Garmin Oregon 650t 3-Inch Handheld GPS with 8MP Digital Camera (US Topographic Maps)
From the moment you cradle the 650t in your hand, you’re ready to enter into a bold new world of Garmin GPS mapping and positioning. With high-sensitivity GPS and GLONASS satellite tracking (more satellites mean faster fixes, even in challenging environments), preloaded TOPO U.S. 100K maps, worldwide basemap with shaded relief and a faster processor, you don’t just look at maps, you interact with them. Zoom in, pan out and rotate using multi-touch. The touchscreen even is compatible with many gloves. The reflective display technology boosts touchscreen brightness so much that maps and displays are as vivid in full bright sunlight as they are in shade. And, mark memories with an 8 megapixel autofocus camera with digital zoom and automatic flash/torch, plus customizable buttons for 1-touch image capture and waypoint marking.
Quality Photos
Now you don’t have to take an additional camera with you to take quality photos. Oregon 650t’s built in 8 megapixel autofocus digital camera takes photos worthy of sharing. And each photo is geotagged with the location of where it was taken, allowing you to navigate back to that exact spot in the future. Then share the photos from your Oregon 650t via USB with all your friends through Garmin Adventures, the online adventure sharing community. For more storage, insert a microSD™ card; you can even view pictures from other devices on microSD with Oregon’s picture viewer.
Double Your Power
Oregon 650t features our state-of-the-art dual battery system. You’ll have the option of using the internally rechargeable NiMH pack (included) or traditional AA batteries — NiMH pack charges when the device is connected to external power.
Touch and Go
Oregon 650t was purposely engineered for the outdoors. It features the most brilliant, sunlight readable touchscreen we’ve ever put on a Garmin handheld, strengthened for impact resistance but with multi-touch and dual orientation views that still accommodate gloved operation. Bumps, dust, dirt, humidity and water are no match for this mapping-oriented navigator.
Explore the Terrain
Oregon 650t comes with built-in U.S. topographic data for the entire U.S., including Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico, and a worldwide basemap with shaded relief — all the tools for serious climbing or hiking. Map detail includes national, state and local parks and forests, along with terrain contours, elevation information, trails, rivers, lakes and points of interest.
Get Your Bearings
Oregon 650t has a built-in 3-axis electronic compass with accelerometer tilt compensation, which shows where you’re heading even when you’re standing still, and not holding it level. Its barometric altimeter tracks changes in pressure to pinpoint your precise altitude, and you even can use it to plot barometric pressure over time, which can help you keep an eye on changing weather conditions. And with its high-sensitivity, WAAS- and GLONASS-enabled GPS receiver and HotFix® satellite prediction, Oregon 650t locates your position quickly and precisely and maintains its GPS location even in heavy cover and deep canyons.
Share Wirelessly
With Oregon 650t you can share your waypoints, tracks, routes and geocaches up to 50 times faster with other wireless compatible Garmin handheld devices. Plus, you can share large files too like photos, Garmin Adventures and Custom Maps. Just touch “send” to transfer your information.
Add Maps
Adding more maps to Oregon is easy. Load TOPO U.S. 24K maps and hit the trail; add Trailhead Series TOPO maps and explore famous treks like the Appalachian Trail and the Pacific Crest Trail; plug in BlueChart® g2 preloaded cards for a great day on the water; or load City Navigator® map data for turn-by-turn routing on roads. Add satellite images to your maps with BirdsEye Satellite Imagery (subscription required).
Load All the Geocaches
No more picking, choosing and planning, just download them all. The Oregon 650t can hold an unlimited number of geocaches. Not just one thousand, not just one million. Unlimited. Download every cache on OpenCaching.com. Load caches from GSAK. Or use your favorite program or website supporting GGZ files*. All your paperless geocaching features will be there for every cache. Read full descriptions, hints and logs. View cache photos. Filter caches by size, terrain, difficulty and type. Connect to chirp-enabled caches. Record your logs in the field. Do it all. The Oregon 650t has no limit.
Plan Your Next Trip
Take charge of your next adventure with BaseCamp™, software that lets you view and organize maps, waypoints, routes and tracks. This free trip-planning software even allows you to create Garmin Adventures that you can share with friends, family or fellow explorers. BaseCamp displays topographic map data in 2-D or 3-D on your computer screen, including contour lines and elevation profiles. It also can transfer an unlimited amount of satellite images to your device when paired with a BirdsEye Satellite Imagery subscription.

Dear Garmin — Read This Not without a few serious problems. But first, the good things: – Sunlight readable display is fabulous. I wish all laptops and nav screens in cars looked like this. Also, adjusting the backlight is super easy which you want to do regularly in actual field use. – User interface is mostly good and intuitive (* see below). Considering how many features are in the product, pretty good design. – Packaging is excellent. Unlike phones, this unit is actually rugged. Buttons are…
Almost perfect! Love, love, love this GPS! Very easy to use, lots of great options, easy to set up exactly as you need it, lightweight and handy to have! Battery life is a concern, though. I’m a wildlife biologist and use this GPS to mark animal locations. After half a day of use, the batteries often call it quits. I’d like to just be able to use the rechargeable pack, but it’s not possible to take a break midday to charge the unit. Instead, I need to be sure to have lots of extra batteries with me while in…
