inreach mini 3?

Is there going to be mini 3? Or is garmin ending this product line and focus just on messenger style gear? I,m curious because for me the mini is more standalone device, not depending on having smartphone with me.

I’d like to see something like an Etrex size with inreach features, something that is more useful for navigation than the mini series but still smaller than the 66/67 size and lighter too.

I really don't think so. There's definitely some overlap between the Inreach Mini and Messenger series but the messengers still don't allow for storage of waypoints, routes, courses, and tracks.

My guess, and it's only a guess, it's that they will add new features to the Inreach Mini 3 to differentiate more from the Inreach Messenger Plus, a few more basic navigation features and a bigger screen, given there is still plenty of real estate for that on the Mini.
