History
In 2014, COROS was founded in China.[4] Lewis Wu came on as CEO in 2018.[5]
The company launched its first GPS watch - The PACE Multisport GPS Watch in 2018.[2] The watch had a built-in first-of-its-kind dedicated 'Track Mode' designed for track runners to get accurate pace, distance, and time data – where GPS tracking had originally failed.[6][7][8][9]
Later that year, the company released two new watches, the APEX Premium Multisport Watch, in two sizes; 42mm, 46mm.[10][11][12][13][14]
In 2020, COROS launched PACE 2 - the lightest GPS watch at that moment - and announced partnerships with Eliud Kipchoge, Emma Coburn, and Des Linden.[15]
In November 2022, COROS launched the Apex 2 and Apex 2 Pro GPS watches.[16][17] In August 2023, COROS launched PACE 3.[18] In October 2024, COROS launched PACE Pro.[19]
In May 2025, COROS introduced the COROS Launch Repair Program, allowing customers to replace parts for selected COROS wearables, such as the battery, dial, screen and buttons.[20]
