APEX 2 Pro

I went from Pixel Watch 2 to Apex 2 Pr. You give up assistant is the big thing but get battery life in return which is way better because I only have to charge one or twice a month vs every day so I was rarely tracking my sleep because I had to charge every night.

I feel like Coros is almost there. Flashlight for sure is coming in a future watch (probably Vertix 4, then will trickle down to at least Apex 5). Design is obviously highly subjective, but I agree that Suunto has a cool design. However, I‘m digging the design of the Nomad and also the clean look of the Pace 4. Regarding more data in the web plattform or app. I‘m also very confident that they will add more stuff over time. Overall, going with Coros seems to be the best choice and it will only get better.

It's fantastic, using it regularly for mountain biking, hiking, climbing. Kinda like the styling and doesn't shout "coros" on the dial like the apex series. It's very light.

This is not the point. It was mentioned here that coros does "no Feature lock" if the hardware can support the feature. And this is not true. Touring mode is another example. Bouldering as well. And yes some people want to do touring or bouldering with a pace, why not!? But again the point is that Coros is doing feature lock. Personally I do not miss the fishing mode on my Apex.

Congratulations! I had Forerunner 255 and it was my first Garmin. I love that watch and miss it from time to time. High value, have all the features you need, it has gpx navigation in breadcrumb line form, great battery life, and it's very light on the wrist. I have never experienced inaccurate HR, no cadence lock, and it keeps up with the HR changes. You might try to wear it higher on your wrist and tighten the strap. I also had Coros Apex, that one was all over the place. Often cadence lock, and often late to keep up with HR changes.
