Only a day? COROS has it beat by having 100+ hours of GPS riding.
And I think GPS is the key power consumption part here. Have you tried opening one of those background location tracking apps that would require your phone to receive GPS all day long? That significantly reduces battery life on your phone. You really want your entire GPS stack running on a power-sipping processor, not on your phone’s application processor.

If my memory is correct, at the price of only be able to sync your rides and routes using a proprietary app that probably also send all your data to mothership.
