Leading The Way. Whether you're on the road, in the mountains or around the city, Garmin's touch screen Edge 800 puts the most important information of your ride at your fingertips.

The intuitive 2.6" touch screen interface can be used with gloved fingers, plus it has new mapping options such as Garmin's BaseCamp route planning and BirdsEye Satellite Imagery make it perfect for training, touring and riding. Hotfix GPS technology speeds up initial connection time and can predict your position when signal is lost.

Industry Reviews

If you’ve been shy of getting into GPS, this new 800 will convert you. Touchscreen and OS maps make it our top choice - Review by Bikeradar - Feb 2011

With a touch screen display and improved interface, the Edge 800 is an excellent successor to Garmin’s popular Edge 705 GPS bike computer. It’s easier to use and offers significant new features over the 705 including compatibility with a wider range of maps (including Ordnance Survey in the UK), temperature, and improved calorie counting.

Overall, the Edge 800 is the best bike-specific GPS unit we’ve used. It had us hooked on using it every ride. It’s robust, with logical menus, and its touch screen is both easy and fun to use. The screen didn’t scratch despite lots of prodding with muddy fingers, and it’s waterproof. It supplies all the data we knew we wanted, and some we didn't, but you never feel bogged down in info. The battery life has been addressed and we can pack in the hours without it taking a nap before the end of the ride; a frustration we had before.

GPS-enabled bike computer with masses of navigation and performance-measuring capability – the best device of its kind- 4.5 / 5 stars - Review by Road.cc - January 2011

Garmin’s new Edge 800 GPS-enabled bike computer comes packed to the rafters with the features of the existing Edge 500 and 705 models, but with a bigger display than either, touch screen operation, and faster satellite location. It’s a fantastic bit of kit.

"...Should you buy the Edge 800? If you’re after an accurate navigational tool, it’s Garmin’s slickest, most intuitive offering yet – the potential here is huge. And if you want a generous amount of web-supported performance information too, you’re onto a winner. "
