COROS APEX 4 GPS makes its Malaysian debut

The COROS APEX 4 GPS Watch debuts in Malaysia as COROS’company’s next-generation flagship device tailored specifically for mountain sports enthusiasts and adventurers who require uncompromising performance.

The central design philosophy behind the APEX 4 emphasizes an incredible battery life, coupled with high-precision GPS technology and a remarkably fast, zero-lag mapping experience.

This potent combination is housed within a lightweight, durable, and premium build, designed to be the ultimate companion for long treks, alpine climbing, and multi-day expeditions where reliability is paramount.

The construction of the APEX 4 features an uncompromising Alpine-Grade Design intended to withstand the most challenging environmental conditions.

The watch utilizes lightweight Grade 5 titanium for the bezel, providing superior strength and reduced weight on the wrist, complemented by reinforced lugs for increased strap security.

For protection, the screen is topped with highly scratch-resistant sapphire glass. The use of a Memory-In-Pixel display ensures optimal visibility, delivering clear, legible data and map graphics even under bright, direct sunlight—a critical feature for mountain environments.

One of the most significant upgrades lies in the APEX 4’s navigational capabilities, which introduce an ultra-precise tracking system built for complex terrain.

It incorporates enhanced Vertical GPS Algorithms, which are crucial for accurately measuring vertical distance and tracking progress on steep, vertical alpine walls and climbing routes.

Additionally, the inclusion of dual-frequency tracking maintains signal accuracy even when the line of sight to the sky is obstructed by thick forests, deep canyons, or urban environments. This sophisticated system works in tandem with a dual-range barometer to deliver reliable altitude data and real-time weather trend information.

Mapping and route guidance have been completely overhauled to eliminate common frustrations. The APEX 4 boasts an impressive zero-lag mapping experience, enabling the device to render global topographic and landscape maps instantly without frustrating delays.

This performance upgrade drastically improves the user experience during high-stakes navigation. Core navigational tools include intuitive turn-by-turn navigation, the display of key Points of Interest (POIs), and clear identification of street and trail names, ensuring adventurers can stay on course with ease.

Beyond navigation, the watch functions as a comprehensive training and recovery tool.

It offers dedicated, complex sport-specific modes designed for activities such as trail running, climbing, and ski touring, gathering data relevant to each discipline.

Furthermore, the APEX 4 tracks advanced metrics—including Heart Rate Variability (HRV), SpO2 (blood oxygen saturation), sleep patterns, and training load—to provide users with detailed insights into their overall recovery and athletic readiness.

Adding to the usability are built-in audio tools, featuring a speaker and microphone, which allow for audible pace and turn alerts, hands-free calling, and the ability to record voice notes on the go.

In terms of specifications, the COROS APEX 4 is available in two case sizes: 46mm and 42mm.

Highlights

The primary headline specification is the exceptional battery life, even when running intensive GPS modes.

The larger 46mm model is rated for up to 65 hours of continuous use in All-Systems GPS mode, while the more compact 42mm version achieves up to 41 hours under the same conditions.

Both models feature the high-grade titanium and sapphire construction, powered by an upgraded processor and a new satellite chipset for faster performance and stronger signal strength.
