Coros watches have much less functionality than Garmin, but all the features they have focused on training and performance work very well.
One of them is very simple but very useful, and is that the watch calculates what is our threshold pace so we can create workouts by pace. Something so easy, simple and common that it is terrible that Garmin does not have it implemented.
The calculation of the threshold pace is quite simple, it is usually 10 seconds slower than the pace of a 10k race. That can be calculated perfectly by the watch and set several zones as it does with power. Useful, simple and very accurate.
On the other hand, it has already been mentioned in several posts the failures in the heart rate zones, which is incredible that after two months is not fixed. Garmin has no forgiveness.
Today I did a lactate threshold test guided by the watch.
The result was 150 bpm at 4:42.
I then set the data on the watch to use the zones according to lactate threshold and things didn't go well. Zone 4 (100% to 105% = 150ppm to 158ppm) and zone 5 (+ of 105%). On the next run that was all wrong.
On the coros watches the lactate threshold is better configured and more predictive to set (plus it works, not like the problem with Garmin that has been with it for two months).
How hard is it for a company like Garmin to do this and make things right?
