Pros & Cons

Pros & Cons

  • Impressive battery life of up to 35 hours when used intensively (or up to 70 hours in battery saver mode).
  • New multi-band satellite technology for the best GPS reception, even when cycling in dense forest or in the busy city.
  • The Edge 1040 gives you insight into your VO2 max, recovery time and training load, and you'll learn how your body responds to training.
  • Despite its clear legibility, the Edge 1040 is on the large side for a bike computer.
  • The Garmin Edge 1040's battery life is shorter than that of the Garmin Edge 1040 Solar.

Do not hesitate

- Leroy 5 June 2026

After first buying the Edge Explore 2, I switched anyway, should have done so straight away! This bike computer is much more complete, the screen is about the same size but of the 1040 much sharper and brighter, which is not a luxury but the difference between readable and not. I used the Explore 2 alongside my Garmin watch, but with the 1040 I can rely on the bike computer alone. At the current price, it's value for money.

Strange that this is not mentioned anywhere in the product description.

- Rob 8 April 2026

Below is a piece of text (page 63 of the manual. Your device is displayed in This PC on Windows® computers as a removable drive. Because Mac® operating systems have limited support for MTP (Media Transfer Protocol) mode for file transfer, you must use the Garmin Express™ application to transfer your device on a Mac.

Pros & Cons

Almost what I am used to from Garmin
Difficult to operate due to the above.
Memory could be larger, full by included maps
No longer compatible with Mac OS
