Irritating to navigate with
I bought this device to follow multi-day routes and to navigate to a poi (e.g. a hotel) in between. However as soon as you deviate from a route and want to pick it up again further on, it sends you back to the point where you left the route for a long time or it recalculates a new route to your end point. This has been complained about a lot on the forum and it seems to be fixed in the 1030plus but not in the 830. Also, the readability is substandard. I regret this purchase, a smartphone with a power bank works much better: there are legion of apps that do it better.
Pros & Cons

Bad buy and not recommended. Is difficult to set up and not do.
I see very few plus points. Also too expensive for this navigation. It can be made better and also understandable. I also haven't been able to do much with it yet. Can't plot routes on it myself either. Too bad for my money. I do not recommend this one. bad buy.
