Best device for navigation workouts and rhythm measurement.

- Marcel, 16 June, 2024

Upgraded from a wahoo bolt 1, it did exactly what you need a bike computer for. Only reason I wanted to upgrade is Garmin ecosystem (vario and hr) and much better navigation. Does exactly that one more, probably never going to get everything out of the device, but what I use m for. (Measuring ride, seeing traffic coming up behind and navigating) the unit more than satisfies. Compared to the wahoo, it is a more striking device, a lot bigger and heavier though, but I accept that, as the navigation is much better. And also controllable from the unit.

Pros & Cons

Good navigation, fast recalculations
Good readable screen
Integration with training apps and komoot
Solar function ensures longer duration.
Battery
Not cheap
Not entirely inconspicuous

Cost something, get something

Nice upgrade over the 830. The extra buttons on the side are very nice. Battery life is more than good. Screen to perform workouts is clearer compared to the 830. I did turn off the amount of notifications, got quite crazy with all the warnings for a turn, chance of heavy traffic etc.

Pros & Cons

Battery life
Screen size
Side control buttons
Recalculation if you go off a GPX route

- Kasper, 2 July, 2023

The 840 is much better in terms of functionality than the 830, speed, touchscreen and buttons better satellite reception! Obviously very long battery life Equivalent to the 1040, but let's face it, the size of the 840 looks much better on you nice road bike than the 1040,( of course this is also a bit personal).

Pros & Cons

Battery life
Satellite reception
Touchscreen,speed
None so far
