Great screen, really like the larger numbers

I really like the Garmin navigation capabilities as well as the Climb Pro function. The screen setup is very flexible and easy to use. The characters on the screen are slightly larger than my prior computers which is very nice. I can easily read the important parameters while doing workouts.

The Edge 1040 just has everything you want and is big enough it's easy to use. Has all the normal Garmin quirks of the Garmin connect app but once you're used to it it's great. If you can justify the cost it's hard to make an argument for anything else (sub 1050)

The Edge 1040 is full of useful features and the screen is bright enough to read in any light. The cycling telemetry this computer tracks is phenomenal.

Garmin for the win again

Great product, the touchscreen and larger display works excellent. I use this for all of my cycling activities, the customizable screens and what seems like unlimited options is great. This is the third Garmin head unit that I've owned, I still have my other two, but it was time for a feature and display upgrade. Totally worth it.

Great for tracking ride data and navigation.

The Garmin Edge 1040 is great for tracking ride data as well as navigating routes while traveling. I like the security of knowing my wife can follow me with Live Track. And the emergency alert notification is is good for peace of mind.
This can be used by a beginner with its intuitive operation.
Also great for advanced riders who want all the detailed data.
It is best to take a little tome to learn the functionality of the buttons and screens.

Garmin has come a long ways. Came from a 500 and 810... then after the 810 died due to a torn button and no replacement parts. I went to a wahoo elemnt... wahoo defaced and would randomly turn off. Back to Garmin with this 1040 and I'll be staying.
Build quality is 10/10. Functionality is flawless. Battery life... Superior!

Great Bike Computer

Love the screen size. upgraded to the 1040 from the 530+. I have used Garmin's and the Connect App for 4 years. the ecosystem is awesome in recording data about my rides and being able to compare that data over time.
the 1040 is extremely easy to use. it set up with very little effort. the ongoing use has been awesome in being able to change the screen, how well it works overall, and the maps that can be pulled up if need to check location and direction.
I would highly recommend.
