And that’s why I think you should always carry replacement batteries with you. This is especially important for longer hikes yes it has a decent battery life, but when hits that 50% the battery starts to drain faster, as the devices have some really powerful features. And I would advise you to carry a pair of AA batteries, just in case, the GPS runs out of juice. If you decide to get the battery pack, I recommend that you always fully charge it before hitting the trails. The good news is that it’s not too expensive, and it could save you some money in the long run. The NiMH battery pack can be recharged while it’s inside the device, but it’s an accessory you would have to buy separately. Battery life is estimated at about 16 hours, which is usually enough to get you through a day of hiking. They use either two AA batteries or the optional NiMH battery pack. Battery Lifeīattery life is another area where these two Garmin GPS devices perform exactly the same.
And that’s not going to impact the performance of the device in any way, so let’s move on to some of the more important features. The only obvious difference between the two is color the 64s features orange accents, while the 64st features grey accents. Both devices also feature a 2.6” color display, with a resolution of 160 x 240 pixels.
They are almost exactly the same they hav e the exact same dimensions, they weigh the same and all of the buttons are exactly the same. Let’s talk about the things we all notice first – the design of these devices. If you’re more interested in the differences, feel free to skip to the bottom part of this review.
