Here’s a super quick post, for a super quick video, to demonstrate something that’s been frequently requested: Using the Edge 840 touchscreen with rain/water on the screen, as well as how it works with gloves.
I had meant to include this footage in my Edge 840 in-depth review video, but totally forgot. Either way, it’s here now in a very straight-forward video linked above.
If you’re looking for Edge 1040 footage of the same thing, but in an outright thunderstorm, you can find that down below from last summer. I had hoped to have some harder Florida-style rain for the Edge 840 video, but the only time that happened recently was at night – so the video wouldn’t have come out very well.
With that – thanks for reading, or watching, as it may be!
