Our take on the Garmin inReach Mini 3 Compact SOS Satellite Communicator with Touchscreen 010-03387-00

The Garmin inReach Mini 3 is a palm-sized satellite communicator that sends and receives two-way messages, shares your location and triggers an SOS over the Iridium network, so it works where cell service does not. It adds a color touchscreen and a rugged, lightweight body, and Garmin rates it for up to 350 hours of battery in tracking mode. It requires an active inReach subscription to message or use SOS. The best new price is $454.99 at Best Buy as of November 7, 2026, the only new price listed.
