Upgraded from 830
Top reviews from the United States
There was a problem filtering reviews. Please reload the page.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 20, 2024Style: Edge 1040 SolarPattern: Bike ComputerVerified PurchaseI have always used Garmin for gps cycling computers. I started with edge 510, upgraded to the 830 and on this most recent Gamin sale convinced myself to give the 1040 solar a try.
In terms of size, I was initially shocked by how big it was compared to 830. It is smaller than my iPhone 15 pro. But the thing is big. That being said, once you have it in hand for a few minutes you start to appreciate how big it is. Its not too big, but it makes getting around menus and settings a little easier. I just took it out for a 4 hour ride and once its on the bike I didn't mind the size. I actually appreciated the larger screen. Felt like it was easier to see metrics at a glance.
Battery is good too. Rode for 4 hours late afternoon/early evening. Battery dropped 14% and it said that I gained 17 minutes of battery life from solar while on the ride.
The other thing I really like that I could not do on my 830 is you can adjust settings and data display screens/activity profiles from the phone and sync it with the device.
The cons so far is that my radar, shifters and phone would sometimes disconnect and then immediately reconnect, or the device was at least showing that banner a few times. If that happened with the 830 it didn't notify me like it did today on the first ride with it. Only happened a few times and wasn't annoying enough to dock it a star.
If the device starts to annoy me or give me issues ill update this. Otherwise I wasn't sure about its size but after the first ride im leaning more towards keeping it than not.

This is my first time with Garmin and I really like many things like ClimbPro and the navigation turn by turn.
I can connect with other sensors like Polar and works fine.
Solar battery is good enough by the moment, I need to try on a long route (more than 185 Miles). Great and expensive...
- Reviewed in the United States on September 3, 2022Style: Edge 1040 SolarPattern: Bike ComputerVerified PurchaseI'll preface this review by saying that I am fully bought into the Garmin ecosystem, including an Epix 2 watch, various HRM straps, and a reliance on Connect for most of my performance tracking. I used am Edge 1030 Plus for a year (for both road and mountain riding) before upgrading. I was perfectly happy with the 1030, and really tried to resist the upgrade urge when this unit was released, but I gave in pretty quickly.
Am I happy with my upgrade? Yes, overall, but that stems from the fact that I am a Garmin fanboy and I really wanted a few specific features that Garmin has made clear they will NOT retroactively add to older head units. I find a lot of value in the stamina data fields for long road rides (especially in the Texas heat), but I was most interested in the new UI, including the home screen and the new way that widgets are handled. I find it to be far more usable and informative than the old UI. I'm in my mid-50's and that is why I got the 1030 Plus originally -- screen real estate and readability -- smaller computers are a challenge for my eyes at this point. The redesigned UI really works well for me on that front but, of course, that is purely a subjective matter -- I strongly suggest you take a look at one at your LBS, or watch the excellent DC Rainmaker/GP Lama reviews to determine if you personally find the new UI appealing.
On to the main gimmick of this unit -- solar. Thus far, I am unimpressed, Again, this is a subjective matter in that my rides may bear no resemblance to yours. On a typical summer morning road ride of, say, 25 miles in a mix of suburban tree cover and open sky, I typically generate about 2.5 minutes worth of solar recharge. Not meaningful, for many of my most typical rides. I'll update that if I find a material shift as I start pushing my start-times later in the fall - I imagine it will make a big difference when I ride with the sun directly overhead at noon, rather than at a morning angle. If you're an enduro specialist living in Arizona, you might find it to be much more beneficial, but for my riding style, it is purely a nice-to-have for now. I will say that I have had zero pairing issues with it, and I did have a few with my 1030 Plus - mostly related to my SRAM eTap group set. Everything paired flawlessly out of the box for the 1040, and has been 100% stable thus far -- transferring data from my 1030 Plus was also a breeze.
So, I'm a compulsive upgrader and early adopter, and the improved GPS accuracy, UI, and new data fields make this worth the upgrade for me. I think, though, that for many people with a 1030 or 1030 Plus, you'd be fine (and more economically sensible than me) to skip a generation.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 8, 2024Style: Edge 1040 SolarPattern: Bike ComputerVerified PurchaseI've been using Garmin devices for years. This one replaces an old Edge 830 that stopped working. This is a state of the art bike computer with just about every feature a rider could imagine. I especially enjoy the new "climb profile" function. My only complaint is that integration with Garmin Connect seems to have some issues. Not all the data comes through as it should. I've contacted Garmin Customer Service about this but no resolution as of yet.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 6, 2024Style: Edge 1040 SolarPattern: Bike ComputerVerified Purchaseman, i have used 4 edge now. i love riding my bike. i had like a 530 last with no touch screen. having that is REALLY nice. i did not like my 530 at all. the size as well makes it so easy to read when biking. the 530 had many buttons and i always forgot what they all did. it was very annoying. the 1040 s has only like a couple making it A LOT easier to remember what they do.
garmin really just makes top end stuff. i have a fenix and have had several and several edges. this 1040 will be my last edge for a while.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
