The new COROS Pace Pro sports watch takes the brand’s leading running watch and updates it with a bright AMOLED touchscreen display. Providing a bright, easy-to-read screen alongside the feature of the existing Pace 3 model elevates the watch to the front of the pack in terms of performance and battery life.
A new processor makes the Pace Pro twice as fast as the Pace 3 model, making features such as mapping fast to use while on the move.
Despite the performance increases, the watch still only weighs an incredible 32.5g, so when on the wrist, you hardly notice you are wearing it all.
Battery life, as we’ve come to expect from Coros devices, is in a league of its own, with the Pace Pro providing 38 hours of continuous use with all its navigational and performance tracking features in use. In daily use, this translates to around 20 days of use with the screen in always-on mode!
Charging is quick and easy, too, via the new USB-C charging adapter.
Built-in sensors record every metric you could wish for with GPS, heart rate, blood oxygen saturation, as well as a compass and accelerometer.
Built-in mapping allows for turn-by-turn navigation on routes as well as the ability to guide you back to the starting point of a route should you go off course. The new, bright colour screen makes navigation a joy to use and the improved processor speed means the watch reflects your position quickly.
By tracking not only your activity but recovery throughout the day, the watch also helps to provide a balanced view of your health and activity around the clock.
COROS HR Monitor
The Pace Pro works seamlessly with the Coros Heart Rate Monitor. More comfortable to wear than a chest strap, the monitor fits snuggly to the arm and sits snuggly against the skin, being less prone to movement than the watch. As such, it gives consistently accurate readings from its multi-channel optical sensor.
The Heart Rate Monitor can connect via Bluetooth to 3 enabled devices, making it a great tool if using a treadmill or perhaps an external system such as Zwift. Easily rechargeable via USB, the monitor offers around 38 hours of use from a single charge or up to 80 days in standby mode!
COROS Training Hub
Both the Coros Pace Pro and the Coros Heart Rate Monitor link to the brand’s training hub, an app and website-based platform that allows you to understand and analyse your training and performance. This powerful tool is easy to understand and makes planning future training a more informed process. Data can be shared with your coach anywhere at any time for in-depth analysis.
