Hello: I am in the market for a new GPS to use for travel...I currently am using a Garmin Montana, but it is like a brick to carry around...Are there any good GPS models that are thin and easy to carry in a pocket, similar to a thin smartphone? Thanks for the advice...

Steve

I have the garmin 3598, it has a magnet on the back to mount to the cradle, so there is no bracket arrangement to make it chunkier. It is very slim could easily be confused with a smartphone.

However to protect it, it needs a case, which in turn adds size. The screens on all these new devices look very vulnerable to damage, especially like this one with a bezel-less design.
