COROS Pace Pro In-Depth Review: 18 New Things To Know!

The COROS Pace Pro is kinda a Pace 3, but also kinda not. Yes, it’s easiest to mentally think of it as a Pace 3, but technologically speaking…nah. After all, it’s got a new processor, new heart rate sensor, new GPS chipset, new display, new battery, new button sizing, new GPS antenna, new band design, new…well…basically everything. Including, most notably, a price nearly double that of the Pace 3. In fact, one could basically argue this is actually more of an Apex 3 than anything else. Nonetheless, we’ll continue pretending it’s a Pace 3+.

Here’s how it differs from the Pace 3:

– Switched from MIP to AMOLED display (from 240x240px to 416x416px)
– Increased display size from 1.2” to 1.3” (still mineral glass)
– Increased case size from 42mm to 46mm
– Increased button sizes and grip substantially
– AMOLED Display brightness is 1,500 nits
– New optical heart rate sensor (versus Pace 3)
– Added ECG feature (Note: Not FDA/CE certified, no Afib detection)
– New GPS chipset & antenna design (versus Pace 3)
– Increased GPS battery life from 25hrs to 38hrs (‘All Systems’ mode, full chart below)
– Daily smartwatch battery life 20 days (gesture display) or 6 days (always-on display)
– Switched from included fabric band to included silicon band
– Increased internal storage from 4GB to 32GB
– Increased processor speed
– Added full color maps (details down below)
– Increased weight slightly from 39g (silicone) to 49.1g (silicone), or 30g to 37.1g (if nylon/fabric)
– Maintains 5ATM (50m) water resistance rating
– Maintains temp range of -4*F to 122*f (-20*c to 50*c)
– Price increases from $229 to $349 (though obviously, a big feature jump)
