  1. A lot depends on your budget. I use a Garmin Oregon 450, acquired a few months ago. I like it a lot. It is very Geocaching-friendly, after the learning curve up from my 8 year old Magellan 300.

     

    One thing to do will be to purchase the Groundspeak Premium Membership, $30/year, and worth every penny for the pocket queries of caches easily added to your GPSr.

     

    Some factors to consider on your purchase:

    Touchscreen vs. Button/Joystick user input

    Camera added to unit

    Screen size and resolution

     

    There is a whole section of the forum related to GPS, and that part has a 'GPS Garage Sale' section as well.

  2. I am currently using my Samsung Galaxy S4 smart phone for geocaching. I only get 1 gigabyte a month on my phone and just trying to search for a geocache uses that up in 1 hour of searching. Plus, it is very slow and lately has been very inaccurate in finding caches. I'm looking at a Garmin GPS/map 62s and have read pros and cons on this device. I want something dependable and user friendly, what should I get?
