Garmin Edge 1040 Solar GPS Bike Computer | 2022 Cycling GPS Computer with VO2 Max, Maps, & Multi-GNSS | Cycle Bundle with PlayBetter Tempered Glass Screen, Black Case & MTB Mounts

Tried to upgrade from an Edge 1000, but FAIL FAIL and FAIL!

The Garmin 1030 is blind even with GPS eyes. It is nowhere close to as simple and user friendly as the Garmin 1000. Its app installed to my phone, shows speed, presents a location map and reports GPS access is ok but always fails to show distance. Ive registered it with Garmin, installed and linked it to my smart phone, studied all instructions, negotiated an endless series of screens and googled how to setup and use it to report distance cycled. Still fails. Im 100% fed up this this overly complex Rube Goldberg expression of complex and meaningless steps leading nowhere. It simply does not report distance cycled. Returning the 1030 and going back to my trusty Garmin 1000

I love it

The Best! Highly Recommend for any and all Cyclist

cumple con mis expectativas!

I have used Garmin for years in my cars. That is why I bought Garmin for my bike. What a mistake!

Remarkable step up from the Garmin Edge 1000.

Ive been using Garmin Edge cycling computers ever since 2014, and for the most part Ive liked them. Ive had the Edge 1000, Edge 1030, and now the Edge 1030 Plus. Unfortunately I couldnt get the Edge 1030 Plus to work with my iPhone 11 Pro. I tried pairing it again and again, and it didnt work until maybe 15 attempts. It finally did pair, but I was nervous that this would be an ongoing problem, so I unpaired it, and tried to pair it again. I was never able to pair it again, so I ended up returning it.

The overview of the Garmin user interface is a bit arcane. I eventually got to where I was very happy with the Edge 700 but it took a while. This is clearly going to take a while too. I would have designed it differently from the beginning.

Item works great!
