Battery life is the headline

Battery life and price were my priority with this purchase. I didn’t want to shell out more money for the 1050 with much worse battery even though it has a better screen. I’m upgrading from an 830, so in all ways the experience with the 1040 is improved. Nothing will feel unfamiliar if you’re upgrading from an older model. The reviews about the solar screen being a little harder to see aren’t wrong. It’s mostly fine, but don’t expect it to perform like an iPhone screen. In situations where the sun is behind you and your body casts shadow on the computer it can be a little harder to see. Otherwise I think it’s absolutely fine. I haven’t run the battery dead, but even in winter conditions it looks like I should get at least 40 hrs of ride time on a charge. That is outstanding IMO. I just did a whole week of riding in Arizona and didn’t even charge the thing.

Feature rich, display lacking

Wonderful unit to use if only it was brighter. The solar makes it dimm we r than the 1030+ and the solar charging isn't worth anything. Very disappointing unit compared with the 1050 and even the older units.

Very Pleased.

Pleased that it has a larger screen over the smaller model I first had. Pleased that it has the Sonor feature.

Great device but one problem

I bought this device thinking the battery would last me atleast 20 hours. But sadly after a 6 hour ride the battery from 100% dropped to 20%. Maybe I got a defective unit.

I unfortunately didn't install a screen protector and scratched the screen. Also the navigation can be at times glitchy. But besides these issues great product very polished and excellent battery life. I would recommend this for anyone that can afford it.

Solar - Bikepacking

I bought my Edge 1040 Solar because I bikepack long distances. I just rode a 3 day ride and I was very happy I did not have to charge my Garmin every night. I still carried my charger just in case but the fact that the battery last much longer made me less worried of running out of power. I use a course with all the turn points and do not have it on power saver mode. I am happy with the technology and the new added screens Garmin has added. I love it

I know it is pricey, but man is this an essential computer for bike touring. I used this on a 7 day ride with minimal sunlight and I only plugged it in once. The touch screen is responsive and reliable, and screen is huge, and customizing the views is a great feature. Syncs up immediately with my Garmin lights and the app. Big, big fan.
