An upgrade to the Edge 705, the Edge 800 cramsa heck of a lot into a small, lightewight package. It's a fully-featured cycle computer that's about the size of a box of Swan Vesta matches and in it Garmin have managed to accommodate, Heart rate, Cadence, Power, a european base map and a bunch of training aids such as virtual partner racing, average pace racing and programmable workouts. I bought this base model (without Heart rate strap, cadence sensor or MicroSd card full of maps) because I was upgrading from an Edge 705 and already had all of the extra bits. So why did I upgrade from a 705?It's a good question...The biggest improvements that the 800 offers over the 705 are: - the screen - seems bigger and clearer - the user interface - the touch screen is MUCH better to use than the joystick on the 705, it's also more configurable in terms of fields and display options. It's also a lot less fussy about the power switch. - the bike mount - much easier to clip on/off the bike with a much more secure attachment and less to break - quicker GPS fix through hotfix records, which works well provided you're not miles from the last place you turned the unit off at - moderately smaller and lighter - quicker processing & route calculation - thermometer to record ambient temperatureIn use, it's a dream. The new mount works wonderfully, just one quarter turn and it locks secure into place. A quick press of the power button and it switches on. As soon as it detects movement it asks if you want to start the timer - it really is a helpful little gadget. Multiple bike profiles are supported (more than the 705) and they're easier to select. Multiple computer screens are configurable, more than the 705, and they're easier to set up as readouts are grouped by data type (e.g. speed, heart rate, power) rather than one big list.The Edge800 seems to be mostly about small but significant improvements. Aside from the touch screen and the new mount there's nothing revolutionary here, it's all tweaks and adjustments to what you found on the 705, and they all add up to making a tool that just works.So if you've never owned a Garmin Edge before and are in the market for a seriously powerful piece of kit that will help you improve your cycling performance and give you turn-by-turn directions on long rides, then I can heartily recommend it and would award it 5 stars. Likewise, if you're still riding with an Edge305 and are wondering if it's worth the upgrade, I'd say a vigorous "YES" and give it 5 stars (presuming you want street-level mapping, otherwise go for the Edge500).If you already own an Edge 705 and look longingly at the curves of the 800, wondering how to justify it's purchase, don't expect to be blown away by a vast array of new features. You will find it easier to use, but that's about it. It's still a fantastic piece of kit but it's not a compelling upgrade so for existing owners of a 705 I'd give it 3 - 4 stars. If you already own a 705, consider first whether the £s would be better spent elsewhere on your bike ;-)**** Update ****A quick note on the mapping capabilities... the Edge800 comes pre-loaded with a base map of europe, but this only covers the main roads. In the UK that means A-roads and Motorways, so it's not all that useful for a cyclist. The CityNavigator maps of western europe are very comprehensive and include thousands of points of interest that can come in handy when you're on a bike (like railway stations, petrol stations, pubs, restaurants etc), as well as supporting full sat-nav type post-code navigation. That said, there are cheaper, open-source mapping options available.*** Update 2 *** reduced rating from 4 to 3 starsAfter just over 1 year of ownership, during which time the Garmin has recorded over 5,000 miles in conditions ranging from blistering sunshine to -7C the weather finally got the better of my Edge800. Since a recent, extremely wet ride in the scottish highlands my Edge 800 still charges and records activities, howevere it is no longer possible to download records of my rides to a PC. It looks like water got into the USB port and either corroded the terminals or worse. As it's now out of warranty a part-funded replacement will be one hundred and twenty pounds... with no guarantee that it won't suffer the same problem in another year's time, some of the newer, cheaper alternatives on the market are beginning to look attractive.

I was not keen to spend this amount of money, especially as I still have a perfectly serviceable Forerunner 305 but I just couldn't resist the mapping function as I have moved to a new area of the country. It is awesome to plot a load of routes on Garmin Connect and just upload one and then follow it for 50 miles. You can adjust so many settings and display as much or little as you want as you ride. You can set it to auto scroll through a few different screens or just do it manually, which I prefer. I am happy to leave it on the map with speed and HR displayed at the top and occasionally flick onto another display with Average speed, Cadence, sunset time, ETA to destination etc. Very glad I spent the money and my Forerunner 305 is now an excellent backup to this and used for my Turbo Trainer.

After a long user of the Forerunner series, I decided to buy a specific bike computer and went for what I thought was the best. I have to say, the functionality of the Garmin Edge 800 was fantastic and after buying the navigation maps, which are a must if it is used correctly, was over the moon with it!Sadly, about two months ago a friend saw this unit on my bike and explained that he had just had his replaced due to a fault. Apparently, he went out in a typical UK summers day and it rained lightly. On his return, the unit had stopped working and he had it replaced. I should have known but today I too got caught out in a downpour and on my return found that the unit had stopped working. Although it will turn on, it will no longer interact with the computer and "Malfunctioning Device and USB Device Error" keeps coming up time and time again. The unit is only four months old and it cost nearly £300!!! The unit is 30m waterproof for 30 minutes! I was rained on for less than 20 minutes and it is now defective!?For all the good that the functionality of this unit is (and does have some suberb functionality), if you cannot use it on a typical UK day and the claim of waterproof to 30m is basically a joke, what use is it? I've contacted Amazon and I've contacted Garmin so hopefully someone will either replace the defective unit or give me back nearly £300 of hard earned money!!!
