Coros Pace 4 Smartwatch

At 32 grams with a nylon band, the Coros Pace 4 weighs less than an energy gel. The Jakob Ingebrigtsen edition takes that ultralight platform and adds premium materials and details inspired by the Olympic champion's two gold medals in the 1500m and 5000m.

The watch itself is a serious training tool regardless of the branding. A 1.2 inch AMOLED touchscreen with 164% higher resolution than the Pace 3 delivers sharp, readable data in any lighting condition. Auto adjusting brightness handles everything from pre dawn runs to direct sunlight. The 11.8mm profile keeps it low on the wrist, and the combination of a tactile digital crown, two physical buttons, and the touchscreen means you can control it at pace without fumbling.

Battery life is the number that matters most for endurance athletes and the Pace 4 delivers. 41 hours of continuous GPS in all systems mode and up to 19 days of daily use. That covers the heaviest training blocks without needing a charger mid week.

The built in microphone is the new feature worth paying attention to. Voice recording lets you capture training logs and notes at the end of an activity or drop voice pins mid run to mark moments, locations, or how you felt at a specific point. Voice control handles setting alarms, creating target workouts, and other quick commands. It adds a layer of documentation that typing on a watch screen never delivered.

Training tools include Running Fitness tracking, Race Predictor, Virtual Pacer, personalised marathon plans, VO2 max, lactate threshold estimation, and a workout builder. The Coros app ties it all together with recovery time, sleep stages, HRV monitoring, and menstrual cycle tracking.
 

The Ingebrigtsen edition gets an aluminium bezel with a matte gold finish engineered to resist sweat and weather. A transparent crystal crown reveals a gold pin securing the dial to the body. The nylon band is woven with golden yarn using a jacquard technique, with "FEARLESS" on the exterior and a subtle track lane pattern on the reverse side.
