Re: a suitable carry case or alternative?

So went and got this item, it popped up in one of my searches and seems to fit the bill:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01697R9TW/

some pics of it with the garmin, a little larger than the XT but not by much and has a nice soft feel.

Thanks I'll have a look.

Thanks Colirv what size did you get or was it a generic zumo xt specific one? I seem to only find 5inch cases which feel too small for the XT?

TIA.

Re: Maximum Size SD card

So my 256gb card just came this morning and had the same issues, it was just not seeing the card.

I followed the advice a few posts up, keep the Zumo XT switched on, then place the card and lock it, and voila the format option pops up and I now have a readable card on the Zumo! Thanks all! :-)

Purchased one after my Pixel 6 came off the bike!

Evening all, I have been eyeing up the Zumo XT or 396 initially (due to price) for ages. Hoping for a sale or good enough discounts?! And then last Saturday, my Google Pixel 6 Pro decided to come off my tank mount with the wind.. and a few trucks and tens of cars later... totally trashed! :cry: So ...
