PACE 3 GPS Sport Watch –Lightweight, Comfortable Running Watch, 17-Day Battery Life, Accurate GPS, Heart Rate Monitor, Navigation, Sleep Tracking, Training Plan, Run - Chalk Nylon

This watch continues to impress me with how lightweight (under 40 g) and comfortable it is—perfect for long runs and all-day wear. The dual-frequency GPS locks on quickly and stays accurate, even in dense tree cover or urban environments. Battery life is stellar too—I get over a week of daily use or nearly 30 hours with GPS tracking before needing a charge. The display is clear, bright, and easy to navigate, and the activity profiles (running, biking, skiing, etc.) are well-supported. It feels like a premium training watch without the premium price. One feature I've genuinely missed is a “distance today” widget. Apparently it’s not currently available—users have pointed out on Coros forums and Reddit that the watch doesn’t track daily walking or “distance traveled” like you’d expect

I am delighted with this watch. Recommended by Chat GPT over Garmin and Apple Ultra 2 ( I tried it and return it because it is not only expensive, inaccurate and HUGE for sports) This watch is a pleasure to wear, lightweight, accurate, reliable, comfortable, the data is amazing. I use it 24/7, charges very fast and the battery life is insane. Very happy. Not easy to find a good sport watch for swimming, specially for open ocean swimming!

I love my Coros watch. This is my second. It arrived promptly and works great.

I love the long battery life, it really does last almost 2 weeks, even after owning it for 6months. GPS is very good, no cutting corners on the data when turning. Watch is small and light. App gets the job done. HR seems pretty good. Step counter seems good. Satillite syncing before an activity is pretty quick. All if it is better than my previous Garmin Vivoactive 3. My only complaint is the charging cord is finicky. I contacted support and they sent a new cord, but still has issues. It'll stop charging depending how the watch is setting on the table. It fully charges in like 90min and good for another 2 weeks.

Long story short: I am really really happy with this product. A few things I'd change. -- I am running my first ever half marathon this coming April. I have about 5-6 years experience with running but have never done more to track my runs than use my stopwatch on the timer app and Google Maps, both on my phone. Prior to my training for the half, I knew I needed something more reliable, more responsible, and more accurate than just my phone. I did my research and talked to my friends and family who are runners about the type of exercise watch I should buy that is accurate and benefits my training and how to change and help myself. Of course I saw Garmin, Apple, Samsung, and other massively known brands, but I was reading similar negative things about each of them. Their accuracy. That is when I landed on the Coros Pace 3. Everything you need to know about your running is here. Using the watch, choose what workout you are doing, and that is it. The watch does everything for you. Once you have completed the workout, go to the app. Now is when the real magic happens. It shows you your times (Activity Time, Avg. Pace, Avg. Effort Pace, Best Mile, Avg. Heart Rate, Calories, Elev. Gain, Running Performance, Training Load) in the first section. This is the best way to quickly understand your ultimate time and how much you are pushing yourself. This watch will tell you how a run impacts your Aerboic TE (how your body improves physically while training). I will say, some of the verbiage used is a little above my knowledge. So, it may take some time to research each section so that you know what each means and how you can work from it and continue to progress. It tells you your Cadence, Running Power, Stride Length, and more. When you're not running, and want to use it as a typical watch, there are hundreds of watch faces to choose from. It took me about 2 weeks of playing around with different ones to find the one that I loved, which I have now been using for the last 4 months. On the face it tells you time, BPM, calories burned, activity time, steps, elevation, date (mm/dd/year), and battery life. Battery Life: IT IS INSANE!! On 2%, it takes about 40-50 minutes to charge to 100%. On 100%, using it for a workout 4 times/week, the battery lasts for up to 10 days. When not working out during the week, it can last up to 2 weeks. It is crazy. Probably one of the best things I like about the watch. WHAT I WOULD CHANGE: The interface. The notifications I get from my phone pop up on my watch and the text seems like what I would get on my Blackberry in 2010. It gets the job done, but the notification text could use a change. Screen. It is a little dim at times. You can not change the brightness of the watch. When in a dark area, it will go black, but if you're in a dim-light area, it will still be on, but very hard to see. You have to click one of the buttons to unlock it and is then better to see. That's just me. Music. You cannot use Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, or Soundcloud on your watch. You have to download an MP3 of a song and put it on the file when plugged into your computer. It is a pain, but I figured out how to do it and stick to 3 1-hr playlists each time. That's it. I will say the accuracy of the BPM, Stress Levels, Steps, and Calories Burned is immaculate. I have tested this while using certified machinery to track these levels, and the watch has been 1-2 points around what the test is showing. This has been a lot, but I hope it helps. Overall it is very accurate, benefits me and what I was looking for in a watch. The pros DEFINITELY outweigh the cons.

After doing way more research than I should have on the best watch for triathlon training, I coincidentally ran into an article that raved about the 2023 version of this watch even while mentioning its shortcomings. Then I found another article raving again about the enhancements made to their 2024 model and that it was a no brainer for those of us non-professionals that are also on a budget and want wearable tech with features we will use rather than a bunch we won’t. Only thing I would mention, you’ll see other reviews saying the same thing so I knew ahead of my purchase, is that the display is a bit on the darker side BUT it’s true that in full sun it’s ironically easier to read because of it. If you’re training AND in the market for wearable tech you will not be disappointed in this 2024 model; strongly consider bundling their branded heart monitor before checking out, it’s a game changer even if you can’t wear it for swim workouts. The data it gives is invaluable Update Nov 2024: The battery life on the watch and the HR monitor are just astonishing! The watch charge is well over a week on average and the HR monitor is the same with consistent use 6 days a week (workouts include running, cycling), watch only during swim workouts. For those using the run:walk (galloway) method to train, you can absolutely use the intervals function to set up your workouts.

This watch does exactly what I need it to consistently. The battery life has been amazing with daily wear and regular activities. Very light on the wrist. The screen isnt out of this world, but I have no issues seeing and navigating it when I need to.

Estou adorando, está me ajudando muito nos meus treinos.

Zeer uitgebreide horloge tevreden er mee.

amazing watch! very accurate and good long lasting battery, very satisfied with the quality and build.

Utilizzo il Coros Pace 3 da 12 giorni e posso dire che per la corsa è semplicemente perfetto. Faccio 4 allenamenti a settimana e lo tengo sempre collegato al telefono: la batteria dura tranquillamente 12 giorni, senza doverlo ricaricare. Il GPS è preciso, i dati sono chiari e affidabili, e l'orologio è comodissimo al polso. In più, il rapporto qualità/prezzo è davvero eccellente: a questo prezzo, non c'è nulla di meglio per chi corre. Consigliatissimo a chi cerca un orologio sportivo serio, leggero e con un'autonomia da paura.

GPS e durata della batteria strepitosi, per un orologio entry level
