And here’s a full function comparability of all of the Coros fashions, so you’ll be able to see which one most accurately fits your wants.
What separates this watch from all of the others is its out of doors options. I’m not speaking about GPS accuracy or altimeter or mapping qualities (although I’ll speak about these).

Significantly, the next options:

Drop a water pin to recollect a water cease. A number of in-activity pin choices abound, together with rest room, trailfork, or campground. For fishing, mark a great spot for canopy or construction.

> Offline mapping with road names
That is the primary Coros watch to have offline colour and topo mapping with road names, one thing that not even the Garmin Intuition has. It is a big step ahead and is a welcome function for the true adventurers who’re susceptible to exploring (i.e. getting misplaced), particularly when their cellphone dies out on the run (me).
