Solid GPS

This is an upgrade coming from a Wahoo, with good customization in the app or on the unit itself. The app takes some time to learn to navigate, but once you do it's easy. The one thing holding it back from 5 stars is the lack of customization on the map screen. Would love to be able to see the map and my power guide at the same time.

I have used Garmin products, such as smartwatches and cycling computers, for over four years now. After using my Garmin 840, all I can say is that I am impressed. One feature that I really enjoyed, compared to my old Garmin computer, is the music control screen that allows the user to change songs and control the volume. I also enjoy the customization available on different riding profiles, such as mountain biking and road biking. Overall, it is a great product for both entry-level and experienced riders.

This has been a great bike computer and I haven't even dived in to all the features yet. Easy to set up and use, and easy to turn off all the beeping.

Great looking data, so little time!

Upgraded from the Edge 130.
Huge jump from 130, I'm talking going from riding a scooter, to jumping on ZX-6R (if not familiar with motorcycles it's really really powerful)
Practically a smart phone on your bike. Actually, it almost completely eliminates the need for to have a phone on you, other than a phones primary function as a communication device.
UI is a bit finicky with the touch screen, however it's intuitive and bright enough to be viewed across any conditions without ruining the battery life. Which is good, but could be better. I'd opt for the solar option if making the decision again.

The 840 is an amazing upgrade!

Garmin still has the problem of either wanting to interact more than it should or being to complex at very very simple things. Overall great upgrade from my previous Edge 530

Everything You Want

The Garmin Edge 840 works perfectly with my bike, my power pedals, and my headlamp.
It's easy enough to understand and operate, about as customizable as you want, and the screen is easy to read.
The battery life is great.
The only reason I didn't give it a 10 is that I might want a slightly bigger screen. But this thing is awesome!

Great Cycling Computer

This computer does it all: reliable, easy to use, live track feature, trail suggestions, route calculations, hill climb metrics, etc. The only downfall is that I wish I had purchased this sooner!
