Is there much scope to change the plan halfway through the day... like randomly deciding to head somewhere completely different instead, or making a detour to check things out en route? (sorry if these are stupid questions btw!)
there is but on device routing on garmin devices is abyssmal and that is being kind.
Detours cannot be done with any ease. You just have to set a new destination, using one of the device options, such as address, map point, POI (point of interest)

I agree about phone and powerbank not being the most elegant solution. I guess that's really the crux of why I'd prefer a dedicated device.
Presuming with the 530 you upload the route before you leave and then just follow it TBT?
