First COROS Pace with AMOLED — a vivid 1.2" touchscreen in a 32g nylon-band body, making it the lightest AMOLED GPS running watch at this price.
16 more GPS hours than the Pace 3, with 19 days typical use. Best-in-class battery life for a sub-$250 AMOLED GPS running watch.
Dual-frequency L1+L5 GPS for precise tracking in cities and trails, plus built-in voice pin recording and audio lap alerts — new for the Pace line.
Turn-by-turn navigation on full TopoActive maps — essential for trail running and mountain racing.
