Does the Garmin 830 touch screen work in the rain

I am interested in buying an 830 but am being a bit put off by reports of the touch screen not working when it is wet. Has this be fixed with recent softwear updates or is that not possible.

Hi

Chances are that it hasn’t and won’t be fixed as most touch screens aren’t designed to be used underwater

Most smart devices have the same issue and it’s mostly hardware related

I wouldn’t let it put you off though as you will see this sort of thing on most smart devices

Hopefully this helps

Any questions please ask

Thanks:-)
