Sigma's new Rox Evo 12.1 launches today and the first impressions are that it’s far more than a second-tier Garmin competitor. It’s very high quality, a big step up from the well received Rox 12.0 Sport, and carries a lot of bang for its buck. It’s well up there with the best GPS units for cycling.
Its standout features include welcome zoom buttons alongside the touchscreen; really good phone integration with a lovely app for setup and quick route transfer; and clear mapping with some very nice on-the-fly features. Compared with the 12.0, it’s a much smaller unit for the same screen size, it’s got way more compatibility with other devices, and the all new phone app is a game changer.
