Copy and paste the link in a new browser window usually works.
Magene C606.
Looks promising

Tried the link copy paste, same result but for a change search function on Aliexpress worked. Lucky day, thanks for the model number!

I don't know why people put the AliExpress links in a wrong way, it is not that difficult !

Just use the magene site for (most of) their products.

The magene bike computer (606?) has 4G storage, wonder if it's enough?

Yes that's plenty. For reference all of australia is 3GB. The largest gpx file I have is 3mb. Workout files are mere kilobytes.
Garmin advertising 64gb storage on newer models or whatever is extremely gimmicky. Unless you somehow need to download all the continents and store movies 4GB is fine

You have the EXACT same link as me, I didn't fuck up cleaning the link from tags. No need to be condescending, the issue is not my link but probably in how the forum handles redirections

[TidyDinosaur]

The original link worked fine for me...

[Chiyou]

For me, aliexpress.com links on this forum sometimes end up in a wonky redirect that doesn't work properly, while aliexpress.us links do what they're meant to do (it may be different based on your location).

https://aliexpress.com/item/1005006457498617.html -> redirect that ends up on the AliExpress home page
https://aliexpress.us/item/1005006457498617.html -> gets me to the product page

I swear the link was working when I post it, so must have been automatically modified by the forum later.

The IGS630 is a solid unit. Though it's always good to have competition. I'll definitely wait to see how the reviews pan out on the Magene C606. For those in the US, it already has a placeholder link on Amazon for prime purchase. Units aren't available yet.

They look seriously awesome, but my worry is how they will look under sunlight. Garmin in this is excellent.

Doesn't it require offline map files of some sort? These can be huge for some places.
I have easily 15 GB of map files on my phone (not counting POI lists) and that only covers Germany and some of its direct neighbours.

What app? Some seem to have better compression. OSMAND (which is probably the closest they would use) for western switzerland, french rhones alpes, franche comte, alsace, aosta and BW, including wikipedia, terrain, contour and standard maps is under 2GB for me. The equivalent on mapy is 4, and on offlinemaps it was closer to 10 iirc but I deleted it

But keep in mind cycling maps are often just roads and a couple POIs if you're lucky, they don't have all this detail so as long as you don't want an entire continent or manage them before travel it should be fine.
