And make sure to check out the in-depth review of the Eliud Kipchoge PACE 2 that you can view here: ruclips.net/video/rjYUIqN92HE/видео.html Thanks for watching, folks!
I felt confident to buy a Vertix thanks to your review.. and it's an awesome watch. I never thought I would use another thing other than Garmin... I was so wrong... Looking forward to try this new one.... great video...
You have to give them credit for actually including on board maps... Still not a patch on the Fenix series capability wise.... But its awesome that Garmin may get some competition in the near future regarding mapping. Great review as always : -) 👍
Thanks for this review. Now I have a bigger problem with choosing a sports watch :D Is it worth waiting for fenix 7? What do you think about the coros platform?
I only trust your reviews for fitness watches and I'm just curious whether you have plans for reviewing the galaxy watch 4. I mean it isn't really a "fitness watch" but just curious! Thank you
Don't you have a plan to review samsung galaxy watch 4? I wonder if the heartrate sensor got advanced or not! Your sincere reviews are always helpful. Thanks! :)
Your reviews have kept me busy lately! Trying to decide on a lower cost but respectable watch for use with backpacking/fast packing and basic running. What would your recommendation be?
How do you change the features on the watch faces? For example many display steps, cal, HR and alt. Is there a way to change these metrics. For example on the Topo watch face it displays altitude, in your review it displayed calories. Thanks for the great review, new to Coros from the Fenix.
same price with Fenix 6x pro....no ant+ and no support like spotify (guess the license fees for these held them back) ..so why buy at all?just a new gadget? battery life? With these weaknesses and a price of 700, coros makes life much easier for Fenix, because now they dont have to work too much on Fenix 7....
Garmin is loosing its moat. Enduro for 800 w/o a sapphire glass, no touch screen…. The good thing for the customers is that Garmin will not be able to charge more than 699 for the Fenix 7
@@todortodorov2434 competition is always good, especially for us customers....but here I see a pattern, like Nike introduced 200+ dollar carbon shoes, and now almost all carbon plates are around 200$....Iphone made the first 1000$ phone, and now all brands' flagships are around or more than 1000$....garmin broke the 500$ limit and now the others easily price their products above those prices....this is not competition, premium prices and the hope to get a piece from a growing market.... (on this case Garmin still has the edge with spotify, pay, solar thing, better maps, interchangeable faces and tons of apps)
How well does this display compare will the Fenix 6? I have the Fenix 5x, and really like it. A higher contrast indoor display would be nice. Curious how the coroa compares to Fenix in that department?
Great video. any idea of the scale of the topographic contours. Is it like 1:100,000 or more like a quad map at 1:24:000. Just curious what level of detail they show. thanks,
If you have 2 Coros watches say the Vertix 2 and the Pace 2, do they both sync seamlessly with EvoLab or will the watches act like you are only working out as much as you do when wearing the respective watches? Can see the benefit potentially of having one light watch for short runs and one big watch with maps and longer life as long as they both show the same fitness metrics at the same time...
I am looking for a smart watch which can have following features Rugged look like g shocks Solar Speaker N replying to text n whatsapp Any suggestions?
No ANT+ rendered the Vertix 2 dead on arrival. This watch was suppose to be my ticket out of the Garmin ecosystem. But of course. Just like Suunto and Polar; Coros figured the lack of ANT+ made this watch better. Please tell me Coros. How can I pair my power meter to my iPad and your Veritix 2 at the same time. Oh, I know! 🤔 Just keep using my Garmin forerunner 945. 😂🤣 You gave this watch just about everything. Even touch screen so I can navigate the maps better. It really destroyed the Fenix 6 pro. Sure, no Spotify or Amazon Music etc. But I can live without that. But really. What were you thinking about when you decided to not add ANT+ support!!!!? Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!
Their focus is definitely running but also have a lot of features for other outdoor sports like rock climbing, downhill skiing, and backcountry skiing. Oh, and they just came out with a jump rope activity profile.
I have a Fenix 6S Pro and would buy the same again having seen this review. There’s a few critical faults that I couldn’t overlook; maps definitely need labels, no ANT+ and it’s way too big for my skinny wrists. Sure the battery life is great but it would like a dustbin lid on my arm. I’m male with thin arms but it must be off-putting to a lot of females too, ignoring half of the population seems a bad idea. The price doesn’t put me off because it’s the same sort of money I paid for my Fenix, but it doesn’t match the Fenix on features (many that I actually use) so if it was $150 less I still wouldn’t buy because it lacks features that I would want to use.
Good day des... How about a comparo segment between older models, say for example Fenix 3HR vs the recent Fenix models.. just my 2 cents... 🤙 Appreciate all ur vids BTW..
Brother am your great fan of you . please sent me a smartwatch after the review which you getting from the companies. I don't have money to buy a GPS smart watch. Please its my request.
Sorry, but I try to keep the devices around so I can publish update videos like if there are new features with future firmware updates, plus be able to answer any questions about a watch in case I don’t know the answer off the top of my head. Appreciate you tuning in!

Hi.. when are you doing a review on the Samsung galaxy watch 4??
2:35 You're the only person I've seen explain and show landscape vs topo vs hybrid, ty!!!!
Sure thing! Glad it helped!
Great to see other companies pushing Garmin a bit! Love the competition. Thanks for the great video, Des.
Sure thing - thanks!
pushing by ripping off original, yeah, great evaluation of coros business.
I felt confident to buy a Vertix thanks to your review.. and it's an awesome watch. I never thought I would use another thing other than Garmin... I was so wrong... Looking forward to try this new one.... great video...
Thanks Paulo!
Love your channel
Thanks!
After watching Ray’s review I thought I know everything but you succeeded in providing me some extra insights. Thanks!
We have a different take on things so it’s always great to watch both 👍 His video is great! Thanks so much!
Dang Des, that's some thin air up there at almost 11k. Great review and good to see how this watch handles those mountain descents!
I was chugging for air! Thanks Matt!
This hybrid system with buttons and touch screen for maps should come with Fenix 7! All the best, Des :)
It’s a nice interface! Thanks TD!
No.
Amazing, it's first launch than coros channel. 👍🏽🥰

Thanks Sam!
This will be my next watch.
Awesome review - well done
Thanks Hunter! Loving all the CrossFit content!
@@DesFit thanks so much!
Great stuff! I have the first one. Vertix 2 is very tempting.
Thanks! The V2 adds some nice features but the larger case definitely makes a difference in wearability. Thanks Wayne!
@@DesFit I'm seriously considering it. I just have to convince Cindy. LOL Take care! Looking forward to your next review. Stay safe...
Great review. Thanks
Thanks!
Are you gonna make a video on the new galaxy watch 4? Btw great video !👍
Yup, of course! Thanks!
Nice job as always Des. I hope you are not sleep tracking with that beast 🤓
Thanks John! I did sleep with it!
@@DesFit LOL 😁
Congrats. You made me want it.
Brother u r amazing
Thanks!!
Thanks for this review. Now I have a bigger problem with choosing a sports watch :D
Is it worth waiting for fenix 7?
What do you think about the coros platform?
As always top review! Coros becoming Garmin's replica in their design and UI ;)
Thanks!
Great video， fast and good quality，by the way, which device is the green line in gps test
Thanks! Can’t say what that device is at the moment. 🤐
I only trust your reviews for fitness watches and I'm just curious whether you have plans for reviewing the galaxy watch 4. I mean it isn't really a "fitness watch" but just curious! Thank you
Yup, GW4 is coming up soon. Thanks so much!!
when is the galaxy watch 4 review coming out? I'm holding on pre ordering, waiting for your opinion on it.

Yup! Coming soon! Thanks 🙏
Thanks Des
Great video as always
Thanks Carlos!
Thank you so much. I loved this review. Does this watch work well for indoor workouts and can it do automatic activity detection?
It doesn't have any auto recognition - you have to start an activity. What type of indoor workouts would you want to do with it? Thanks!
@@DesFit core/ab workouts, cross fit, weight lighting and general cardio workouts.

So how is Coros able to provide maps but the Suunto Peak doesn’t have them?
Great point
Is there a chance to get NFC payment later in Coros's watches future models?

May have missed but sleep tracking available? Are you able to sleep with watch on or just too big?
How accurate is indoor/treadmill run distance? 🤔
What color do you like more? Or what color looks better in person? I am looking to buy one and I can’t decide the color
Color is all personal preference so whatever matches your style!
LIKE 👌❤💜💛💚💙

Any suggestions?
Huge difference in calories between Vertex 2 and Polar/Garmin, video at 8:21.
COROS only shows active calories, not total calories like the other devices
@@DesFit Thanks for clarifying. Is it possible to change to total calories?
Is the color of the Vertix 2 obsidian? Because obsidian on their website looks brown. Can’t find the black anywhere. Thanks

No ANT+, no buy :(
Do you know if it has save locations?
And does it have a smartphone app where you can view all your workout information?
Yup! You can see those screenshots of the app when I compared the workout summaries.
Would you say coros is still more for runners
Their focus is definitely running but also have a lot of features for other outdoor sports like rock climbing, downhill skiing, and backcountry skiing. Oh, and they just came out with a jump rope activity profile.
Just ordered the vertix 2. Thanks for your help
So Coros Vertix or Garmin 6? I think it's hard to beat the old tried and true Garmin.
"The Great Reset: you'll own nothing and be happy"?!
They obviously were NOT aware the Vertix 2 was about to be released!!
Underrated comment 😂
Just got to wait for the release of the Fenix 7 and the new Apple Watch and then us gheeks will have our fix 🤣
Does the pace 2 have a metronome?
Yup! I'll have a full run-through of the Pace 2 EK edition uploaded later today...Thanks!
Shud i make the switch from 6x Pro Solar?
Dude wheee do you live you get to do so many things outdoors.....
It's unbelievable that vertix2's heart rate is so erratic
I Love you're Channel 💙
I'm waiting for the review of Galaxy Watch 4 🥰
Thanks!
top! is the better!
