Sadly, not quite what I expected.

I am a dyed-in-the-wool Garmin fan and my old Garmin was great. The 530 is hard to use and the display is almost illegible. It's is wasted space with small font. It is not a touch screen and hard to manipulate while riding. In it's favor, the phone Link and autoload are great features and the ride statistics when transferred to another device are awesome. After the fact statistics are great but I need visible, meaningful information in plain view, and sadly the 530 fails in that department.

Good computer but requiring steep learning curve

I have found that getting to the Activity screen to start a ride with current display information can be difficult, or confusing, especially if one does not ride frequently. There are so many options that the primary activity screens are obscured. Once one establishes the main riding screens, it would be nice if the option screens were a little harder to access.

Fantastic all-around GPS bundle
on February 22, 2022
Posted by: Teri G
This little unit is exactly what I needed for all of my cycling. It is loaded with local trail names and street maps, and has the ability to pull maps from other platforms and download to it. I can easily swap between gravel, mountain biking or road cycling. It syncs to the HRM that I already had from a previous garmin bundle. Specific features I especially like include the push button vs touch screen (since I often ride with full finger gloves), the turn by turn directions, elevation maps, and hill climb data. I've taken it on many turbulent rides and the unit stays secure on my handlebars.

Sensors will not connect
on February 21, 2022

Tried many times and spent many hours, online guides, owners manual but cadence and heart rate sensors will not connect. Also speed sensor works but is about 10 percent inaccurate.

I’m loving it. It’s great and easy on the battery. Was better once I got all the screens set up it’s perfect.
