![]() However, when placed side by side you can spot the singular external difference – which is the slightly larger screen on the new APEX 2 Pro, which is 1.3”, versus the APEX 2 base unit at 1.2”. They’ve got near-identical bodies, and both come with fabric sport bands. With that – let’s begin! What’s New, and How They Differ:Īt a glance from more than a few meters away, you’d be hard-pressed to tell the difference between the COROS APEX 2 and APEX 2 Pro. ![]() If you found this review useful, feel free to hit up the links at the end of the site, or consider becoming a DCR Supporter. Both units are media loaners from COROS, and as usual, they’ll get sent back to them once I wrap up here. I’ve been putting both watches through their paces, in a variety of sports from swim to bike to run, plus of course daily usage as a general watch/activity tracker. The APEX 2 Pro comes in at $499, whereas the base APEX 2 slides in at $399, but lacks the multiband GPS and larger battery life, and has a slightly smaller screen. It also includes a battery life of up to 75 hours depending on the mode (25 hours for multiband usage though). The 1.3” screen COROS APEX 2 Pro includes a revamped optical heart rate sensor, adds multiband GNSS/GPS, adds music storage for MP3s (no streaming service), includes offline maps, touchscreen, WiFi, and HRV readings. It has virtually all the same software features as the more expensive Vertix 2. Ultimately, COROS sees these two models (APEX 2 Pro vs Vertix 2) differentiated by style/materials, more so than software. The new APEX 2 series is best viewed through the lens of being a smaller VERTIX 2 (released one year ago). ![]() And to make things even more fun – I’ve been wearing both watches side by side (well, on opposite wrists) just to see how they handle and differ. Thus, I’ve gone with one consolidated review. While I had considered doing entirely separate reviews for both of these, the reality is they’re virtually identical watches same some minor internal spec differences. Let glue dry.Today COROS has announced the long-teased COROS APEX 2 series watches, including both a base model and a Pro model. Apply wood glue to end of dowel and place in wood round. Screw in the screw eye with the rope attached to the wood round, and the other screw eye in the top of the dowel. Tie one end of the rope around one screw eye and the other end around the snap hook (if you need help figuring out the best way to tie a knot – check out this video). Determine how long your rope will need to be, it will need to fit around the number of floats you’ll stack (ours is 70″). ![]() Drill one hole in the side of the wood round and one hole in the top of the dowel. ![]() Drill a one inch hole in the center of the wood round. Pool floats forever! Have you guys noticed all the silly, crazy floats available this swim season?!
