Great running GPS
"Great value compared to Garment, it’s a great running watch, I really wish it had a better way to have music 🎶 on the watch, I have to use my phone oh my Apple Watch."
It’s budget friendly
"I upgraded from the Pace 2. I have a Garmin as my main watch and use this watch as a back up to track my runs. I like this watch mainly for track workouts. Although the gps has dual band, It is not more accurate than the Pace 2. I have a Garmin Epix Pro titanium 47 mm and that is the best gps watch I have owned and see it lasting for a long time. The Pace 3, like its predecessor, feels cheap and probably has a lifespan of 2-3 years before it stops working. I’ts inexpensive so if you are on a tight budget, it fits the bill. I do like the retro colors and I got the Emma band to match my race kits in my favorite color."
Lives up to its reviews

The Coros Pace 3 is
"The Coros Pace 3 is exactly what I was expecting! I transitioned from my Coros Apex due to all the new updates. It’s so light and comfortable that I barely notice it, and the metrics are very accurate! PlayBetter got my watch to me quickly, and there was even a note from the founder! What a great company!"
I loved my Apple Watch
"I loved my Apple Watch through several half marathons and one full marathon. The Coros Pace 3 is way better, and the data is on a whole new level. Incredible value."
Excellent upgrade- incredible value
"I bought this as an upgrade from my Garmin first generation Instinct, and it is significantly better than that watch. I've been using the watch for about a month and here are some of my observations. It definitely does a better job tracking your heart rate and other metrics, but still not perfect, but then wrist worn monitors aren't. For example if you're doing calisthenics, weightlifting, HIIT, and such, there is always a significant lag in it catching up to the variances in your heart rate. When riding or running I found the accuracy to be very good, however when doing things such as sprints, again there's a slight lag. For example when doing sprints it was not actually capturing my highest heart rate. I could tell because I manually took my max heart rate and looked at my watch at the same time and there was about a four beat difference. Not really a major deal, but helpful to know. The watch fits so much better than the Instinct - it's low profile, and you rarely even know it's on your wrist. The bulkier watches like the Instinct are hard to forget you're wearing. Comments about how amazing the battery life of this watch is I think are overblown. It's pretty similar to what I had with my Instinct, which is about a week. This is amazing compared to something like an Apple watch, but far short of the 14-day claim. I think the big difference is if you have real-time heart rate monitoring turned on when you're not doing an activity. Otherwise it only read your heart rate once every 10 minutes. Battery life was much higher ( doubled) when set up like this. The downside is that unless you're in an activity you can't get immediate feedback on your heart rate. So for example, after finishing a run and stopping that activity, the watch switches automatically back to measuring every 10 minutes. So I'm not able to see where my heart rate is at for the next 10 minutes - it's only showing my heart rate from when I finished the run. In other words you can't see how your heart is recovering post activity. Kind of stupid. I like the Coros app - A lot of the running metrics are a lot better than what I had with the Garmin app. One thing I don't like about it though is that you cannot edit aspects of your activity or your sleep. Frequently I wake up before the watch registers that I am awake - lying in bed-but the watch still registers me as being asleep. This is similar to what happened with my Garmin, but in the Garmin app you could edit your wake time so it would reflect the actual amount of sleep. In Coros, there is no ability to edit. Additionally, if for example you forget to hit the stop button when you finish a run a hike, or a ride, and your watch continues to add the time to the activity, there is no ability to go in and trim this off. Thus all of the associated metrics will be way off. To me this should be easy changes that Coros should fix. Overall I'm very happy with the watch and OBTW, it is just a phenomenal value. I was able to get this watch for about $100 less than I paid for my Garmin Instinct 4 years ago!"
