Garmin GPSMAP H1 Review - Hands-On Test of Garmin’s New Hybrid GPS
We’ve spent the past few days testing the brand-new Garmin GPSMAP H1, Garmin’s first hybrid handheld GPS with both touchscreen and buttons.
In this hands-on review, we share our real-world experience of its design, usability, mapping options, battery life and new features such as the flashlight, siren and Quick Action button. If you’re considering a new GPS unit, this is one of the most intuitive and capable devices Garmin has ever released.
Garmin GPSMAP H1/ H1 Plus vs GPSMAP 67/ 67i – should you upgrade?
Garmin’s GPSMAP 67 and 67i have been our go‑to handhelds over the past couple of years. They’re rugged, reliable and offer long battery life with global multi‑GNSS support. With the launch of the GPSMAP H1 and Garmin H1i Plus in September 2025, some customers are wondering whether it’s time to trade in their trusty 67 series.
