    Garmin Edge 820, GPS Cycling/Bike Computer for Performance and Racing

    • I deeply regret my purchase of the 820.Here's the problem: the touchscreen is overly sensitive and a drop of sweat is registered as an input -- I've found when riding it will suddenly go into the settings menu, change screen settings, stop navigation or cancel recording a ride just because I sweated on the screen while riding!Worse, the 820 is utterly UNUSABLE in the rain because it registers every rain drop that hits it as an input
    • Add buttons and lose the buggy touchscreen, and improve the GPS software
    • Since day 1 the touchscreen was very unreliable, would be great to have an ENTER button but instead you have to press the options in the screen so many times until it recognizes it
    • The touchscreen and easy to understand menu driven display make it easy to use
    • the touchscreen works well
    • The touchscreen has some bad
    • Touchscreen is a bad Joke
    • The previous Edge 810 had a very usable touchscreen, but the 820 either won't respond or there is a 1-2 second delay.
    • Touchscreen works just fine
    • Add buttons and lose the buggy touchscreen, and improve the GPS software

    • I’m toying with returning the Wahoo Bolt (EDIT: I did) and buying the more expensive Edge Explore 1000 (gulp), in the hope that it combines the best of my old 800 (usable touchscreen, good routing, good CPU for fast redraws and a usable map page) with the Bluetooth/integration features of the 820 (Varia radar, incident detection, etc.)
    • I upgraded from the 520, and I LOVE the touchscreen, it makes using it so much easier, even with gloves on.
    • I bought this device on 10/10/16 and was considering returning it, as it was quite buggy, most notably with the extremely sensitive(to the point of unusable) touchscreen.
    • There are some issues when using it with touchscreen-supporting gloves, but that's fine
    • The touchscreen works flawlessly
