Review on Coros PACE 2 Premium GPS Sport Watch: Heart Rate Monitor, 30h Full GPS Battery, Barometer, Strava & TrainingPeaks Compatible by Steven Ali

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great alternative to a Garmin watch

I used to use a Garmin Vivoactive watch as my fitness and running watch. While they were great for keeping track of things, the battery life was never what was promised or what I thought it would be. Coro's Pace 2 is worth something for battery life alone. After a week and a half of using the watch, the battery was only down to 40% after the first charge. My Garmin tended to drop to 85% after one day. In terms of features, it's very comparable to what Garmin watches offer at similar prices. There are a few things I like more about Garmin (like music controls, the ability to track mileage on running shoes) and things I like more about Coros watches (mileage, fitness level, training load). as easy to use as the touchscreen during class. It takes more getting used to than a real cheat. Accuracy seems about the same when I compare side by side. Sometimes it feels like the heart rate monitor is disabled, but I often felt the same way with my Garmin. Overall, you'll be hard pressed to find a better running watch for the price. And in my opinion the battery life far exceeds any small niggles I would make.

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Unbelievable price
