With my IGPS unit sometimes I was unable to sync my activities because the system was off, or bugs happening in routes for example. But the units standalone have a great quality and battery life in general.

I have sort of 'committed' to Garmin through years of using their products and while I know it is possible to mix and match between different brands I just find it so simple and easy when everything works across e.g. watch, chest HRM, head unit, and mobile phone app/PC app, without having to manually import or export anything at all. That said, if you are on a tight budget there is a lot to be gained by going down the mix and match route but it could include a fair few headaches and some loss of compatible data across several different platforms.

Thank you for the review and your continued excellent work in this space...we are all better for your efforts! I have been a Garmin user forever and have been on the 1030 Plus for many years. I cannot find any reason why I would want to leave Garmin and I cannot find a reason to upgrade my 1030 Plus as it does everything I need very well and the newer generation does not have any 'must have' features for me. What I really want is for Strava to have the feature sets that are available in Garmin Connect and to a lesser degree Training Peaks. I have evolved to using Strava as my primary tracking mechanism, mostly for the convenience, however, Stava has always been lacking in items such as calendaring, better goals/tracking, etc. Strava has made some progress in those areas, however, it has been far too slow.

@Garyh61Ай бұрын
The intel that I have close to retailing is the Karoo 3 getting some negativity, despite its pretty face, and battery life is in the crosshairs. The rumblings are also because SRAM is boxing the Karoo 3 with SRAM-equipped bikes, which is not always the purchaser's desire (and the Karoo 3 would not be given away free, so the price is buried in the bumpf there somewhere!). The HR and Zones are shown on the iGS800 screen and/or app as graphics (rings, graphs, curves or full figure data fields. Gears on the iGS800 are shown as e.g. numerically as 2/12 (rear, 12 speed*) or 1/2 ... 2/2 (for front). I haven't looked for the iconographic display option that enables a graphic of the chainring in use and the freewheel cog in use (side by side); this was an interesting option on the iGS630S (but not on the iGS630 that I have). In short, there are a hell of a lot of options to play with once the iGS800 is unboxed and mounted up. __________________________________________________ * a forthcoming update to the iGS800 will include a 13th cog to mesh with SRAM's newly released 13-speed freewheel)

I cycled 15,000 km with an IGPSPORT model IGS 620 cycling computer. But in the future I will buy another brand. Here's why. - There is no audio signal if the target power of your workout changes, so you have to continuously look at the cycling computer, which is very dangerous in traffic. - It takes 3 attempts each time to connect my cycling computer to my phone. - If I load a TrainingPeaks workout via my phone to the cycling computer, six digits will be placed in front of the file name, which will make the file name too long and will not load later. The same applies to GPX routes that I create with the IGPSPORT website.

This doesn't appear to be available yet in the US and once it is it'll probably be way more expensive than the 630 so I doubt that I've missed anything by not waiting. However it might drive the prices of older units down.

There’s a number of areas that need improvement on the 800. The maps are effectively unusable due to the contrast problems. The speaker is located under the mount. It doesn’t record any gearing information. The power data is also a little off due to some recording problems. It’s a good attempt. It’s still a few step below the current offerings from Garmin, Wahoo, Hammerhead.

I'm sure there are a swag of updates coming in the near-term. What do you mean, "it doesn't record any gearing information" ? The current map downloads for Australian States should improve on the contrast. I have heard of that power meter anomaly before. On SRAM, the power meter must be zeroed, and a best-option is to select Magic Zero where calibration is performed ad hoc. I doubt a scientific peer-reviewed deep dive is needed for these things; short of being wired up and tied down in a test lab like a lab rat...

Hey Shane, I’m really looking forward to your in-depth review of this unit when you’re ready. I’ve been with Garmin since the 705’s with a short stint with the original Element and Bolt units. Currently on the 1030 plus for road and gravel and 830 for MTB (The 1000 series lever like shape doesn’t play nice with the type of MTB riding I like… ) . My issue with the 800 series is the screen size just isn’t quite sufficient for the tightly packed “ball of yarn “ type trail systems found in my area. This unit looks promising. Side note, you seem happy with the Garmin connect app. Perhaps it’s user error on my part; but …. Unless I update the ride to Connect via the mobile app, it won’t ever show in the mobile app. In other words, if at the end of the ride if the unit (1030 or 830) connects to WiFi and uploads the ride, Connect web will show the ride, but the mobile app will never reflect that it happened at all. All of my riding buddies have the exact same experience; so much so that they stopped using the mobile app all together. Likewise, if I ride Zwift, it updates Connect (web) but not Mobile. If this is NOT user error (and I hope it is) seems like a real head scratcher. Any thoughts?

I had a IGS610 which was absolutely TERRIBLE. I lost 20% of my rides, it crashed without saving, app was buggy. terrible hardware and even worse software. but this looks legit and might even be tempted to give this brand a try again even though I absolutely HATED the 610 back in 2018. lets see what hammerhead releases in the next couple of weeks...the Karoo 2 certainly needs an update.

I would be interested in a different device if i could still upload to garmin connect. I have had a garmin watch for a while now and connect has become my primary fitness analyzer. I have stopped paying for strava too.

Not directly. This is a Garmin only service. You’d need to look at having a third party tool do that upload/sync (and be sure Garmin don’t ban it). For years Garmin Connect would not accept FIT files from Wahoo units regardless of how they were uploaded to it.

When can we expect the full review?
@telkmx3 ай бұрын
Would you recommand it or should i wait for the review ?
@arminmaier65804 ай бұрын
Does the device fit to a Garmin or Wahoo computer holder with the mounting puck?
@gplama4 ай бұрын
Garmin 1/4 mount compatible.

These cycling computers are crazy expensive. You can buy a Pixal 6 and stick it on your handle bars and have more connectivity...

Hello, does it recognize a climb (distance, elevation percentage, etc.) without needing to enter a route? Thanks
@franciscojavierlopezmoya45253 ай бұрын
no, pregunté a IGSPORT y me dijeron que solo cuando se está siguiendo una ruta y le metes un gpx con datos de desnivel, es posible que en próximas actualizaciones eso cambie y sea de forma predictiva

That mount looks really very similar to a Garmin mount. Does it fit?
@gplama4 ай бұрын
Yep. It's compatible with all Garmin 1/4 turn mounts.

What is screen visibility in compare with Stages Dash 200 (if you sill use it 😊)?
@gplama4 ай бұрын
The Dash units are so damn bright! That’s about all I have to say about them. I stopped using them when I noted the GPS tracking was extremely wonky here in AU and their maps were years out of date (this was the Stages and Giant branded units). With minimal updates in years from Stages I think those devices are effectively end of life.

One of my biggest issues with my Garmin is the ginormous screen borders... seems unnecessary in 2024 when even cheap cell phones can have nearly borderless designs.

any idea to sync data from iGS800 to Garmin Connect?
@gplama3 ай бұрын
Not possible. You’ll need to do it manually or with a third party sync app.

screen display looks really washed out - they need to do something about the contrast of the unit.
@acidrums44 ай бұрын
Maybe the screen protector isn't helping either

Where can I download maps for this model ? I can only see files for the older models on their website
@gplama2 ай бұрын
I have no idea sorry. Last I checked they didn’t even have this model listed anywhere on their website.
@tommyzee5892 ай бұрын
Connected it to my PC and it looks like maps are preloaded.
