Bryton Rider S800.
Color touchscreen with voice destination search, offline maps, and turn-by-turn navigation delivering 80% of the flagship experience at 50% of the cost.
The Verdict.
Gavler Meta-Score
“The Rider S800 packs a big, bright touchscreen, voice search, and a claimed 36-hour battery into a package costing roughly half a flagship Garmin. The catch is software: the Bryton Active app is clumsy and slow to sync. This is the pick for riders who want hardware value and can tolerate a rough app — not those chasing Garmin-grade polish.”
The Gavler Verdict
Precision Engineering
Voice Search
Tap the mic and speak a destination — Google-powered search (needs a phone connection) that reviewers found surprisingly accurate on place names.
3.4" Color Touchscreen
Among the largest displays in the class (272x451) using a power-efficient Memory-in-Pixel panel that stays readable in sunlight.
36-Hour Claimed Battery
The MIP display sips power — Cycling Weekly found it 'never loses power,' charging roughly once a week even with frequent riding.
Technical Specifications
The Scoreboard
Voice search is a unique and genuinely useful feature. Large display and competitive pricing drive strong community ratings. Software polish lags behind category leaders.

Global Critique
“The hardware is so good — the screen is fantastic, fast, responsive and bright, and the 36-hour battery life means you only need to charge it once a week. But sadly the device is let down by the worst mobile app I've ever seen.”
“Due to the huge screen, the maps functionality on the head unit is quite good — it's clear what kind of roads are which and the turn-by-turn navigation is great, with auto-rerouting and route retracing.”
“It's this or a Garmin, and I've made my choice — the battery and big touchscreen make a genuine case against the big two.”
