more Coros Apex 4 Leaked Details e.g. Dual Range Barometer !

More: Coros Apex 4 Review Thanks to u/InternationalMine660 for the composite image below showing some of the new high-level specs for the upcoming Coros Apex 4. I'll go through each, one-by-one, and add what I think. Please add anything I've missed below. It's a bit of an odd image, though. A more detailed map is self-explanatory, I suppose. Coros maps are not super detailed, but I'm not entirely sure they will benefit much from adding more detail; they already do the job. More detail might cause readability issues on the smaller model. Dual-range barometer—this is a new phrase to me. It sounds like Coros incorporates two sensors, once focused at high precision over short ranges—useful when going up stairs or walking up a hill. A second one would react better over a larger range without needing GPS correction. I could see that it might be useful for rappelling, skydiving, rapid descending when cycling, or maybe hot air ballooning when rising. This seems like a feature-too-far for me. 30x faster maps and graphics - Coros is already pretty decent with screen rendering and shames Garmin. Rightly so. If they've made the screen render faster, that's great...taking it to unnecessary refreshing levels! That said, I've used cheap watches like the Amazfit T-Rex 3 Pro, which has excellent screen rendering, and you notice it in events like swiping between pages. In my opinion, it adds to the usability experience but isn't strictly necessary for a sports watch. We have confirmation of the two case sizes and battery lives: 41 hours (42mm) and 65 hours (46mm). That's presumably dual frequency GNSS w/AOD. Vertical GPS Algorithms—This is probably linked to the dual-range barometer and confirms my suspicion that this is a climbing-related feature. GPS - Precision that holds true - Maybe they've got an even better GNSS chip? Garmin's Synaptics is the best, in my opinion. (I spent a decade saying how awful Garmin's GPS accuracy was, so I think you have to trust me when I say it's now the best!) Record Voice Pins - This sounds like a Garmin feature (?) where you can record and attach a voice note to a GPS point. This presumably will sync within the Coros ecosystem (ahem). But the real trick would be how this might get sent to other platforms in a FIT file. I don't know if that is possible, cool if so. I guess that also means confirmation of a decent microphone and speaker. Hands-free calls—don't get excited. These are connected calls. You are within range of your smartphone, but the speaker and mic may still have relatively poor audio quality and volume. APEX 4s 3rd Generation—This confirms the name of the smaller case size as "Coros Apex 4s." I suppose '3rd generation' refers to the fact that this should have been called Apex THREE, but, for some reason, wasn't. If you factor in pro versions, there's probably a semantic argument against what I just said there.
