Thanks for the great review. I gave my 830 to my son and got myself a 1030 Plus. The louder tone on the 1030 Plus is very very nice. Sometimes with wind or traffic noise the 830 becomes inaudible. Also after a few rides in I got used to the large screen of the 1030 Plus. Now the 830 looks tiny, lol. I wondered how I survived with such a small screen on the 830. The main reason why I upgraded is because while the 830 is readable on smooth roads it becomes unreadable when riding on rough roads like gravel roads. The 1030 Plus is a nice upgrade over the 830 in that respect.

I just disabled rerouting on my 1030+. It just confused me, and the screen is so large and being touchscreen it's easy to work out how to rejoin the route. No such rerouting problem on the Bolt V2, which is more intuitive.

hmm I think I'm still going with Garmin edge 830 model, much more compact. You do get ALL maps excluding Asia, but maps are not the issue really. Initially I thought that it will be an issue when navigation come into play having smaller screen on 830 compared to 1030 where you see just a little bit more ahead, but it's really not the problem at all, and people having the experience with 1030 jumping to 830 or 530 can confirm that.

Garmin maps still looks like a Nintendo 8-bit inspired interface. I literally had flashbacks to my “GPS V” circa 2003. It remains a much more viable option to buy a cheap HD Android phone for your fitness device ... and the UI feels 2020 👌🏻

There is a really great comparison between the Karoo 2 vs Garmin 1030 vs Wahoo Roam on KZitem - I’m sorry to say that Garmin innovation is really fallen behind when compared to the Karoo 2 user interface which has a decent resolution, graphics and refresh rate. Humans from 2020 don’t deserve to suffer from Garmins “Nintendo 8 bit” technology 🤨

Navigation capabilities will be nearly the same - I'd say it's more about usability and size. The 1030/1030 Plus may be easier to use and see due to it's larger screen but it's also just a larger device, which for MTB can be an issue to keep it out of the way. Thanks!

Very good review and to the point. There is one aspect missing here though: can the fields on the screen be configured. Let's say I want to have my heart rate displayed on the same screen as the navigation directions so that I don't need to keep switching screens. Is this possible with this device?

Yes. You can have 2 customisable data fields on the map screen (as well as the mini elevation profile) - and all the other pure data screens are fully customisable and you can have as many or as few as you like. There are also widgets in tje IQ store that provide cool custom graphical layouts fed by the underlying data. This is the best bike GPS I’ve used, by a long way. Blows the 1000 away.

What i'm missing in the 800 is that you don't get navigation warnings to go left or right when mountainbiking. Is this a feature that works on the 1030plus or am i'm doing something wrong?? Greetz

The 1030 and 1030 Plus are really nice to use for navigation since it has the large screen, but the 830 is a bit smaller which is a bit more convenient from a size standpoint, plus it is less susceptible to damage due to it's size.

Feature differences will be negligible between the two. The 1030 Plus provides a larger display which makes it easier to use for navigation, but the 830 still works great. Size is a big consideration.

@DesFit
4 жыл бұрын
The main thing with a bike computer is that it's probably going to be a lot safer mounted on your handlebars than a phone. Then, you also have the additional capability of connecting a host of external sensors. Also, the screen on these sort of devices are optimized for readability in direct sunlight where a phone can have glare in certain situations. And then I'll mention it, but battery life :)

The most basic would be the Edge 130 or 130 Plus which both have the Extended Display functionality that would just display the data that is being collected on your watch, however it still can record independently if you wish. kzitem.info/news/bejne/jmqAtpxre4l3YIo
