   Really Nice Cycling Computer – Rivals Bigger Brands
   I waited to write a review of this product for until I really had the chance to give it a thorough amount of testing over the last four months. I must say that I am thoroughly impressed. I purchased this unit as a bundle with a rigid mount and rubber case.The unit ships with a standard handlebar mount, which uses rubber straps to hold the mount to the handlebars. I used that mount a few times, and it was very sturdy and capable. I had no issues with it during either road or trail riding. However, I prefer the rigid mount, as it places the unit in a more natural position for the eyes. The rigid mount is super stable and I have ordered a second one for my other bike.The unit itself was easy to set up. I downloaded the app on my phone and read the instruction booklet. I also watched a few videos online. Some of the instructions are not the best, but it is pretty easy to figure out how to customize screens with the information you want to see. For example, on my map screen, I have the time, the compass, my speed, and the map. On the grid screen, I have temperature, road grade, total ascent / descent, total distance and elapsed time. There are many screens available for customization, and for most, the default selections will be fine.The display is very easy to see in even the brightest of sunlight. The buttons are easy to feel for with gloves on, and are easily activated. The letters and numbers are large enough to read and are very crisp. The display is not overly busy and can be glanced at quickly to get exactly the information you want at the moment.I appreciate many things about this device:1. A direct link to Strava – I have found starting Strava first, then the IGPSport phone app, then powering on the device is a reliable order for immediate ride syncing after the ride is complete. Give the device a minute or two to sync and then you’ll get a message from Strava that your ride is ready to view.2. Text message and phone call display – When I receive a text message, I can read about the first 40-60 characters right on the unit, with an audible sound and display at the bottom of the screen. Phone calls are also indicated audibly and visually on the device, so I know if it’s important to pull over and pick it up or reply to the text message.3. Map zooming – When approaching a turn, the map will auto zoom, but you can use buttons on the device for manual zooming4. Downloading routes from Ride With GPS – I do a lot of rides for charities, where they post the route on Ride with GPS. Download the .FIT file and send it to the device, and you get turn-by-turn directions. You can customize how far before each turn you will be notified. It has overall worked very well.5. Creating custom routes – For custom trips, I can create the route in advance on my computer or phone using the app and then send it to my device.6. Off Route Indications – When off route (either by accident or on purpose), the unit will audibly indicate you are off-route and then provide red arrows telling you the direction back to the route. the distance to the finish continues to update, which is nice.7. Trails on the map – I rode some great trail systems in Arizona and Michigan and all of the trails are on the map!8. Long battery Life – I have ridden over 9 hours at a time on my bike and the battery was still at about 40%. Charging is fast as well.I just can’t say enough good things about this unit. It really rivals other much more significant brands with its capabilities. I would very highly recommend it!

   I’ve switched from Garmin to iGPSport
   I’m very impressed with the quality and cost of iGPSPORT bike computers. I have used Garmin for many years, but have switched to iGPSPORT. This is may third iGPSPORT bike computer. I use all of them on road bikes. These are the reasons I prefer iGPSPORT.The quality of the GNSS chip set is superior to that in the Garmin bike computers I’ve used. I spent 37 years as a GPS engineer and appreciate the technical challenges in processing satellite signals. Being able to use the signals from all of the major GNSS systems should increase accuracy and reliability of navigation. Also it is clear that the signal processing is performed with much lower power consumption than other chip sets, resulting in longer battery life between charges and probably longer life for the bike computer.The user interface is intuitive and easy to customize. I don’t mind spending some time integrating sensors and configuring the device, but when I ride I want to just turn the thing on and go, with all of the information I want displayed. I want time of day, elapsed time, distance, speed, cadence, heart rate, elevation, total ascent and slope displayed and readable all of the time. And I want mapping if I get lost or I’m riding in a new area. The iGS630 provides all of this.The compatibility with existing sensors and Garmin products is excellent. Speed, cadence and heart rate using my Garmin sensors is no problem. And I can use my same computer bike mount. No hassles.The iGPSPORT app is tightly integrated with their bike computers. It facilitates sensor integration and provides nice graphical displays of all of the data I want to see after the ride.I like that the charging is done with a USB-C port. I already have additional charging cables for other devices. And this standard will be around for a long time.The technical support is excellent. I can email a question and get a response back the next day. Like most all technology these days the written documentation provided does not address all questions that arise. To have an actual human being available willing and able to help is an amazing luxury these days.The hardware is solid, similar to the Garmin. It looks difficult to break and I doubt it will wear out.Cost is less than half of what I’ve payed for functionally similar Garmin bike computers.The company is smart, aggressive and clearly in it for the long haul. They learn quickly and adapt to user’s needs with new designs and firmware upgrades. Their software seems solid with few glitches. It must be well tested.I’m struggling to think of anything negative about the iGS630 or the other iGPSPORT bike computers I own. But I’ll mention a few minor complaints. They seem to get speed only from the wheel sensor instead of using GPS as a backup. But this should rarely be a problem. And they do use GPS to calibrate the wheel circumference. More comprehensive documentation would be nice including the map coverage included with the device and what is available for download. But it seems to include everywhere I need.In summary – I’m impressed. I think I’ll go for a bike ride.

   Lo compré por 165€ en septiembre de 2023. Precio fantástico para un ordenador de bici genial. Estoy muy contento con él. Aunque no tiene recálculo de rutas, para mí es suficiente ayuda para seguir rutas desconocidas. Es muy personalizable, de hecho esa fue una de las principales razones para comprarlo.El servicio técnico es muy bueno y rápido. No es que se me haya estropeado nunca, es que, al principio, las mediciones de temperatura y a veces la de distancia no eran correctas. Con hacer una comunicación a través de la misma app de IGPSport, en un par de días estaba corregido el error.

   Finally ordered the iGS 630 on Amazon France for € 165 and it was delivered the next day. Still have the BSC 100 which is very good. The 620 did not convince.The 2.8″ screen real estate is much better than the rather tiny 620 screen. Screen is bright, unlike the 620. GPS signal pickup is almost instantly. Screen resolution good. After 502 km, battery still at 66%. Lots of pages for different data display. Totally happy with the thingy.Oh, email customer service with IGPSPORT is excellent. One issue though, so far only the company’s maps show. They are a little basic but do the job. I can’t get any other XXX.map working.
