COROS is teasing an 'all-new Apex' mountain watch; here's what we expect


A COROS APEX 3 or APEX 3 Pro would need to differentiate itself from the rugged NOMAD, sporty PACE, and premium VERTIX.

As a given, we can expect the APEX 3 (Pro) to offer a titanium bezel, sapphire glass, dual-band GPS, offline maps with street names and POIs powered by COROS's fast new Ambiq Apollo 510 processor, an altimeter and gyroscope, and at least two weeks of battery life.

Channeling his love of running, he established himself as an expert on fitness watches, testing and reviewing models from Garmin, Fitbit, Samsung, Apple, COROS, Polar, Amazfit, Suunto, and more.
