I was contacted in April 2017 by ActiveJR who had tested my FREE British-Isle map, and then purchased my TT HD Topo style British-Isles maps too (which are far more detailed). Other regional versions that also come with real TOPO maps include the Asia Pacific models. This is all rather strange, as the US version of them do come with TOPO maps that include contours (these are the US 100K TOPO maps). Therefore, the Fenix 5 Plus, 5s Plus and 5x Plus European model maps are not TOPO maps at all, as they neither have elevation shading or contour lines. Like the Fenix 5x before the new 5, 5s and 5x Plus models are advertised as coming supplied with TOPO maps installed, are in fact, Garmin’s TOPO Active maps of Europe, but without the elevation shading that these maps have on the other Garmin devices, such as the Etrex 25/35, 20 and 30x models. These rugged, premium-crafted watches feature routable colour mapping, wrist-based heart rate, storage for up to 500 songs and our Garmin Pay ready contactless payment solution.” “For athletes and outdoor adventurers, the watches of the fenix 5 Plus Series are the high-performance way to beat yesterday and bring your maps and music along. Garmin advertise the new Fenix 5 Plus series as follows: I’ve had this confirmed by owners of all the new models (all over the world)! The biggest change with the new Plus models, is that they all support on device maps so they all work fine with my maps. These improve on the feature set, display (on the 5 and 5s Plus) and functionality meet the Fenix 5 Plus, Fenix 5s Plus and Fenix 5x Plus. However, Garmin have now released successors to the original Fenix 5, 5s and 5x models. Garmin have created a number of smart-watches that have GPS functionality, the last ones were the Fenix 5, 5s, 5x, Tactix Charlie, D2 Charlie and Descent Mk1, which were very good and also worked with my maps (except for the original Fenix 5 and 5s).
