And a built-in LED flashlight, which you'll appreciate the first time you're sorting gear at 4am or finishing a descent in the dark.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTough where it counts\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eRock gullies, sidehilling through slide alder, a full day of Coast Mountain rain — the Vertical 2 handles it.

The original Race was a strong watch that didn't quite stick the landing on software. The Race 2 fixes most of that: the display is now one of the brightest 1.5\" AMOLED screens on any GPS watch, the navigation is genuinely practical with full offline topo maps, every feature is available at purchase with no subscription required, and the H1 2026 firmware added automatic transitions, HR broadcast to bike computers, pool drill sets, and support for duathlon, aquathlon, and swimrun as default modes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eBattery life is the headline number: 40 hours in GPS mode with the screen on, which is what actually matters on a long alpine day. Better Trail tested 15 hours of continuous GPS use with the screen on the whole time and came out at 56% battery, which tracks. Four presets cover performance through ultra modes, and the watch surfaces them every time you start an activity rather than burying them in menus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere it sits in the category:\u003c\/strong\u003e better display and offline maps than the Coros Apex 4, more competitive price than the Garmin Forerunner 970, no music storage or contactless payment. It's mid-pack on raw GPS, which is worth knowing if that's your priority.
