Who already has the E1050 and what are the impressions?

Sarebbe molto utile sapere se sono state migliorate le dimensioni della traccia e se il colore risulta più vivo, non smorto come nel 1040.

Is there also a widget and a music control data field in the new E1050?

I have just received mine. Following observations. 1. The screen is where the magic happens. It is just so much clearer and brighter. 2. The response time of the screen is leaps ahead so the processor must be a lot better. 3. The bell is cool. The voice commands are nice. If any of those are important to you then the upgrade is worth it. For the rest all the other features are now available on the 1040 beta software.

Could also try shining a light on the display just to see if it dimmed out. GPLama ran into this.

However, it sounds dead.

Can someone post a screenshot of the map screen showing the rider position symbol and virtual partner, there was a post in 1040 saying the user position was as big, maybe bigger than VP symbol which is something I would very much like as my mature eyesight has trouble actually seeing my position these days. If actually bigger hopefully it will come to 1040 too., thanks

The UI being snappier than the Edge 1040 is good news but I’m even more interested to know if handling the map (panning, zooming) is also a better experience. I couldn’t find any review that comments on this aspect specifically.

Cheers!

I took a picture of 1050 from internet and compared it to a screenshot of my 1040. It seems indeed, that the vehicle cursor is bigger now!

Thanks, I will keep hoping, re "pictures" on or sourced from Garmin , many for x40 have been  "fake" / mockups  / marketing and not reflecting what the actual software is like, but as I said, hoping and hoping it comes to 1040

eg, the route chevrons are not that small?
