The value of the pace series is amazing. I get why this is the watch of choice for serious runners. Yes, the features are amazing for the price, but the fact it is so small, light, and comfortable is the real highlight of the series. (This is where I actually wanted to post this 😂)

@@TheValonquarI’ve got the Pace2 and picked up the Pod2 to get fast accurate pace data…that and I run around skyscrapers in the city often, so wanted accurate pace, distances and times in those gps challenging environments. For the most part, the Pace 2 on its own was good. Just on every few runs there’d be a section where it might loose track of me…but it was under large overpasses or really tall buildings. Works great with the Pod2, pace data gets to the watch fast and my splits are accurate, so I’m happy with the purchase.

[@chrisking6448]

Matt, I’m planning to get the Pace 3 for my son who’s in the military. He mainly wants a sport watch for tracking his runs and he’s currently not on any platform (Apple, Garmin, COROS, etc) so in his case - the Pace 3 should be perfect. I also think your point of restating the Pace 3’s price several times is warranted: considering the Pace 3’s $229 price tag vs the AW Ultra’s $799 price tag, the Pace 3’s performance is outstanding!! Great video!! Thank you Matt!

[@mlegrand]

It was a little much wasn't it. When editing, it starts to get a bit repetitive. Probably could have gotten away with one less reminder. 😉 Thanks for all of the support here with this channel Chris! I really appreciate it.

[@HoytMcBeth]

Matt - your videography is second to none. Your intros are beautiful! I’ve had the Pace 2 for coming on three years, and it has been a fabulous fitness watch. That I just received turn by turn upgrades on a three year old watch is bonkers. The optical HR accuracy has always been a downside for the P2 - even with running (cycling it’s a complete mess) I found it very hit and miss. I think that’s the real value-add on the Pace 3, but that’s because my anal retentive nature manifests more strongly on heart rate than GPS. The challenge for Coros with their existing users is that the Pace 2 is such a mind blowing value that if you’re going to upgrade, you’re probably going to want more features, and the FR255 seems like a bigger set up in features and accuracy. The Pace series is for the value minded customers, and I don’t think the delta is big enough to upgrade from the Pace 2 to Pace 3 (at least for me). In terms of the watch band, I have both the nylon and silicone, and I really like the look of the silicone. It can pass in a work setting and it has infinite settings for a good fit. Garmin’s bands on budget watches look cheap by comparison. One thing I think you forgot to mention is that the Pace 3 added a trail running setting. I miss having that on the Pace 2. Dave at CTS said it was ported to the P2 in the latest firmware upgrade but I don’t have it.

[@mlegrand]

Yes, there's a few activity types that are getting ported back to the Pace 2 eventually. Trail Running, Hiking, Skiing, Snowboard, XC Ski. I love Dave's channel. He does such a good job at Chase the Summit. Thank you so much for the kind words about the videography!!!

[@KonstantinosDouros]

[@KonstantinosDouros]

[@karelkalus7319]

I now have Pace 2 for over 2 years. It's impressive to see what changed by the time. From simple "find my phone" feature to turn-by-turn navigation - something you're not used to seeing at this price tag. The app is leaping forward as well, although seeing my wife's Garmin app, it is still better, in my opinion, but I root for Coros as it gets closer with each update. The only downside for me was that no one in Europe could fix the broken screen. I would have to send it to the US for repair, which is close to buying a new Pace. But this information is from around a year ago. They may provide services in Europe now. Apart from the little chip from the stone, the plastic body holds up bravely through MTB and landscaping. I'm impressed with the value. 👍

[@mlegrand]

I love that. My watch updated firmware (don't ask if it is beta or the stock upgrades- I have no idea!), but it classifies rides now. At least I think it does...it told me today was "threshold" which I think is unbelievably cool. Say...while I have your attention. High school level athlete wants to better monitor recovery and efforts. What's his best watch option? This one, with the lack of HRV, doesn't seem like it is it. Garmin 255? If he doesn't like to charge things, step up to the instinct 2S (I could be making up that naming) but the newest instinct? The 255 and Instinct are pretty similar, minus the battery difference, right? Thanks for being our guiding light

[@mlegrand]

For the price I think it brings a lot of value. I am wondering how the features work. Like: OWS, swim, bike, running workouts, saved running routes, and sleep tracking. I am considering the Garmin FR 255 & 955. Do you think these are better watches? For that price point, I think the Coros Pace 3 is hard to beat. I wish it was just a little cheaper, tbh. Though I do like the new features and upgrades on the Pace 3. ⌚️

[@mlegrand]

I do think the 255 and 955 are better watches. But it comes at a higher price. The Pace 3 does the basics well but the newer Garmin watches really dive into how you slept and how that might effect your day. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help you figure out which way to go. It's a tricky call.

[@JLM65]

Hello, sorry for the English. All your videos are fantastic. After seeing the review you did of the Amazfit Cheetah Pro I had made the decision to buy it, but now I have seen the Coros Pace Pro and I have a doubt. There is something that really attracts me to the Cheetah as opposed to the Pace 3, and that is the Amoled screen, size and resolution, but there are qualities that are very important such as: GPS and heart rate and personal trainer. What do you think would be the best choice? Do you plan to make a comparison between these watches and even some Polar, Garmin or Suunto in the same price range? Thank you.

[@mlegrand]

I don't have any plans to compare the two but I'd lean towards the Pace 3 as long as you're ok with the smaller size. There's tons of deals to be had as we head into the holiday season. I would also consider the Garmin Forerunner 255 if it is on sale. It's an amazing watch.

Just fyi, I am a runner and swimmer. The swimming metrics are fine but not really detailed as they are with a Garmin Swim 2. The Garmin is good for swimming but, as with other Garmin watches, the battery has to be recharged after one day. The Coros watch provides enough swimming metrics to satisfy your basic needs, if you’re not a competitive swimmer. I am so I wear both.

[@mlegrand]

I think the big thing is a drill mode so if you swim a kick set or drill set you’d still get the correct swim distance. I have a lot of Garmin device but can’t think of one that only has 24 hour battery life. Maybe you’re thinking of Apple? I have one Garmin that’ll go a month and a few that’ll go for about a week.

Almost always the 255. Quality over quantity of functions. The 255 will be more accurate in many cases. On the other hand, with routes/navigation on the pace 3 has more features and you have a bigger chance of getting updates with more functionality. But the 255 is more accurate, on many levels more refined and has the build quality to last a year of 7 to 10.

Hi, did you have any issues with display brightness?

Good question Stephen. They actually made this watch brighter than the Pace 2. 🤷‍♂️ I think if you're used to an AMOLED display, these MIP displays are always going to feel dark to you.

Love the Pace 3, but as a triathlete that trains indoors on platforms like Zwift, without ANT+ this watch is a no go unfortunately. Awesome, awesome racing watch but I just can't understand why Coros did not add ant+. Until power meters broadcast multiple Bluetooth transmissions, a watch without ANT+ is a step back since you can't pair the watch and a tablet at the same time.

[@mlegrand]

Right. ANT+ is amazing for it's ability to connected to any number of devices. I do think it requires an additional chipset so I expect less and less manufactures to support it in the future.
