Which watch should I choose for trail running?

I posted a few months ago asking about changing from Garmin Fenix 5 to Coros Apex 4. Best decision I made.

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

What running watch do you use?

Currently on the Coros Apex 4. Great battery life, great screen, all the bells and whistles. I just love it. I switched from Garmin about 8 years ago and haven’t looked back. I use the Coros Dura while biking.

Switch from Suunto race 2 to Coros Pace 4 Jakob INGEBRIGTSEN edition?

I've had Suunto Race 2, Suunto Vertical 2, and Coros Apex 4 - unfortunately have not tried Coros' Amoled screens yet. Pace 4 will be MUCH lighter. The Coros app is the most polished of any I've tried (Garmin, Amazfit, Suunto, Coros). You will get better health metrics (more reliable sleep tracking,

Coros Apex 4 so far?

I'm using Apex 4 since February, for me it's perfect watch, but im Coros fan since last 7 years. Transfer from Apple watch will be a huge improvement for you, but please remember that Coros is more sport than smart watch. Very good for running, hiking, cycling but not for reading mails. I love sapph

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.

I have an Apple Watch and I maybe want to switch to coros. My problem is the build quality.

Got a Coros Pace 2 in Dec 2020, it is plastic and cheap, feels plastic and cheap. But it still worked fine when I used it for a run yesterday. Everything still works. Got an Apex 2 in 2023, titanium bezel and Sapphire glass feels solid and premium, but the charging port failed after about about 1.5

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.
