Runners should already check Coros instead of Amazfit
The Coros Pace series build quality isn't great. They're all-plastic watches, normal glass screen. The base Pace 4 also has only a 1.2" screen (same as the Garmin 165, which is also a cheap plastic build). The Active 3 seems to be targeted as Amazfit's entry level running watch has better build qual

Amazfit makes it official Cheetah 2 Pro
For that price, I'd buy a Suunto Race 2 or a Coros Apex 4. Not this thing

Nomad Review
The Nomad is essentially an Apex 4 in a bulkier polycarbonate body with a normal glass screen. It's Coros's answer to the Garmin Instinct series, and has a lot more functionality as well (like maps!) that Garmin gates to their higher end devices.

Need help choosing a running/trail watch: Coros Apex 4, Suunto Vertical 2 / Race 2, or used Fenix 7 Pro
Coros watches offer impressive value for money. The Apex 4 can handle 100km easily. The battery life of the Coros watches is nuts considering their form factor.

Down/sidegrade to coros from Garmin 965?
I have switched from F955 to Apex 4 for many of the same reason you mentioned. Having no software update after 2-3y with garmin is crazy to me and for their low entry watch cost you can have a mid-high tier with coros. I personally sold everything I own from garmin, this company lost their way. Coro

Best COROS watch for trail, running & outdoor—Which one for me?
Help! Which is better, a 3 year old watch or a brand new watch? The Apex 4 is the best watch available from Coros right now.

Shoutout to Coros!
Coros does a remarkable job of delivering us great products I'd say they do a remarkable job of creating great products... but the delivery of them could use some work. There have been a lot of folks waiting for the Apex 4 and Pace 4 to finally ship.

Apex 4 is a disappointment
I agree with the both of you. I don't think that every release has to be ground breaking or revolutionary. Pardon the pun but the Apex has reached its apex in terms of MIPS hardware design. Other than adding a flashlight and making the watch more premium and with an appealing "cool" factor, the Apex

Apex 4 is a disappointment
It seems to me like a lot of complaints are from people looking for the latest and greatest gadget, but that is not what coros is about. The pace pro came out a year ago, of course this isn't going to have any drastic changes. The only thing I can understand being disappointed about is the flashligh

Nomad Review
I just got a Nomad couple of weeks ago. I upgraded from the Apex Pro 1. I did not have to, the watch was running great. But I found a great deal and jumped on it. The nomad is great. My reasoning behind getting it was: you get 90% of the Apex 4 (the important 90%), for 70% the price, or even less if
