    Tom's GuideHands-on review · 2026

    The best watch in Coros's range and a cheaper rival to the Forerunner 970, matching it on accuracy and beating it on battery.

    DC RainmakerNo printed score · Hands-on review · 2026

    It looks and feels premium with a brilliant display and decent GPS, but real-world workout battery falls well short of claims and the price jump over cheaper Coros models is hard to justify.
