I'll chime in as someone who paid the full USD$195 for the W603 unit (with the various discounts they seem to offer perpetually). I've now ridden a few hundred miles with mine on trails, roads, through long water crossings, in pouring rain and so far it is doing exactly what it promises. Connects perfectly with my iPhone every time and hasn't faltered once. Very responsive, easy to read and use and seems to be holding up to my abuse no problem. I generally don't trust reviews where the device is provided and there are referral links where the poster earns money from sales but that's 99% of the Carpuride reviews on CZcams. They're oversaturating with these sponsored reviews making it harder to find actual reviews from actual purchasers. There are a few on YT. I haven't posted a review and don't plan on it, but I did recently post a 1.5 hour long ride video with my W603 being used the entire time.
I'm happy to get a comment from an actual owner or Carpuride, very detailed and good info. I hope people who watches my video reads your comment =) Yes, many people seems to be getting a free product for making a review. It's a good way for the company to get their product out there "for free". Even though I have referral link, (which I doubt will generate any significant money for me) I do all my videos honestly and with my own opinion. The money we CAN make from an actual referral isn't much, unless my video will reach millions of views.... (which is unlikely). Even though I got this product for free, it does not change my own opinion of it, in my contract with Carpuride it only says that they want a review thats "honest and fairly". So if I didn't like the product, I could have said so in the video and not breach the contract, and still get to keep the product. But you do know, that it's a good device, so... =) I'm not saying you complained, just wanted to clarify.... thanks for watching please subscribe to support me and my work
I like music in cars, but I never ride with it. Even as a kid, I rode bikes with no tunes. Dunno why, but I like to hear the world's noise while on two. Nice bike, though. :) :)
Even though it was locked tightly, I'm still worried that it would fall while riding, especially since it's obvious that the device is vibrating when you ride. however, it's very cool and suitable for touring bikes because of the large screen but in my opinion it is not suitable for small or fairing bikes, are there other models with smaller screens? Nice vid DV, ride safe buddy! 5:29 wow that's a cool hotrod there 6:27 haha that's also happened to me sometimes and it's kinda embarrassing lol 😆
It will not fall of hehe. As you can see in the video I took it offroad and 200 km/h and it didn't move an inch =P They do have smaller models, they sent me their largest screen though. Yeah super cool hotrod for sure. I followed it around a bit. Maybe I will throw that footage in on my "compilation series" stalling bikes happens from time to time for me, even though i'm a "pro" ;) I don't even think about it when it happens, I just restart the bike and keep going. I feel no embarrassment at all =P Thanks for watching Gaz!!
I've got an email asking if we want to try one of these in return for review. Tempting but we're more than happy with our old Garmin units. Looks a good way to link your phone to a robust display
@@Banditmanuk go for it. Always nice to have another or a spare one. The company has been very nice to me and the service / communication has been great. Thanks for watching Mr bandit

@@Darkvisor If they had offered me a free unit, I'd take it too!

@@RandysRides yeah same here. I want to hear the bikes engine. Especially if you ride with a nice exhaust or straight pipes.
Thanks for watching Randy
