It's a faster CPU. The navigation software stuff works better. It has direction arrows (with the beta) showing route direction. It has a compass (which isn't crucial but still useful).

The temperature…

They just released a new beta firmware for the 1030+.

The 1030+ is still new and it's significantly different (a faster CPU and a compass).

You were worried about missing-out on the next model and are now considering an older model?

It depends on how you will use it.

Absolutely!
I had (and have still) the 1030 and I wasn't happy about the navigation when you deviate from the route. It always wanted me to go back from where I deviated from the route.
I heard about the 1030+ that it does a better job at this (smarter).
So, I bought the 1030+.....and what a difference.
Way faster in calculating routes (also in calculating 3 suggested cources). I am happy with the 1030+ where I was unhappy with the 1030.
But then again, this is very personal.

Well. I understood that I shouldn't wait for now. Now try to understand if I have to pay additional money for 1030+ if I need a bigger battery capacity.

1030 is much faster, more than 2 days, I shoot a video to show you, this is the point I am most dissatisfied with 1030+, but I don't know if it is the same in other places.

As a result, 1030 satellite positioning is faster
