New activity tracker needed

I need a new activity tracker, with GPS, less than £150. Prefer it to look sleeker than Garmin forerunner. Anyone used Garmin vivosport? Recommendations welcome!

I've got the vivosport. I love it. Very accurate GPS and HR which were the reasons for getting it, and I love the app and all the charts (geek!). But you can get into that as much or as little as you like.

Looks-wise it's quite slim, I like the fact I can have an anologue watchface as my 'homescreen'.

Anything in particular you want to know about it/want it to do?

Thanks. I guess I was only put off by some amazon reviews commenting on how easy their strap snapped and lack of Garmin support. The tracker is integral to the strap right? Other than that, I like it. Mainly want to connect it to Strava.

Yes, the tracker is integrated into the strap. My strap seems pretty robust, no issues there. I've been wearing it day and night for 5 months :)

No idea about interface with strava, but it's doing a grand job of syncing to Myfitnesspal every day.

Lidl have Garmin Vivosports for £99 on Thursday 31st Jan. I think they usually retail for about £120.
