According to our bike navigation expert
The Garmin Edge 820 bike navigation device helps you make wonderful bike tours. As performance-oriented biker, you can keep track of where your friends are biking with the GroupTrack function, and check your own performance. The bike navigation system displays things like your stress score, stamina, and oxygen intake. Of course the Garmin Edge also keeps track of how many kilometers you've completed, and thanks to the barometric altimeter, you know exactly how much you've climbed or descended. Connect a speed, cadence, and heart rate sensor for accurate information about your bike ride. The bike navigation has GPS and turn-by-turn navigation, so it's actually hard to get lost. Involved in an accident? The device automatically sends a notification with your location to a preset contact person.

Bought the Garmin Fenix 3 for triathlon which is absolutely amazing. This gave Garmin a good name and made the choice for bicycle navigation easier. While the Fenix - which already works well - gets updates almost every week, with the Edge you might get them once a month.
It is a beautiful device with a clear and bright display that automatically adjusts to the sunlight. The touchscreen works very poorly. Often touches are not detected or are only half detected, other times it stays on it. With the current weather, a layer of moisture quickly forms which only makes things worse. The second thing that doesn't help is that it's slow. If you think he hasn't registered your touch, he will already be busy so that you already press buttons in the next window.
Navigating with the Edge is excellent. About 200 meters before a turn you get a sound message, 50 meters two beeps. This means you don't have to constantly look at the screen. You can navigate to addresses with the Edge, and you can also specify a minimum distance, for example if you want to cycle at least 20 km, while the fastest route is 10 km.
Driving routes, on the other hand, is generally a disaster. At the beginning I took someone else's route from the internet, but because then the starting point doesn't start in front of your door, it doesn't work well. If you start halfway on the route (loading the route takes about 3-5 minutes), it will show the route, but you will not receive any notifications. When you come to the end, the route also stops and you have to start the route again.
I now create routes via the komoot.de website. Basecamp is a disaster to make routes with. Via Basecamp I check the route again and transfer the route to the Edge. The last time he had transferred half of the route, on the two routes before that he got stuck (remember your ride). The ride before that, he reported halfway through that the finish is in 0m (showed the next route). You can indicate with your route that you always want it visible. In the future I drive my routes on the map, without navigation.
I expected more from Garmin, it disappoints me. Hopefully they will come sooner with updates to improve the operation of the device.

Have used the Edge 820 for a ride from Mechelen to Middelburg (+100 km) and back. On the outward journey I used the route that I had created in BaseCamp (30 min work), but on the way the route suddenly went straight over fields (not even a path) so that I only found a route to cross a highway with the help of Google Maps. I don't understand when using BaseCamp (where you select bike) you get a route that just draws a line across the landscape that cannot be followed even on foot. What's the point of buying a cycling GPS that doesn't provide cycleable routes? On the return trip I had Edge 820 calculate a route (not via BaseCamp) that was always cycleable, only the system froze every now and then so that I regularly missed a turn, frustrating.
I don't dare to go out in unknown territory with only Edge 820, Google Maps is a necessary addition Disappointed but what are the alternatives?

Turn-by-turn navigation definitely doesn't work. Up to now about 10 different routes have been uploaded and driven and navigation is consistently lost after a few to sometimes 30-40 km. So you absolutely cannot rely on it. Software of this product (v8 June 2017) still very buggy and just seems unfinished. Just not possible for a product of 400 euros!
