Garmin 550
on July 2, 2026
Posted by: Irondad Coaching
I have had this unit for about a month now, and I am enjoying it. I was a little worried that the brighter screen would kill the battery faster, but the battery has been holding up quite well. I bought this unit because it originally did not pair well with my Garmin 530, but it does a very good job with the new Garmin 820. I am really enjoying the combination, and I do like seeing the two lanes of traffic on the Varia and watching the cars actually go around me and change lanes on the screen. It is pretty nice.
Overall, this is a nice unit, and I would definitely recommend it. I am a little confused why they do not put a touch screen on all the new ones, but I guess that helps to keep the cost down. I wish this one had a bike bell, but that is just kind of frivolous. Overall, this is a nice unit, and I am enjoying it.

Battery life it’s way worst than before.

I liked it at the beginning,
I had to found out the hard way that the battery last about 10 hours , I noticed it was not a fluke but rather a feature of the computer.

I returned it.

Outstanding Edge 550

If you use any Garmin watch, this Edge works the same. Very easy to use and to be honest, it has more stuff integrated in it that I don't use. Far exceeds my expectations.

this thing is not user friendly. Been searching sources to help me with setting this up and they all seem to assume that I have a deep knowledge of the product. If I can't figure it out soon I will return it.

It s good but I thought it would find routes to ride. It record recently rode routes and you can pick from them but new routes from maps that popular for cyclists. Or I don’t know how to do it

Christmas present to myself . I would have been happier with a lump of COAL !!! The Edge Explorer 2 that the 550 is replacing was a much better, user friendly design.

Only the russian alphabet is available on the keyboard for the Ukrainian region . It's like bullying.
