According to our bike navigation expert
Bike anywhere effortlessly with the Wahoo ELEMNT. The wireless bike navigation supports GPS, which makes going from A to B a cakewalk. The device simply connects to sensors, such as a heart rate sensor and cadence sensor. See different training data at a glance, thanks to the LED lights, and you won't need your mobile phone. During your ride, all your data are stored and automatically sent to the accompanying app. Here, you can monitor all your prestations. Receive incoming calls or messages as usual, via the bike navigation. Follow your biking buddies simply on the screen, via the Live tracking system. Riding on unknown terrain? The ELEMNT features turn-by-turn navigation, which displays the route on the screen, and makes discovering new tours easy.
The ELEMNT comes with maps of nearly every country on earth. Download your route, and you're ready to go.

Wahoo's first real bike computer is an instant hit. The device looks beautiful and is very solidly built. It does not have a color screen, which has the advantage that the screen is readable in any circumstance. The maps are also easy to read. The different screens can be changed very quickly and easily with the companion app on your smartphone. On the side and top are LEDs that can be set for speed, heart rate, notifications (text/phone) or navigation. Synchronization is fast via WiFi, or via the app.
There are still some bugs or missing features (eg turn by turn navigation, Strava live segments), but these will be solved with updates in the coming weeks.

I used to be a fan of Garmin but ever since they made Garmin Connect mandatory I started to get frustrated. After a long search and consideration, I changed to Wahoo Elemnt and was extremely satisfied.
Be sure to link with Strava (or other service) to make maximum use of the functionalities.
Handy that I now know who is calling me while driving. That way I know if it's that important that I stop driving to call back.

I was initially somewhat skeptical about product (price / features), but I am convinced.
Navigating is really great! I tested it in Germany in unfamiliar territory and I never made a mistake. Even the most difficult gravel paths are on the map. The unfortunate thing is that when you make a wrong turn, Wahoo doesn't steer you in the right direction like Tom Tom. However, you immediately notice that you are wrong (flashing red LEDs) and you can navigate back fine yourself.
Uploading routes may be better, but I do believe that this will be resolved by Wahoo in due course. Unfortunately I can't get GPX routes from GPSies.com on the Wahoo, but if you copy the routes via Ridewithgps it works fine.
The great thing is that you don't buy an out-of-the-box item and that's it. The Elementt gets better and better through software updates. An example is the turn-by-turn navigation. It was not available 2 weeks before my purchase. Now with a software update.
I only have a cadence sensor that I have not yet managed to add to the Wahoo.
And sometimes it doesn't work well to add driven routes to Strava.
Furthermore, the Element is really solid. No touchscreen, but you can easily navigate through the menu via sturdy rubber buttons.
Connecting with your iPhone is also a piece of cake via scanning the QR code. And finished!
All in all very satisfied!
