It doesn't fit in most pockets, but has a carabineer clip. You can assign a user key to lock the screen: https://www.gpscity.com/questions?qid=48589 Quote Link to comment
+Atlas Cached Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 Set the power button or user button to turn the screen on/off, or employ the lock screen function from the Status Page. I personally set my 650t to turn the screen on/off when double pressing the user button. Quote Link to comment

Turn on battery save mode which will automatically turn the screen off after a determined amount of time (I find 30 seconds to be ideal) and set one of the user button functions to turn the screen on/off.
