@djdn7687 Год назад

Nice, bro. Thanks for that great review 😊 Looks like it really makes sense for me to switch from Fenix 6 Sapphire to Apex 2 pro

@philnichols4680 Год назад

As usual- another quality review, Des! All the important questions answered, but still concise and snappy! For my use, the new features aren’t worth the upgrade from the Pace 2, although the HRV functions are appealing. Thanks!

Thanks Phil and also appreciate sharing your feedback!

@timothywright320 Год назад

I love that Coros is stepping in the right direction, but I am kinda put off by the price of the Apex 2. I was hoping for it to be $350 especially since it doesn't have Multiband GPS but I understand why it's $400

@hyree Год назад

Hi Des. Is there a phone music control feature on either? Not onboard offline music, not Spotify app, just pure "pause play skip volume" remote for the phone.

@bobf.8403 Год назад

Thanks Des, Enjoyed your review. I am an Apex Pro and Vertix user. I would be interested in knowing how the Apex 2 Pro GPS accuracy compares to the original Apex Pro. That sort of determines whether I upgrade. I use a Polar HR strap since my Apex Pro wrist HR is mostly crap. But I have found the Apex Pro GPS accuracy to be pretty darn good in Oregon. So I would be curious to see if the new chips set is better. All the best.

@jerryshi8477 Год назад

A Chinese blogger compared the hear rate accuracy of Garmin 955 (use Garmin HR strap) and Apex 2 pro. The result shows that the average heart rate and maximum heart rate were the same.

@TheSloanlogic Год назад

How is the new screen with the fonts and the sapphire glass? I have the pace 2 and it’s very easy to see. I found the original apex pro to be a bit hard to read in certain conditions. Is that Apex pro 2 screen better and easier to read vs the Original apex pro?

@HereNobody-tl1bb Год назад

nice explanation bro. but can you help me to choose between garmin instinct 2 solar or coros apex 2, most of my activities are hiking, bikepacking and bike touring. what I'm looking for is solid hardware and software, GPS accuracy and battery life. one side garmin offers solar power and power manager but don't like the screen and coros has ok hardware but one side on the software side there is something lacking in my opinion

@jes1910 Год назад

How was the real time pace on both watch? Does it still has 10secs delay (w/o POD2)?

@alexdibenedetto9605 Год назад

I'm 50 and my eyes are needing the readers. Is the screen without the backlight on the new apex any brighter than the old apex without backlight?

Great video! I have a question: Coros Apex 2 VS Garmin Venu 3? Im looking at both of these and cant decide! Which one of these two have better heart rate accuracy and better GPS? Does the Venu 3 even have maps at all?? Any feedback would be really appricated!

@AbcDef-dk3ok 5 месяцев назад

Go for the Coros Apex 2. Venu doesn't even have navigation.

@emre_murat Год назад

Thanks for the detailed, perfect review 👍 I am trying to decide a watch for open water swimming + runing. Coros Apex 2 Pro and Garmin 955 are in my short list. Which do you recommend ? Or another one with similar functionality ? Thanks in advance 🙋🏻‍♂️

@brandongittelman Год назад

Fantastic having a review already! In your honest opinion, do you think the regular Apex is worth it vs the FR955? I love the metal build and smaller size/weight, but I'm torn because although I love my Pace 2, it's hard to argue that Garmin has a more complete ecosystem, especially as an Edge owner as well and the latest Garmin's have fixed the battery life issues I had with my older Fenix 5 and old FR's.

@DesFit Год назад

It's kind of a toss up in terms of software features vs materials. Already having an Edge bike computer should factor into the decision as you mentioned though as it can be more convenient to have everything in one app. But I can't deny that the materials used on the Apex 2 are quite nice!

@Anthony-dq7yb Год назад

would love to see a comparison of the new FR965 and Apex 2 Pro

@youpigirl5731 Год назад

Dommage que l'on n'ai pas le choix d'avoir un écran saphyr. Je n'aime pas, je ne vois rien. J'aurais préféré avoir un écran classique et mettre un film protecteur. Car qui fait du "tout terrain" avec sa montre ? Je soupconne une manière de commercialiser plus cher car écran saphyr. Sinon j'utilise Coros Apex pro au quotidien, j'ai délaissé Garmin. Ma montre est la seule à capter aussi rapidement le signal GPS et j'adore leur plateforme

I am still awaiting Your Suunto 9 Peak Pro review, is it not coming? And plz no more Apple Ultra reviews. Thank for a Good Channel 😊

@Kmasse8 Год назад

Also considering Suunto 9 Peak Pro which is very thin watch with superb battery life and clean interface. Think the only negative I can think of is the less brighter screen. Apex 2, Apple Ultra are thick watches so I wouldnt be comfortable with those.

@vadimvol83 Год назад

Hi, hope you can help me with my question please - I'm using 955 and last 2w started to train cycling, why I can't see VO2 max for that, only for running? Thanks in advnace.

@DesFit Год назад

To get VO2 max for cycling on the 955 (or any other Garmin) you need to have a cycling power meter paired.

Hello! I'm in between the Garmin Instinct Solar 2, the new Coros Apex 2 and the Coros Apex Pro. The cheaper one in my area is the Instinct. I want the watch for hiking, trail running, occasionally city running, pool swimming and "tourist walking." Would you give me your opinion, please?

@cartervepley2143 Год назад

I’m currently having the exact same debate. I ordered both the Instinct 2s and the Apex 2 so I could see which I like better in person. Did you end up buying one?

@MB-ig8oz Год назад

should I buy the apex 2 or get the old apex pro at a discount. From the review besides the new heart rate sensor and music i cannot seem to find any significant upgrade. My concern remains whether the apex pro will get outdated with no software updates . What do you advice.

@mikem4215 Год назад

Apex pro “should” continue to get firmware updates as long as storage space is available. Have an apex pro as well and waiting it out pending when they stop the updates.

@jozefgubka511 Год назад

The bezel on the "base" model looks rather unattractive. I kind of prefered the first gen models. Glad I got a Forerunner 255 in August though. That one is made of plastic, but does pretty much the same as these two, looks better (in my view), and for less.

Yes, when paired with a cycling power meter

@DesFit Год назад

There is no way for a watch to detect power output from your legs for cycling, so you need a cycling power meter paired to do so. This is the same with any watch or bike computer.

The reason there is no ANT+ is because Garmin own that and it has to be leased for each new product, and im guessing Garmin put the price up a large amount
