Our take on the Garmin inReach Mini 3 Plus Rugged Satellite Communicator with Touchscreen

The Garmin inReach Mini 3 Plus is a palm-sized satellite communicator that works over the Iridium network, so it sends two-way texts and triggers interactive SOS with Garmin Response far outside cell coverage. It adds a 1.9-inch color touchscreen, a built-in speaker and microphone for 30-second voice messages, and photo sharing through the Garmin Messenger app. GPS location sharing, TracBack routing, a digital compass and LiveTrack cover navigation, and the IP67 impact-resistant case suits backcountry use. It is the most feature-dense Mini yet, trading the plain button interface of earlier inReach models for a touchscreen and voice clips, at the cost of a subscription and a higher device price than basic satellite messengers.

Questions and answers

Do I need a subscription to use it?
Yes. Satellite messaging, SOS and tracking run on an active inReach subscription plan. The device also pairs with a phone for setup and app features.
How is it different from the inReach Mini 2?
The Mini 3 Plus adds a 1.9-inch color touchscreen, a speaker and microphone for 30-second voice messages, and photo sharing through the Garmin Messenger app. The Mini 2 relies on a button interface and text-only messaging.
Can it send voice messages without a phone?
Voice messaging is handled through the Garmin Messenger app on a paired smartphone. The built-in speaker and microphone play and record those clips; the satellite link carries the message.
How long does the battery last?
Garmin rates it at up to 350 hours with 10-minute inReach tracking and up to 95 hours in performance messaging modes. Heavy messaging and tracking shorten that.
Is it waterproof?
It carries an IP67 rating, so it withstands dust and brief immersion in water. The impact-resistant polymer case is built for rough backcountry handling.
What comes in the box?
The device ships with a loop carabiner for attaching it to a pack, vest or belt. A charging cable and documentation are included.
