Garmin Edge 840, Compact GPS Cycling Computer with Touchscreen and Buttons, Targeted Adaptive Coaching, Advanced Navigation and More

I’m really glad I purchased this. It exceeds all my expectations. After reading the reviews and watching videos, I nearly passed on the upgraded model with solar. I splurged as I’m a sucker for all things solar. I’m actually blown away that I’m getting 20% battery return in high sun environments. I had over 17.1% (20 min) gain on an almost 2 hour ride with sun and lots of shade from trees. The battery lasts for a LONG time. I would like to be able to do more in the app to customize screens, etc. The touch screen works really well and there are buttons for all actions if needed because of gloves, etc. I had a bit of an issue with loading the USA maps on it at first and had to finagle things a bit. Typical Garmin issues. Overall, a great product and was the sweet spot for me with all the options available. What a great buy. I’m very happy.

I've had this thing for a year now and would definitely buy it again! Great bike computer, Battery last forever, great metrics--a little overkill for what I need but still nice to have. Climb pro is awesome.

I loved my Garmin 830 until it was stolen. However, that was motivation to try the Garmin 840--which has touch screen functionality AND button functions. That is a game changer. There are also more useful (not just more for more) features and is easier to read. The one thing that Garmin got wrong (relative to the 830 interface) is a "Profile" requires all kinds of shenanigans to rename/re-label, while the 830 was much easier to add multiple bikes with individual names.

How I love Garmin.Like Apple once you get one you will eventually want them all.Like a demanding wife who wants more jewelry Garmin has me buying the whole ecosystem. Don’t buy this unless you plan to buy a heart rate strap, a radar light, power pedals, a watch, an emergency radio, and a trainer.This thing works great most of the time and honestly can’t believe I biked for 2 years without it. Garmin knows how to make the battery last forever and it’s been easy to use.

I have been using Garmin computers forever. This generation is improved with the latest technology, only some of which I routinely use. But I like the volume of information it provides. I thought I would not like the touch screen, but I was wrong. I also have a Garmin 1040, but it is too large to fit well on some of my bikes. This one is easier to mount as it winds up sideways. Still easy to view.

This is a gadget lovers dream. There's so much you can fiddle with. Incredibly customizable with every feature you can think of. The ClimbPro feature stands out as my favorite. Battery life is excellent as well. Switching profiles between my mountain bike and road bike is very handy. I traded in my Wahho Roam for this and couldn't be happier. I can't think of a single thing to improve.

I bought the Edge 840 to replace my Edge 810, after the weather/water seal on the power button degraded. I've spent two weeks with Garmin Support trying to get the new unit operational. Support has no idea what they are doing. The 840 when first connected to Garmin Express needed to update its preinstalled maps of Europe and North America. Immediately upon trying to update an error message occurred. Support had me use Express as an administrator after removing and reinstalling Express. The 840 had 27.4GB of preinstalled files. Support was concerned as to what those files could be and had me upload zipped files of my Garmin folder. Support was sure that there were extraneous files preventing the updating of the maps. My return window with Amazon had closed. Support finally agreed to exchange my 840 for a new one. The new unit had the same 27.4GB of preinstalled files. The new 840 had the same error message and could not update its maps. Support wanted screen shots of my laptop's memory, insisting the problem was with my computer or my ISP. After some research I realized my 840 had insufficient memory to update the installed maps. Going to "manage maps" in Express, I removed Europe and could update North America. I then removed North America and could update Europe. So, ins short, Garmin has produced a unit with 32GB of storage that cannot accommodate both of its 2023 maps for Europe and North America. Not a big deal as I can change the maps before traveling.The big deal is that support didn't know the size of the files preinstalled in the 840 and could not recommend the easy fix that i found on my own. Several weeks of emails, uploading of Garmin files for Support to review and, of course, a non-working 840 while I waited for a resolution that Support could not provide.
