Specifications GPS 12 MAP
Posted: Thu Aug 20, 2026 10:48 pm
Based on the GPS 12 brochure I assumed that all models had the same screen size and resolution (64 x 100) (also mentioned on your website).
Yesterday I acquired a GPS 12MAP for my collection, and I noticed right away that the screen is slightly bigger than the screen of the GPS 12. After turning it on the resolution was clearly higher. Luckily the xImage app is compatible with this model, so I didn't have to count the pixels manually. The real resolution is 100 x 160.
As for the size it's a bit difficult to measure comparing to what Garmin states in the specifications, but the opening between the black borders is 4 mm higher and 2 mm wider.
The image on the brochure is different from the one on the manual, the latter is the right one. Or maybe there was a revision of this model?
