The COROS PACE Pro is the new mid-range running watch to beat

COROS promised that the PACE Pro has improved GPS and HR accuracy, so I tested the results against the Garmin Fenix 8 and Polar H10.

I'll go more in-depth in both areas below, but if you're in a hurry, here are my main impressions: I see a definite improvement in GPS accuracy, bringing it functionally in range of Garmin so that no one will mind the gap.

This is a pretty common weak point for most watches — a lack of responsiveness when running in a high-aerobic or anaerobic HR zone — but I hoped COROS would improve in this area.
