But I have to say, as we worked through the testing phases and they made the required adjustments to the firmware, this new watch is very good indeed. The reviews on YouTube this week have also been very complimentary, too.

That was the thing I was most impressed with throughout the testing. I compared it along side a Garmin HRM and a Coros arm HRM, connected to my Apex 2 and it was very consistent. I think I probably called that out repeatedly as impressive during my feedback. Even saying I'd be perfectly comfortable running without an external HRM at all.

I used to use it to turn on or off the HR alarm during a run, but I updated firmware and it appears to have disappeared (Apex 2). There must be a way to change the alerts without stopping the run?

Hmmm, certainly looks like it. Worth raising a query via support or via the Facebook page, traggibg @Coros support

But once there, it was impressively level.
