Please did anybody used it as bike computer, looks like a perfect thing
1. Price dropped to <120$
2. epaper screen perfectly readable under the sun and with 18 hours in map mode (confirmation of this claim is what I mostly want to find)
3. Navigation on epaper looks quite nice https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dSmV1-Qv9u0
4. Support for ANT+ announced but seems missing in actual specifications

Finally I've got it
ANT+ is present!
My CooSpo connected in Strava, Edomondo and Wahoo with no problem through ANT
18 hours in map mode also seems real!

Thanks for the heads up on this - I'd not heard of it. £185 in the UK is the cheapest I can see it on Amazon, and too little feedback as yet. That said, it’s a lot cheaper than the higher end Garmins and the e-paper screen looks very appealing for cycling. I'll be watching this with interest.

it is about £90-110 now if order from China
numerous sellers in aliexpress or ebay

If you look through the sellers on Aliexpress, you'll find a number shipping from within the EU for ~£100-110

I ran a more accurate battery test:
4 hours trip with Wahoo turned on connected to breast HR sensor (ANT+) and with navigation program (Navitel) constantly displayed on epaper screen; no wifi, no mobile internet, no bluetooth
and in this mode it depleted battery by 28% (from 92 to 64) - close to claimed 18 hours of battery life in navigation mode

To be true, battery life in everyday use is very far from excellent. I charge it now every other day, while my previous meizu note2 lasted on average about a week. Apparently I incline not to use yotaphone as a phone, just dedicated velocomputer
