Default Which is the better GPS? Garmin Rino® 530HCx or Garmin Gpsmap® 60CSx

Which is the better GPS? Garmin Rino® 530HCx or Garmin GPSMAP® 60CSx. I know the basic differences between the GPS is that the Garmin Rino® 530HCx is a 2-way radio and the Garmin GPSMAP® 60CSx is not. I'm more interested in finding out which one is a better GPS? If the Garmin GPSMAP® 60CSx is a better GPS, than I wouldn't mind carrying a separate 2-way radio, but if the Garmin Rino® 530HCx is just as good as the Garmin GPSMAP® 60CSx, then I'll buy it. Besides the having the radio on the Garmin Rino® 530HCx are they basically the same GPS? The price difference is about $100.00 more for the Garmin Rino® 530HCx, is it worth it or not? Thank you!

I went through that a year ago because they name the chip in the 60CSx but not in the rhino. All they state is that the rhino has a high sensitivity chip. End of the day I went with the rhino and haven't regretted it since. I love my 530HCx!!!!

I own 2 RINO 120 and I lved those radios till I got the RINO 530. Now the RIno 530 chx came out I am think about getting one of those too. The RINO 530 is the same aas the RINO 530 chx minus the chip the chip make s a big differnecs. I bought a lap top so I can store tracks on when I go hunting. I also use the lap top with Garmins ENROUTE as a navigational tool. I LOVE MY GARMIN RADIOS.
