I’ve tested the Coros Pace 4 Pro vs Coros Pace 4 — is the Pro worth the upgrade?

The Coros Pace 4 and Coros Pace 4 Pro are two of the top sports watches I've tested over the past year. Both devices share identical features, including offline maps and training analysis capabilities, and have demonstrated reliable accuracy during my testing. The main differences between the two models lie in their design, display, battery life, and internal storage.

The Coros Pace 4 Pro boasts a larger, brighter display, a sturdier design with a titanium bezel and sapphire crystal screen, and more internal storage of 32GB compared to the Pace 4's 4GB. This additional storage allows for downloading a more extensive range of maps or music. However, the Pace 4 Pro comes at a higher price point of $449 in the U.S. and £389 in the U.K., compared to the Coros Pace 4's $249/£229 for the standard watch and $279/£249 for the aluminum model.

While both watches offer impressive accuracy in GPS and heart rate monitoring, I found that the Coros Pace 4 Pro's superior design and display make it a more attractive option to wear daily. The larger screen also makes it easier to read stats and view offline maps during activities. Overall, the choice between the Coros Pace 4 and the Coros Pace 4 Pro ultimately depends on personal preferences and budget considerations.
