Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Garmin eTrex Carrying Case
Customer Review: A great cover
Summary: 4 Stars
I was a little skeptical of using this cover at first but since it came as part of the package deal I thought I would try it. Now I feel it is well worth it. What it gives you is protection from screen scratches and a belt clip for holding the gpsr hands free. In addition the padding gives you a better grip on the unit. You don't have to remove it to use the cable for downloads and all the buttons are uncovered. (You do have to remove it to install fresh batteries.)Customer Review: good covergae, screen cover has too much glare
Summary: 4 Stars
this is a perfectly designed case for the etrex legend. Joystick is easily accessible, it fits snug, and the belt clip is nice and secure. My only complaint is the plastic window to protect the LCD. It's pretty thick and seems like it scratches pretty easily and makes the LCD more difficult to read with the heavy glare. Otherwise, it's a good thing to have to protect your GPS from invetible drops and abrasion.Customer Review: Very handy!
Summary: 4 Stars
Besides being useful for protection, I found another use for the velcro on the case. I stuck a piece of velcro to my car's dashboard and opened up the flap on the case and stuck it there. Voila! My Garmin now stays put while driving.My only complaint is that sometimes it's difficult to read the screen through the plastic, but I guess that's the price you must pay for having something covering the screen.
Customer Review: Regardless of other reviews, this is a winner
Summary: 5 Stars
I received the case yesterday and took it on a hike in pretty heavy woods today. I got fine reception. And you can manipulate the controls OK. Screen covered by plastic to protect but that was not a problem.
FYI- I ordered from Amazon and used their free shipping option. They bluffed and said 7 to 9 days. I said OK. I actually recieved the order by UPS in 23, yes 23 hours, after placing order!
Customer Review: Clear vinyl lens is easily scratched
Summary: 4 Stars
The case fits my GPS perfectly and is very comfortable to carry on. The clip is strong and so far there is no sign of failure. The only disappointment is that the clear vinyl lens is easily scratched and looses its transparency - so bad that you have to take out the GPS to read comfortably - which is a drawback when you're driving. Besides this, the rest is top quality and would buy another one.
