I also just ordered one of these last week. I will try mine with a Moto G.

I like having both phone and computer. If my compute was more reliable I would not worry about the phone as much. But as a scientist it is nice to have the data from the phone (I currently just use strava). My computer needs some finessing to keep working; it is wired so cable fiddling, contact moistening, re-positioning computer. It also tends to stop working if I go under 15 km/h for too long (not frequent, but annoying).

Otherwise I like it for the overall mileage and immediate updates, since my phone lives in my pannier for the time being.

Edit: I did not order the same bag as [MENTION=379963]Dryvlyne[/MENTION], where I was ordering from it was out of stock and too long on back order.

I got this one: http://www.lightinthebox.com/roswhee...b_from=sysmail

I would have ordered both for comparative sake since for a few dollars more it was worth it. I would still like to see dryvlyne's bag at work.

and yours [MENTION=379016]ChiroVette[/MENTION]
