It will show you the way.
The large screen size allows for more data fields or a larger map area to be displayed, and the touch screen is handy for certain operations. In addition, it has an all-day battery life and usb-c charging. and I've found the on-device location search to be pretty handy.
It's the least expensive of all the Garmin Edge computers released over the last year, but the value is a little deceptive. Due to its larger size, I was unable to use it with the included mount. Instead, I had to purchase a separate out-front mount, which is included with the 540, 840, and 1040. The Explore 2 lacks the training features of the other Edge units, and will not display structured workouts or pacing during a ride. However, all the data is recorded and can be analyzed with Garmin Connect. Overall, the Edge Explore 2 is a great device for navigation and ride tracking, but not as effective for training or racing.

Excellent general purpose bike computer
I haven't had a bike computer before but I really like the detailed stats for ascent. The Connect Garmin app provides even more detail on the ride. I haven't used the navigation yet.

Much better than its predecessor
Twice the speed, features, battery life and stability of the first generation Explore. This device seems to report on everything salient and is well beyond basic. It won't report on things like your friend's current metabolic rate while they are riding in different continent, for example (I made that up). If you do have that first generation give it to someone you really don't like then trade up to this one. Do read the manual twice if pairing with the Garmin RTLxxx rear light/radar thingy.

Worth it
Great computer, super easy to use. My GARMIN watch crapped out on me and I needed a replacement. This was perfect and way less than a watch.

Lots to like!
Got this on super sale at the end of 2022. Only 200 miles on it so I'm still learning all of the different tools. Big upgrade from 520 plus. Love being able to track wind while on my ride as well as having it synced with rear light for safety. Looking forward to some longer rides as the weather warms back up so I can use the course feature and climb pro.
