Generally pretty poor reviews of that unit from what I can see, especially battery life.

I don't have a bike computer of any description, but had been contemplating buying one, and the 820 had the functions I wanted (namely turn by turn), along with, from the previous post, a fairly attractive price point.

Would you have any recommendations, for similar money and features, but perhaps better battery life

If you take some conservative settings the battery is fine. I have one and it's fine for spins less than 6 hours
. If you need more than that there are other options. Don't discount this unless you explicitly need more battery. Also I have seen it for 160 previously on Amazon.

I’m in the same boat and ultimately it comes down to your needs, for example color screen or not? Mapping? (Which seems to be poor in a lot of units).

The wahoo element bolt is popular, Bryton have been recommended to me in the past, and at the higher end the Sigma Rox 12.0 sport is a highly recommended bike computer, and one which I may well go for in the long run.
