COROS has a well-established name in the world of smartwatches at this point, with focused feature-sets that span well beyond the time-tested standards of running and general training. Their Pace line is designed for running, their Apex for mountain sports, and their Vertix line for climbing disciplines. The latest addition to the company’s lineup launches today with the new COROS Nomad.
COROS’ Press Release for the new Nomad:
Featuring dual-frequency navigation and a variety of outdoor sport modes, including 8 different fishing modes, this rugged and refined watch helps hikers, climbers, and anglers stay safely on route and aware in realtime with on-device weather, safety alerts, and global mapping. Plus, a new “Adventure Journaling” feature lets outdoor enthusiasts use voice commands, tag locations, add photos, and transcribe voice-to-text memos—all within an activity, making it easy to catalogue and relive the moments worth remembering in detail. NOMAD captures your best outdoor memories, like a digital journal or scrapbook.
COROS Nomad Feature Overview:
- Dual-frequency GPS, global maps with street names, waypoints, and save locations are all
powered by a new Gen 3 processor for faster, more responsive mapping. - Using the new “Adventure Journal” feature, record voice notes, upload photos and videos to each
