Coros has just launched the Apex 4, a smartwatch it says is purpose-built for mountain sports. The device comes with a range of new features, including a new design, improved GPS algorithms, longer battery life, and more. Coros has also added an upgraded processor and satellite chipset, bringing improved performance that might help it compete with some of the best running watches on the market.

Writing in a press release , Coros said the new wearable delivers incredible battery life, precision GPS, and a lightning-fast mapping experience, all in
a lightweight, premium, and durable build.

Starting with the design, this encompasses grade 5 titanium with sapphire glass and a Memory-In-Pixel (MIP) display. The battery now lasts up to 65 hours with the All-Systems GPS (46mm) model or up to 41 hours in the 42mm version, giving you plenty of juice when youre running or hiking out on the trail.

On the software side, Coross GPS algorithms have been updated to give you
more accurate route-planning during workouts. Map details such as street names and topographic aspects now render much faster, and there are
dedicated modes for trail running, climbing, and ski touring, plus advanced training, sleep, recovery, and readiness insights. Built for mountain sports (Image credit: Coros)

The Apex is one of Coross top-end sports wearables, and past entries have earned praise and strong reviews from TechRadar. With the Apex 4, Coros is hoping that it can continue that trend.

The company says the Apex 4 is designed specifically for mountain sports, including trail running, climbing and ski touring. That means several of its features are geared towards these activities, including 3D terrain views,
fall detection, live weather data, and more.

Coros has launched the Apex 4 in two sizes: a 46mm model and a 42mm version. The former starts at $479, while the latter costs $429. Theyre both available now from Coross website and third-party retailers.
