help Coros Vertix 2S FAQ
How long does the Coros Vertix 2S battery last with GPS running?
Coros rates the Vertix 2S for up to 118 hours in standard GPS mode and 43 hours using dual-frequency satellite tracking. Navigation, music, backlight use, temperature, and other settings can reduce those figures.
What improved from the Vertix 2 to the Vertix 2S?
The Vertix 2S introduced a redesigned GPS antenna and a newer optical heart-rate sensor. It retains the 1.4-inch sapphire touchscreen, titanium bezel, offline maps, and 10 ATM water-resistance rating of the Vertix 2.
Can the Coros Vertix 2S navigate without a phone signal?
Yes, it can store offline maps and follow routes without cellular service. It supports checkpoints, deviation alerts, back-to-start guidance, and touchscreen map controls, although routes and map regions should be prepared before entering remote terrain.
Is the Coros Vertix 2S suitable for diving?
Its 10 ATM rating makes it suitable for swimming and surface-water activities, but Coros does not present it as a dive computer. Divers need a device designed to track depth, decompression, gases, and other underwater safety data.
