First short ride with 1000:
Pros
It didn't crash
You don't need to set turn by turn for every course individually (once I found it)
Cons
It's heavy and long so rotates on my TT mount.
It's slow calculating and recalculating, actually seems slower than 800 but maybe that's because I used the recalculate on route option?
When it's calculating or telling you you're off course it doesn't redraw the screen, so it looks like you're still on the course - cue extra mile detour to get to next RAB for a uturn.
The screen didn't respond well to my gloves - lucky they're full of holes so finger tip works better.
Probably more but I'll get used to it I guess.
Oh battery life down to 60% after a couple of hours. I'm going to disable Glonass to see if it's any better. Nothing else like WiFi or Bluetooth is on.
