inReach Mini 3

I saw that the mini2’s were on sale everywhere, which got me wondering if a mini3 was on the horizon.

Google turned this up.

Anyone know anything?

Pretty steep discount, in comparison to the usual sales. You may be correct. Something new may be coming.

My initial thoughts are they might be working on discontinuing them. They have the messenger ones now and may want to reduce the product line up. I did notice this week they have a new inreach gps that looked pretty nice. Longer battery life than the alpha 200i I am using and provides a secondary map if I were to break my phone.

Did you see the link I provided? It says “mini3” and out of stock. Curious if that just went up early by accident.

I did see it and you’re likely right. Someone probably messed up and put it up early and then took it down. I have noticed when they come out with new products the old ones tend to come on sale at a better price than most other sales. Time will tell. I just don’t understand the difference between the inreach minis and the messengers and was wondering if they would eliminate one for the other.

Next model is probably just an app to use with your phone which now works in the backcountry...
