    The drill feature for pool swims is something I asked in the Coros subreddit when the Pace 3 came out, and they confirmed there that it was coming in a future update. I am so happy to see that they delivered what they promised !

      @mlegrand  23 дні тому +3

      Yes!!! I've been bugging them for a very long time to try to find a way to add it. I'm very excited that it made it in here. Hopefully it'll come to all of the other watches in an update soon. 🤷‍♂️

      Really happy to see any mention of swimming features. Swimming is the only exercise I do, and you wouldn't believe how hard it is to find quality reviews talking about real usage experience to give me reasonable expectations. Not everyone's a runner! I'd love to see a bit more time given to swimming in reviews, such as accuracy of various metrics, quality of life features like pausing sets or auto rest interval, editing swim sets etc. I've been on the verge of buying my first smart watch for years now. I thought the Garmin 265 would be the one, but I'm now looking seriously at a Pace 3 after learning about the improved swim updates. I like the style, compactness and price. Don't need or want AMOLED either. Love your work mate. Top quality production and good, practical talking points. Cheers from New Zealand. ❤

    As a beta tester from day one, this thing absolutely nailed it! Definitely my daily driver now! The optical heart rate was spot on as well as the gps tracking! And SEXY! I was worried about it being seen in the sunlight, but my fears were definitely unfounded! And hands down the maps are the best yet on any Coros! And to squish the fears, battery life is NOT an issue!

    I’ve had the Apex pro since it was released a little over four years now and I’ve used it for absolutely everything.
    I got the email today that the Pace Pro was available. And now that the Apex pro has ended its firmware life. It’s time to get the pace pro which four years later is a step up from what the Apex pro was when it first came out. I also have a Dura and absolutely love it. Coros is definitely anything but mainstream-you can keep your Garmin.

    I was lucky enough to test this watch for the past few months. As soon as I took it out of the box, it became my daily driver. Heart rate and GPS was always spot on. AMOLED screen is beautiful in person. As always with Coros, battery life is incredible and the watch is super light. It’s honestly, the perfect watch for me, not even close.

      That's cool that you've been testing it for a while. I've also had a good experience with it. I was going to check out some of the other reviews to see if it was just me or if most people are enjoying this watch. Glad it's been solid for you!

      Hmm, I think that's a really tricky call. I *think* I'd go with COROS for more flushed out features but the hardware on these two devices are very similar. Not to mention they're the exact same price.

      My Pace 2 died last week. I was thorn between M3, Suunto Race S and Pace 3 Pro. But for me the design of the Pace 3 Pro is.. horrible? I ordered myself a Suunto Race S. As Legrand says, hardware etc they are basically same.

    • @LiveYoung0
      @LiveYoung0 24 дні тому

      @mlegrand I decided go with open box Garmin 265 at same price. $350. I don't care for MAPs. I like Garmin watch INTERFACE better. Sunto could be better build but don't care for that as much. Battery life on Coros Pace Pro better but Garmin is enough and really disappointed at Coros for making Pace Pro $120 more than Pace 3. If they kept the price at like $299.. they would have dominated and brought more people over to their eco-system. I also went with Garmin 265 over Sunto Race S. Smart feature where you can touch it to turn off Screen. (I had that on Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 Classic) based on reviews I like the daily training and recovery reminder. Good bye to Coros Pace 3, MIP screen sucked, I could not see it at all indoors; especially since older people like me. Need OLED Display. Coros Pace Pro at $350 is not worth it.. rather pay few bucks more to get 265 or 165 or Sunto Race S. and decided on 265. I think every watch has their pros and cons... I'm just going to be using it Running mainly... and 265 is suffices my need.

      Hey Chris, yeah, that was a pretty big mistake within this video. I kind of stuffed in a graph that wasn't particularly in line with what I was talking about at 13:31 but I noticed HR data being ok once it found and locked on my heart rate. It did take significantly longer than other watches to lock on. Also, this was an early beta build so it might be something they refine with this watch. 🤷‍♂️

    The watch is so ugly the amazing closeups actually show how plasticky they are instead of showing them for a good looking product. Praise the cameraman but the design department needs to step up their game. Look at chinese watch. The quality of materials and the accuracy of measurements is top notch - they are only lacking in software (Huawei, Amazfit).
