You won't be disappointed. Just upgraded the -4 and flew it for an hour last week (Single 10' touch, gdl30, gps20a, gtx23es, gmc307) and loved it. It's even fun to play with in the hangar.

One limitation I've discovered in my GTN650/G3X Touch combo so far that's frustrating: no ability to included altitudes in a flight plan. So in an Arrival procedure with several altitude step-downs, these all have to be entered real-time, which can be high workload when approaching at 250kts.

Are you talking user defined VNAV for a given waypoint in the 650's flight plan setup with VCALC vs. a loaded and activated STAR?

Right, a STAR. The G3X VNAV only works for one point.
