Let’s look at the Garmin Explorer Plus vs Garmin GPSMAP 67i and see what the differences are.
What Do They Have in Common?
- SOS Emergency Services
- Two-way Messaging
- inReach Technology
- Navigation
- Topo Maps & Aerial Maps
- Weather Forecasts
- Tracking
- MapShare
- TracBack
How Are They Different?
These both are Garmin inReach devices, and the GPSMAP 67i has a larger screen, faster processor, plus has additional menu items that can be re-arranged, added or removed.
Final Thoughts
The GPSMAP 67i seems to have replaced the Explorer+ and is much more powerful. Garmin will eventually stop supporting the Explorer+, and even now, Garmin does not sell it on their website. You can only get the Garmin Explorer+ on retail sites that still have stock available.
I recommend saving your money up to buy the more expensive 67i as it is a better device, plus the Explorer+ is being phased out.
