Easy To See!!!

Love the new 1050, beautiful easy to see screen, perfect size, great product and intuitive.

Edge 1050

This new edge is very easy to sync and utilize the various functions. I am not a tech oriented and found it user friendly.

Great Except…

Very comprehensive and bright snd easy to read. Visibility was my main criterium. Large learning curve, but the more I use it, the easier it gets to find what I’m looking for in the many menus. Start up works pretty well and connections are smooth EXCEPT WHY WON’T GARMIN CONNECT WITH APPLE WATCH HEART RATE!!!! It is so annoying to have to wear a separate arm band just to get my heart rate into the 1050. After all it does connect to my iphone seamlessly and Apple heart rate connects to all the other apps I use. I compared readings between apple watch hr and Garmin from an arm band over a 15 mile ride and they were always within 1 beat of each other, sometimes the same. Apple and Garmin are watch competitors, I know. But it almost caused me to NOT buy a Garmin bike computer. Had it not had brightest display/battery time combo, I would have bought a competitor so I could use my Apple watch with it. And connections apps are more trouble than they are worth!

Full Of Capabilities And Great Display

I’ve have the Edge 1050 for almost six months now. I use it for mainly for MTB and indoors during the winter months. The integration with Trail Forks is nearly flawless. In less than a minute or two I can have routes uploaded from the web to Garmin Connect and to the Edge. Or even quicker directly from Trail Forks. I don’t like the search function, so I typically put thought into my route ahead of time. Fork Sight is great when navigating larger trail networks. It gives a lot of stats when paired with the required sensors. My only thought of opportunities is an improved mount. It needs torquing every 2-3 rides and after a few months it went flying after the mount broke. Luckily I had it tethered. The most recent update to include a weather map with wind or precipitation overlays was much needed.

Great Features

I have had it for a month. I like how it shows graphs while you ride. I have had many Garmin’s and this one is the best
