Apples and oranges. If I want to run an app, including ride tracking, I start it up on my phone, secure in my pocket. The cheap bike computer is more accurate, easier to use and see, and never requires charging, updates or any other maintenance beyond replacing the battery every 10-15000 miles. That's the "pro's and con's" in a nutshell.
