Fitness Tracker Showdown: A Comparative Analysis of the Coros Vertix 2S, Garmin Forerunner 965, and Polar Vantage V3

Quick Summary:

I ran, sprinted, and hiked with the top Garmin, Coros, and Polar watches to see which came out on top.Here are the results.

The Forerunner 965 and COROS PACE 3 both did better in my previous elevation test, so I'm not certain if this is a case of Alltrails being off or all three watches "gaining" height when my GPS map drifts off slopes and back onto the path.

COROS gave the VERTIX 2S two key upgrades: a new satellite antenna for better "positioning accuracy in dense city/mountain environments" and an upgraded optical heart rate monitor with more LEDs.
