Refined road-type map displays are also introduced.\u00a0Race Predictor Trends brings a new visual display that better illustrates changes to predicted race times.\u00a0<br \/>Tracking just became a lot easier<br \/>While some of the new Coros features likely won&#8217;t be used by every athlete on a daily basis, each one adds value in its own way nonetheless. At the end of the day, a feature doesn&#8217;t have to be used by everyone to be useful, at least in my opinion, and it also shows the brand&#8217;s commitment to refining users&#8217; training experience.<\/p>\n<p>    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/5mo-off-for-5-years-on-Visible-premium-plans.webp.webp\" alt=\"$5\/mo off for 5 years on Visible premium plans\" class=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" haswatermark=\"\"\/><\/p>\n<p>        $5\/mo off for 5 years on Visible premium plans<\/p>\n<p>New members get $5\/mo off the $35\/mo Visible+ plan or $5\/mo off the $45\/mo Visible+ Pro plan for the first 60 months when they port-in from an eligible carrier.
