Oso Polar

Well, this source is a set of random checkboxes. Hey, they say that the only Edge that has date and time is Edge 1030 Plus, seriously?
BTW, may be important for someone - unlike what this screenshot says, Edge Explore is in fact not compatible with Garmin battery pack. However, I believe one can use a third party external battery by connecting it through the regular Micro USB port - it does work while charging.

IMHO it is mostly because they don't advertise it much to not damage the sales of more expensive models that are simply not necessary unless one needs the training features - and the wast majority of people don't need them. Explore has laps and eating/drinking remainders but this is pretty much the extent of it (and this is what may be enough for many). Plus, as someone already wrote here, many plan to get a power meter. For sure! May be next year! Or a year after next! But for sure, power meter is cool! Hey, this is the reason I got Edge 1030. This, and the fact it was a flash sale for $299 - for this price it is well worth it IMHO.
