              Garmin eTrex 20x vs Garmin eTrex 30x - User Opinions

                For the most part, the eTrex 30x shares all the same functionalities as the eTrex 20x with just slightly more features yet again. The major upgrade that the eTrex 30x offers over the eTrex 20x is the in-built electronic compass, barometric altimeter, and the ability to transfer data wirelessly with similar devices.Nov 27, 2017
