Do you like stats?
on November 3, 2023
Posted by: Foley Flash
If you do, this is the computer for you. The biggest plus from my perspective is the rework of the UI from the Garmin 30 series (530, 830, 1030). It’s much more intuitive and the integration with sensors like the Varia RTL715 radar (which I have) is great. Cheap it is not, but it will provide as many statistics as you could ever want and a larger screen to display them all on.

Used it now for a few rides: battery life is great for longer rides. The screen is larger than my old 520, and it is much more responsive/sensitive. For navigation purpose it is great!

The 1040 has a learning curve of which this ol' 77 yr old is still navigating. I ride a 3-wheel recumbent which extends the distance from my eyes. This computer has been easier to see and seems to be faster at computing the various metrics. I am glad to have upgraded to the 1040 and look forward to discovering its capabilities!

Some good features
on November 17, 2023

I've had 1040 for two weeks, I really like many of the features. Especially, the battery life and how quickly it boots up. On the other, the display is extremely difficult to read with sunglasses on, and the navigation really lags to catch up with off-route changes. My other bike computer is far superior in these two categories. Not sure if I'm going to return the 1040 or keep it, I have another 10 days to decide.

I bought to replace a buggy computer from another brand and couldn’t be happier with the stability, easy of use, mount bar, UX, music control, and the fundamentals that’s reasonably accurate and this helpful. I do recommend it !!
