Great Display
on December 25, 2024
Posted by: PBRider
I purchased my Edge 1050 about 3 weeks ago. I’ve owned several Garmin Edge computers in the past and this is easily the best. I love the bright display and design. Battery life is really good. The music interface is one of my favorite features! Negatives for me include not find a way to sync my heart rate from my Apple Ultra Watch (I gave up and purchased a heart rate monitor strap I didn’t want), Strava segment set-up took too long to figure out and the unit is really expensive.

So far so good

I bought a 1040 and sent it back because it didn’t have volume control and some other features so I sent it back and got the 1050. This really out performs my old 1030. I just wish there was a hands on class to show you how to use all the new features.

1050 edge

I bought this a few weeks ago. It has a very nice screen and I love the vibrant colors. I wouldn’t use this for racing, but it’s definitely a good choice for training and longer rides.

this was a pleasant surprise- I upgrade my devices pretty much every other release - vs. the 1030 this is a massive improvement across the board!

Coming from a 1030, turns on faster, loads faster, connects to sensors faster, tones for radar are better, has a amazing bike bell and bonus with DI2 you can set up one of the option buttons to ring bell instead of on the screen. and did I mention the screen? works smoother, much more like you smart phone and just looks so much better.

Impressive GPS Computer

My first ride told me I made the right investment. The screen is beautiful and so easy to read, night and day between my 830 which was a challenge to read. I love the features, the bell, the climbing function, the light network, the training. Wifi updates are slick too. The battery only went down to 82% after a 1 1/2 hour ride. I look forward to more miles with it.

Garmin 1050 - love it but struggling!
on December 10, 2024
Posted by: Densa
The Edge 1050 is a beast ! side note: the jubilation of ownership is diminished with a LONG learning curve to familiarize and used all that the 1050 offers. It takes a few minutes before the ride to get all the sensors on line between the speed, cadence, HMR-PRO - Varia RCT 715, front and rear lights and the enduro 2 watch. Struggling to synch the electronic gears to the 1050. During the ride its info overload, screens, data and what are all these sounds it's making and which has precedence the 1050 or the Enduro? more mysteries to be solved! The real game changer is the situational awareness provided by the Varia RCT-715! This is an absolute necessity for anyone who rides on the roads. Again - a steep learning curve but slowly getting through trial and error. Garmin makes superb equipment. Hope to benefit from it all soon.

I love my Garmin cycling computer. It has all the great functions for workouts and navigation and the new display is awesome. Easy to read and very bright.
