I recently switched from a Coros Pace 2 to a Garmin Fenix 7 Pro Saphire Solar and absolutely love it. Feels much more substantial than the Coros and battery life is awesome. The Coros battery life had severely degraded over the last 6 months.
If you do any treadmill running, Coros handles those better. The Pod 2 is quite accurate, and if you chose to enter the treadmill distance at the end of a run Coros recalculates the distance/pace for all your splits. Garmin only modifies the total distance for calibrations made after ending your run.
same coros pace 2 from 2021. A little less battery and coros stopped firmware updates. But it is a great watch. I use it for swimming, indoor cycling and strength training. It is my daily driver , I sleep with it to track sleep and use the vibrating alarm to wake me up and not my wife.
When it dies I plan on getting the pace pro.
I loved my coros pace 2. It was prettier than my garmin instinct 2, which i just got because I cracked the screen of the coros watch. I thought about replacing with the pace 3, but it was the second time in 4 years that the screen got cracked.
