Review on 🚲 XOSS G+ Wireless Bike Computer - Bluetooth & Ant+ Sensor Support, Waterproof Bike Speedometer & Odometer with 3 Satellite Positioning for All Cycling Bikes (includes Free Black Cover) by Roy Niemeyer

Revainrating 2 out of 5

The cadence and speed sensor battery takes days or weeks to discharge.

I bought this because I don't want to drain my phone's battery with the GPS on. What do I like about it? The cycle computer battery is rechargeable. What don't I like about it? Everything else.1. The sensor's battery life is terrible. The 1st battery lasted about 1 month. I thought maybe it was an accident, the 2nd test lasted 2 weeks. That's about 3 hours of cycling per week.2. GPS blocks slowly. All other bike computers have GPS and are running, I'm still waiting for the GPS to snap. Lasts 5 minutes or more. Sometimes when you move, the GPS is not fixed at all.3. The sensor needs to remove the battery to switch between cadence and speed. The manual only says that the different colors represent speed and cadence BUT they never mention which color. You have to google this information. Not very easy to replace the battery.4. The support is terrible. I bought it online, and in technical support they asked me for firmware (version 0.12) and a check, and then they say that I bought a fake and refused to support it. Well if it's fake then do what Shimano does ie. Ask the buyer to send in the product with receipts, packaging, etc., then replace them with real ones, and let your legal team take action against the company selling "fake". ".

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product
