My review of the Edge 1050
on September 1, 2026
Posted by: Bici Judy
I used to have the Edge 1030 Plus. It stopped syncing with Garmin Connect, so Garmin sent me the Edge 1050. I love it. The courses are much easier to follow----the maps are just easier to read. I love the fact that I can download rides wirelessly and that rides automatically sync to Garmin Connect and Strava. I love the fact that the %grade data seems to reflect the %grade at the moment rather than the %grade from 5 seconds ago.

So far so good. Used for a few weeks. Coming from a 810 so big upgrade. Screen is great. Handy safety features.

Nice display and nice battery life, though not as good as the 1040.

Why did I wait?

Upgraded from an edge 1030. I absolutely love the sounds of the alerts and the screen visual quality. There are a few minor software items that would make my training better but, it is more me specific rather than a 1050 shortcoming. It boots up quickly, battery last a long time, the built in bell is nice, it pairs with my Di2 perfectly, I wish I had purchased one sooner!! I highly recommend the edge 1050.

Nice, big display!

Great cycling computer. Better than all the ones I've owned previously, including Garmin and Wahoo units. But, of course, for the price, and in 2026, it'd better be. I am far sighted now so the big display was the main reason for buying it and it did not disappoint. However, not sure how, but the UI could be improved somehow. Different readings could be shown in different colors, even bigger font? I keep only a few items at a time (3 is perfect) on each screen (data display) to I can read. Electronic shifting gears could be shown in big numbers instead of actual gear as another option? Again, the small fonts do not help me at all, especially when riding at 20+ mph. Colors could be used on each data element (font itself or box background) so that it may show green when perfect value, e.g. for cadence, within a certain (configurable) range; for power, HR, etc. their own configurable range, and so on and so forth. This way, one can quickly glance at the screen and if you see green, you're good, depending on your training goals for that ride. This way, also, if your heart rate is too high, it could be shown with red background box. Heart rate background color could also fade in and out to the rhythm of the heart rate itself, that'd be pretty cool. So many ideas.

Smooth device, works great

After the first installation, I had some issues with the map for example when selecting a route and the doing the calculation. But I have found out that reinstalling the maps fixed the issue for me. Overall the device runs smooth, is fast and the screen is brilliant. The bell is a great addition to alert other cyclist or pedestrians on the road. After the 840, this is a real upgrade.
