Key Features in Detail

Hybrid Touchscreen & Button Controls

The 3.5″ sunlight-readable colour touchscreen makes it easy to see your route in bright conditions. The chemically strengthened glass resists scratches, while glove-friendly operation ensures usability in cold or wet weather. Combined with rugged push buttons and a customisable quick-action button, you’ll have total control in any situation.

inReach Satellite Messaging & SOS Alerts

Stay connected beyond mobile reception with inReach Plus technology. With an active subscription, you can:

• Send and receive group text messages up to 1,600 characters.

• Exchange voice messages and photos with family, friends, or colleagues.

• Trigger an interactive SOS alert to the 24/7 Garmin Response℠ centre for emergency help anywhere in the world.

• Allow others to track your journey with LiveTrack satellite sharing — perfect for peace of mind when venturing into remote bushland.

This makes the H1i Plus not just a navigation device, but a lifeline in emergencies.

Built-In Cameras & Voice Control

Capture memories and document your journey with the integrated front and rear cameras. Photos can be shared in real time (with an inReach subscription) even when far from mobile networks. For hands-free convenience, the voice control function allows you to take photos, check in, start tracking, and more — available in multiple languages including English, German, French, Spanish, and Italian.

Preloaded Topo Maps & Satellite Imagery

The device comes with TopoActive maps for Australia and New Zealand, showing terrain contours, elevation, rivers, trails, and landmarks. When you’re planning globally, additional maps are easy to access. Using Wi-Fi, you can download high-resolution satellite imagery, helping you identify trails, campsites, stand locations, and parking spots.

Multi-Band GPS for Accurate Positioning

With multi-band GPS and multi-GNSS support, the H1i Plus locks onto your position faster and more reliably, even in dense forest, deep valleys, or rugged terrain. For bushwalking in remote areas or navigating long 4WD tracks, this accuracy can make all the difference.

Outdoor Tools for Every Adventure

Packed with sensors and tools, the H1i Plus equips you with:

• Altimeter – monitor elevation changes and climb progress.

• Barometer – track atmospheric pressure for weather awareness.

• 3-axis electronic compass – find direction even when standing still.

• Garmin Weather – access forecasts via Wi-Fi, cellular connection, or satellite when off-grid.

• LED flashlight and emergency siren – built in for added safety when daylight fades.

Long-Lasting Battery Life

With up to 145 hours in GPS mode, the H1i Plus is built for multi-day treks, extended 4WD trips, or long stints off-grid without constant recharging.

Rugged Design for Harsh Environments

Built to MIL-STD 810 standards, this device can withstand shocks, vibration, extreme heat, and freezing conditions. The IPX67 water rating ensures it survives rain, river crossings, and splashes. Dust, mud, and rough handling are no problem for the H1i Plus — it’s designed for the realities of outdoor adventure.
