The Coros Vertix 2 outdoor watch impresses with a solid design, a razor-sharp display, a long battery life and very good usability, but is quite clunky

It is easy to use straight away and ensures frustration-free enjoyment during daily use. Added to this are the impressive features and many useful functions that combine to form a practically designed package.

With the Coros watch, the required maps are selected using a corresponding grid in the corresponding smartphone app and transferred to the watch via Wi-Fi, which is quite fast. The memory is also sufficient for extensive map packages
