Coros Pace Pro vs Coros Pace 3: Three runners pick between two of our favourite sports watches

[@seansutton4836]

I totally agree about the MIP v AMOLED comment. There are so many positives for the MIP screen. Love being able to glance at the screen while running and see my heart rate. With AMOLED there is a slight delay even with the Always on on. If you never try AMOLED you could be happy with MIP forever. MIP is amazing outside where we should be using these watches anyway.

Love my pace pro. I always loved the coros ecosystem and the pace 3 is an incredible watch. But it’s hard to turn down full mapping, better speed and beautiful screen

Would you go for the Garmin 265 or the pace?

I've got the original Apex 42mm model (2019). I've been wanted to buy a new model, keeping an eye on the Pace 3 but I'll wait until the Pace 4 model, hopefully a 42mm with AMOLED screen.

I have a green pace 3 and an apex 2 pro but if I am not running on trails I tend to wear the pace 3 because it is light and very reliable watch.

I was hesitating between the pace 3 and pace pro for my first smartwatch and ended up going with the pro. Arrives in a week so let's see how it goes

same but went with pace 3 :)

I like the new Pace Pro but the new features aren’t enough to upgrade from my Pace 3. The improvement between Pace 2 and 3 was bigger than Pace 3 and Pro. Maybe with some next gen… also in Europe the price is higher for Pace Pro- 399 €.

There should be an Apex 2 Pro thrown in the mix as a comparison with maps and better materials for similar price to the Pace Pro. The only downside of Apex 2 Pro compared to the Pace Pro is far worse sillicone strap design and comfort (its horrible on A2P) and Id say worse antenna design.

That turquoise plastic pace 3 reminds me of a toilet seat I had in the 1970s

[@uhuhuhuhuhuh91]

was it an amoled toilet seat with ECG functionality?

Both are great , but at 250 euro u just cant get a better package on the market today.
