According to the product specialist
Pros
The high-resolution screen and matte finish, which prevents screen shadow, provide a very sharp image. |
The backlight automatically adjusts so you can read the screen clearly in any situation. |
The Karoo 2 features turn-by-turn navigation for every route, with audio prompts and visual indicators to make sure you never miss a turn. |
The Climbing Challenge feature lets you see in advance which climbs lie ahead with details on length, gradient and duration. |
The Hammerhead Karoo 2 can connect to the internet via WiFi, mobile hotspot or a SIM card that can be put into it. |
Bright and colourful 3-inch waterproof touchscreen, fully customisable according to your needs! |
Equipped with all navigation features, such as loading routes from Strava and Komoot, a Back-to-Start function or simple address entry. |
Easy to connect with external sensors, such as a cadence meter, power meter or heart rate belt. |
Always safe on the road with the innovative Crash Alert and Home-route function. |
Insight into your routes, training data and period statistics via the free SIGMA RIDE app on your phone. |
Impressive battery life of 45 hours with demanding usage (or up to 100 hours in battery saver mode). |
New multi-band satellite technology gives you the best GPS reception, even when cycling in dense forest areas or in the busy city. |
The Edge 1040 Solar gives you insight into your VO2 max, recovery time and training load, and lets you learn how your body responds to training. |
The Garmin can be charged during your ride through a solar panel in the display, for up to 42 minutes of battery life per hour during daytime riding. |
Cons
The Hammerhead Karoo 2 needs to be recharged after approximately 12 hours of use. |
Does not come with heart rate, cadence and speed sensors. |
Does not have an accident detection feature. |
With heavy use, the battery will not last as long as other bike computers in the same price category. |
Despite its good readability, the Edge 1040 is rather large for a bike computer. |
