the course fell at least once in the very challenging training exercises. with one fall, My foot was pinned below my bike, but luckily not injured due to my good boot. If I were out alone, I don’t know what I would’ve done as I needed others to shift the bike weight to get my foot out From under the motorcycle Prior review : As a 70 year-old going on hikes in the local mountains with friends and adventure motorcycle rides. I am at risk for injury far from assistance. This is an essential item as my cell phone service is often spotty to absent. Hope I never need to use it, but I have tried all it features But the SOS good for letting others know where you are and texting from remote locations. Not as easy to use as cell phone texting but functional. As the screen is tiny, I don’t think it would work well as a GPS mapping device, but it does display your location and coordinates. ... show more
