Garmin Edge 1030 Plus – new and noteworthy<\/h2>\n

The Edge 1030 Plus is a revised version of the current flagship model Edge 1030. Compared side by side you won’t find many differences except for the color, which is black in black. The Edge 1030 Plus is a gram more in weight but that shouldn’t matter anyone. Both devices look like identical twins.<\/p>\n

With no obvious changes, the transflective color display remains the same. The 3.5″ touch screen depicts information running at 282 x 470 pixels resolution.<\/p>\n

If you compare the Standard and Plus products improvements and new functions usually are of manageable amount. This applies to the Edge 1030 Plus as well. The Edge 1030 Plus is a revised model with slightly improved hardware and a couple of new functions. <\/p>\n

It is having all features that the Edge 1030 has to offer. In addition there are some features that have already been seen on the Edge 830 and Edge 530 Plus but weren’t added to the Edge 1030 by firmware updates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\t\n\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t
