CONTEXT
I'm coming to Coros after about a decade as a dedicated Garmin person. The two things that drew me to Coros are cost and battery life. I'm upgrading because I want a longer battery, maps, and a more durable screen.
My most recent Garmin was a Fenix 6. That watch has a 16-day battery life. My prior Garmin Fenix 3 had a 4-6 weeks battery life. Having to charge every couple of weeks was always a surprisingly frustrating experience after I upgraded to the Fenix 6. It was never not annoying.
BATTERY LIFE
I haven't tested the Coros' battery life to its limits, but the reviews and my experience with the Coros Vertix 2 make me fully confident that the Apex 2 Pro will hit the projected 30 days. This means that it has roughly *twice* the battery life of the direct counterpart Fenix 7. That's significant! The internet tells me that part of the battery savings comes from Coros' approach of checking your heart rate every 10 minutes while Garmin checks constantly. Two things to keep in mind with this are that (a) you can adjust a setting in the Coros to get constant HR checking at the expense of some battery life, and (b) the watch switches to constant HR checking as soon as you start an activity. I'll happily give up granular non-activity HR checking for double the battery life.
COST
The Apex 2 Pro comes in at $500. The equivalent Garmin Fenix 7 Sapphire Solar comes in at $900. That's a massive delta in price. One thing that has bothered me about many of the reviews I read about the Apex 2 Pro was that reviewers compared the 2 Pro to the $500 Garmin 955. Where this falls down for me is that the 955 has a full plastic case and a Gorilla Glass screen. With their metal faces and sapphire screens, the 2 Pro and the Fenix 7 are significantly more robust than the 955. This is important for many purchasers who are using these watches in the mountains, on job sites, and in other settings where durability is key.
USER INTERFACE
I was convinced that I would hate having to navigate the watch by twisting the crown. Surprisingly, I got used to this after about two weeks. (FYI - most of my time with a Coros has been with the Vertix 2) Now, the thought of returning to Garmin’s many buttons seems overly complicated. I’ve used Vertix 2 in snowy mountains with thick-ish gloves on and didn’t have any issues. During activities, you can cycle through screens with either the touchscreen or the crown. I’ve turned off the touchscreen during my activities solely because I kept accidentally moving through screens when sweaty towels swiped the screen while riding my trainer indoors.
SCREEN
Some online reviews indicated that the Apex 2 Pro’s sapphire screen is slightly clearer and less reflective than the Vertix 2’s sapphire screen. I didn’t find that to be the case. In fact, I think the Vertix 2’s screen is ever so slightly clearer than the 2 Pro’s, but this is only something you’d notice when comparing the two watches side-by-side with indoor lighting.
WHY I’M *NOT* KEEPING THIS WATCH
After all that praise, you may be surprised to learn that I’m returning this watch to buy a Vertix 2. If the decision was only between the Fenix 7 and the Apex 2 Pro, I’d be keeping it. But I’ve been borrowing a Vertix 2 for a while now and the Vertix 2 wins out over the 2 Pro in a few areas. First, it has a two months battery life which is absolutely staggering. That’s a quality of life feature that I can’t give up now that I've had it. Second, I prefer how the Vertix 2 fits on my wrist. At 6’3” and over 200 lbs, I’m not a small person. I think the Apex 2 Pro will fit better for most people. Third, I prefer how the Vertix 2 looks. As vain as this is, the Vertix 2 is more rugged whereas the 2 Pro has a sleeker look. If I was still working in offices and wearing suits, I’d almost certainly go with the 2 Pro for its more professional appearance and its ability to more easily fit under tight sleeves.
The Pace 2 is great, but I wanted a little more. Been a happy Coros user for three years now 👍🏼👍🏼
One thing I really appreciate about the Apex Pro 2 is the customization for different activities. Whether I'm running, cycling, or swimming, the watch has the ability to track my progress and provide useful metrics. However, I must say I was a bit disappointed with the customization for watch faces, as there are not many options available.
The GPS accuracy is quite good when all GPS systems are used, but if not, it can be quite poor. I have noticed this on a few occasions, but it hasn't been a major issue for me.
Unfortunately, I was not too impressed with the sleeping tracking feature. While it's nice to have the ability to track my sleep, the watch doesn't automatically measure HRV during the night, so it's basically useless unless I manually take a measurement upon waking up.
Overall, the Corus Apex Pro 2 is a good option if you're looking for a watch with a long battery life and readability. However, if you're primarily interested in using it as a health fitness tracker, the limitations on HRV may be a deal-breaker. In that case, there are better options available on the market at a similar price point.

Reçue en deux jours (me disait plus d'une semaine)
On peut planifier notre plan d'entraînement sur l'application ou en télécharger sur le site Coros et l'envoyer à la montre. On peut même planifier/créer des itinéraires de la même façon.
On peut télécharger des fichiers MP3 de musique et connecter nos écouteurs directement à la montre. 🎶
La vie de la batterie est super longue.
Matériaux super résistants (pas faite de plastique comme plusieurs autres montres).
Je recommande :)

1) Neue Firmware installieren - Abbruch mit Fehlermeldung - jedoch ohne eine Ursache zu nennen oder Hilfestellung zu geben
2) Karten installieren - der entsprechende Punkt fehlt komplett im Menu
Hilfeseite auf der Seite von Coros sind oftmals nicht hilfreich, weil sie an den entscheidenden Stellen nicht genau genug sind.
Mit Garmin kam ich zurecht, aber der Service der Firma ist mir zu übel - und einige Features sind einfach nicht gut umgesetzt - daher die Suche nach einer Alternative.
Eine Suunto kann ich in weniger als 5 Minuten komplett installlieren, habe keine offenen Fragen und alles funktioniert. Das Design ist dort klar und strukturiert. Nicht so ein verhau wie bei Coros, die, wenn sie schon alles bei Garmin kopieren, es doch wenigstens besser machen sollten.
