Hey Neil, thank you for sharing your full review of your PACE 3 with your audience. We are happy to hear that you are loving the watch so far. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you ever have any questions about your COROS! Happy Training 💪🏽
@@mahendran189 I don't believe there is as this would drain the battery and that's a key selling point over Garmin. However you can start an activity with the GPS off and this would give you HR data.
Nice looking watch. I have heard good things about it. I stick with Garmin mainly to support local jobs. The dual GPS feature is interesting. I have in on my Garmin Fenix 6 but everyone says don't use it since only GPS satellite only is more accurate. I have mine turned off. I got this from the Garmin forums. Great review
Glad to hear you've still been enjoying your new watch Neil. I really like the way it looks with that red colour. Pretty cool. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experiences with us mate! 😎🤘
Your review of the Pace 3 is so detailed and informative, I love how passionate you are about it! It's awesome to hear about the battery life and accuracy improvements. Keep running strong with that amazing watch, Neil! PS: I also love my Coros Apex Pro! I definitely need to acquire a watch strap like yours!
I also don't regret leaving my garmin phenix for coros, and I also bought the track edition, like you, and the training website, the lab, is amazing with the data. I use mine with a polar strap for measuring the HR. Completely happy with mine.
I also switched from Garmin to Coros Pace 3 for the same reasons. Quite happy after having it for a couple months now. My only complaint is the training load feature can be a little discouraging now and then. Also, my battery doesn't last as long as you report but it's much longer than my Garmin.
My battery seems to last forever. Definitely 38hrs of running. Don't get to bogged down by one metric. Take all the metrics and be guided by the macro not the micro.
it's excellent if you use coros's hrm arm band too, planning to buy their coros pod 2 because I find the pace on the watch is a bit delayed for my liking and to complete the triad of pace 3 + hrm + pod 2.
I have the Coros pace 3 and I am also enjoying it and left Garmin. I also have their arm strap and use it when I work out since it’s so easy to transport and comfortable. My only gripe is I keep my watch tight with a Velcro band and sometimes I’ll look at my heart rate and it will be like 62. I know it’s not that so in my other wrist is an apple watch and I’ll get the reading and it like 80. I put on a pulse oximeter to compare and it matches the 80. So basically sometimes just wearing the watch the heart rate tanks out. However, the important think it’s accurate in my sleep and accurate with my Coros arm strap when I exercise. I also wish you could delete all the wellness checks on the app now that those are available which is a cool feature like Garmins Health Snapshot. I also wish you could add a note to your report of how you’re feeling. Lastly, I wish they would add abnormal heart rate alerts as that woukd be easy to do since you can put it on always on heart now. If it detects your heart while your still (other watches you can determine the number 100,110,120) it will alert you. This could be a life saver for some in their sleep. It would wake them up in the middle of the night if their heart rate goes up. Or it can determine stress and you can do a wellness check as it allows you to do now.
Apple has always been spot on for me. The other negative thing it only records your heart rate in the app every 30 minutes. Garmin is every two minutes in their app. Seems like it would be hard to get an average heart rate recording the in the app every 30 minutes. It shows it on my display in real time. You can also set it it to 10 minute readings but it only records the app data every 30 minutes.
@@chriscarpunky the watch format on and off the heart rate reading every 10mins whereas the Garmin doesn't. That's why the Coros battery life is so much better than the Garmin. They'll all be doing the same as Coros soon.
I don’t think so. Garmin Instinct is always on and has a battery life of 40 days and unlimited if your in the sunlight a couple hours a day. My Coros is set to always on heart rate. It drains a little more but anyway if you or I have it set for 10 minutes to read the heart rate then I’m just saying I think they should record it in the app every 10 minutes. It doesn’t drain the battery because you only have to sync once a day so that data would go to the app. You are getting a read 6 times an hour if you have yours on 10 minute readings. However, your app only records it once in 30 minutes on the app. I could do a big HIIT for 20 minutes and it wouldn’t show up in the app. It would show up in the workout data though. Hopefully, I made sense of what I was trying to say. I do like it though.
Where did you buy it? I live in Europe and can't find it for less than 250€, maybe they increased the price but feels odd since they didn't do it with the earlier version for about 6 years
@@RunSensible thanks for the response, online 249€ is the lowest i've seen it If you know of some website with a lower price would be much appreciated 🙂

Thank you for making an amazing product.
Whoah, COROS is here. It really shows that COROS listens to their customers feedback.
@@Thatsmantas yes, I had the same thought too. It's a fabulous product.
@corosGlobal everything is amazing , is there any option to activate continues HR like Garmin?

That's interesting about the dial GPS. I'll do a test on that.

Thanks, Ben. It's a class watch.
That battery life is impressive! Glad you and the new watch are getting on so well ❤
We are getting along a dream. Now I need to make up with gravity - we argue over my actual weight all the time.

The Coros range is amazing. They really are the best sports watches

Great stuff. I think I'll by the arm strap for HR reading.
@@RunSensible if you want better data, the chest strap will be better, it's a personal choice 😉😉
@@jorge-mendes I use a chest strap at present. You think it is more accurate than the arm strap?
I heard that a chest strap is more precise. The COROS Arm strap is an optical monitor like the one already on the watch.
@@JannikLauDK yes, that will be my next purchase.
Went from my 965 to the pace 3.....the Coros is definitely the better running watch
@@markhill8590 I agree 100%

Nice review, looks a great watch compared to the Garmin's we have, thank you for putting this together for us.
Glad you found it useful. 👌
Perfect bang for buck watch

Wrist based HR reading is poor on all watches. I use the arm strap too on every run and it is very reliable.

@@chriscarpunky if you're doing a Hiit coat just turn the watch on to strength Training mode and it will record and send to app.
Que pantalla es la que tiene !?😊
Hi! Just want to know if you can do HIIT Training with this watch as well?
Yes you can. There is a full body workout mode where you can record sets and reps.
Where did you buy it? I live in Europe and can't find it for less than 250€, maybe they increased the price but feels odd since they didn't do it with the earlier version for about 6 years
I bought it in a running shop in Dublin, Ireland. Check out Coros online.

@@xavirr670 try alltricks.com
@@xavirr670 I'll check a few places once I finish working in clinic this evening.
A lot of the newer Garmins have HRV.
Yes but not Garmin that cost €220 with all the rest of the stuff Coros offers too.
@@RunSensible yeah very true 😂 good point
How long is your wrist?
@@sportseveryday2600 I'd say normal length. 🙈
@@RunSensible my wrist is 165 does is suitable
This watch can do heart rate sharing? Like share heart rate data to cycling computer.
I don't think so. I think you would need a chest strap.
It now supports screen mirroring to your smartphone as an option
FYI: You Doxxed somenones Phonenumber at 12:06 maybe blur that or something ; )
Oh thank you, I hadn't noticed.
