#GARMIN USB ANT STICK PROBLEMS PLUS#
For this listing I’m using the Edge 520 Plus as the baseline (whereas if I used the Edge 520 on-board detailed maps weren’t included there). Note that there are other tidbits that I probably haven’t accounted for here – for example in certain menus or such where tiny things may have changed, but the below consolidates everything into one cohesive list. And there’s no more consolidated method to do that then the below video where I outline all the newness with quick demos of each:īut, if text is more your jam, then here’s what I’ve put together.

Let’s get right into the details of what’s new. Or, you can just make two trips to Starbucks, man or woman up, and get reading. Oh – and if you’re trying to decide whether to read the Edge 530 or Edge 830 review this morning, I can say that they are excruciatingly similar, with the only differences being found in the ‘Navigation’ section of the Edge 830 variant (since that’s the only place they differ).

If you find this review useful, hit up the links at the end of the post to support the site. I do not accept any money (or even permit even advertising) from any company I review. Note that this unit is a media loaner/test device and will very shortly go back to Garmin, like all other loaners. But let’s not get ahead of ourselves, I detail all this stuff below.Īs always, I aim to detail the good, bad, and ugly about a given device. Plus there’s a host of new performance metrics, alongside nutrition/hydration alerts that are generated automatically based on route/weather conditions. It’s got a huge slate of mountain bike specific features, including baking in the entire world’s worth of Trailforks maps/data right into the units. This new unit significantly increases performance in routing/navigation, while also adding in automated slicing and dicing of a route’s climbs to give you exact distance/elevation remaining for each climb. And in using both the Edge 530 and Edge 830 for the past month, I’d argue it might be the best bike computer Garmin’s ever made (keeping in mind a year ago I was pretty firm in not recommending the Edge 520 Plus due to performance issues). Whereas the new Edge 530 is a substantial bump in not just performance, but also features. While Garmin announced the Edge 520 Plus almost exactly one year ago today, it was effectively just a minor refresh of the Edge 520 adding in mapping capability.

And more importantly, they refresh Garmin’s most popular unit – the Edge 520. These products effectively complete Garmin’s x30 lineup of higher-end cycling units, offering four distinct incrementing price points: Edge 130, Edge 530, Edge 830, and Edge 1030. Today Garmin announced three new products, the Edge 530 (this review), the Edge 830 (that review), and new dual ANT+/Bluetooth Smart Speed and Cadence sensors (that review coming up momentarily).
