Hey everyone, looking to get one of these head units. Any recommendations between the two? Is the 1030 worth it? Thanks for any feedback!

Whatever you get, put on a screen protector…I learned the hard way.

830, only done one ride since the update and had beeps for everything but interval countdowns :man_shrugging:

I run the 1030 on my Road and Gravel bikes. Main reason is I often use GPS routing and its nice having the larger screen size for this feature. For my mountain bike, I use the smaller 830. Both work really well but I still have chronic issues with both consistently connecting to my Pixel 4 XL pho…

I’d also note that I am slightly underwhelmed by my upgrade from 1000 to 830 - if you can find a good deal for a 1000 then you don’t miss out on much.

Has anyone seen any Garmin deals lately? They all seem to be at full price now. No deals to be found on ebay. I hesitated when REI just had the 20% off sale. :frowning:
