To start with the positive. You can operate the Mio without a manual! It's so logical that you don't need it. At most the instruction for quick startup. And not too expensive. And beautiful cards.
But that battery. Drama. A number of trips of 80 km in 3.5 hours on the racing bike. And then I only have 20% to 30% battery left. That is roughly 20% battery consumption per hour. Then you will be without power after roughly 5 to 6 hours.
What if I go over 100 km? Too late to return, so I'm going to put a power bank under the handlebar mount.
In short. If you have a racing bike, don't! Do you have a holiday bike, only do it if you have a hub dynamo with USB connection or a power bank.

First impression was good: device looks neat and solid. The screen is also bright and clear. Pairing the heart rate belt was automatic. However, pairing the associated speed and cadence sensor will not. There was no way the device found it. Solutions on the internet: resetting the device, removing the battery from the sensors, inserting the battery the wrong way round in the sensor, etc. did not help. The second problem was connecting the device to the laptop because of. any updates or downloading maps and routes. The laptop (Windows 10) immediately gave an error message and a malfunction that the USB device was not recognized. Also here in various forums encountered the problem several times and also the frustration of many owners that there was no solution. I didn't come across much further than looking for an old(er) PC to update your MIO. All in all: did not meet my expectation and returned and started looking for a Garmin.

This bike computer is easy to use.
Only the battery life is very disappointing. Using heart rate monitor and cadence sensor, maximum usage is about 6 or 7 hours (depending on how cold it is).
This makes it unsuitable for longer trips.
Reliability is also low. The cadence sensor sometimes works, but more often it doesn't. Even after installing new batteries and reinstalling everything, it remains unreliable. My own cadence sensor is not recognized, but everyone around me is. And they all have Garmin.
If you use it for cycling holidays with a bicycle with a dynamo USB charger, then this one is fine.
