Picked up an Edge Explore secondhand recently, it was £100 as-new off FB marketplace. The screen and maps are nice, but trying to enter destinations on the device itself is shite. Entering a post code just doesn't work at all, it expects you to type in a full street address. Really doesn't compare to a phone in terms of usability. Maybe newer models are better in this regard but it was kind of shocking how limited it is. Still nice to have a separate device tbh.

I used to be able to send a location from e.g. Google Maps on my phone to my Garmin car satnav. But infuriatingly not to Garmin Edge devices.

You can sync routes from RWGPS via Garmin on your phone to an Edge unit. I normally use wifi and have my Garmin able to connect to my phone's hotspot and sync, rather than piss about with bluetooth.
