1. The battery life is pretty poor and ireqrues replacement with a non standard CR2450 coin battery.
2. Does not maintain signal 100% of time and has odd quirks with disconnecting.
3. Buttons are not always responsive from a hardware standpoint.
4. ANT+ bridge does not work on android, which is okay because my Sony Z1 Compact supports any natively.
5. Limited Android support, no strava app which admittedly the strava app lacks compared to its iOS counterpart. The wahoo fitness app is great, but does not support auto-pause of all things which can be anoying the city.

I like the promise but a Garmin is just a better option, it's too bad the new compact Edge 25 does not support barometric altitude.
Thanks for your input, i was going to order it till i read your post. I'll stay clear of it. Maybe a Garmin Edge 520.
