    I was on the Garmin site on my phone a short while ago and in the shop I spotted a Forerunner 230 and 630. No photos, but the specs seem to be similar to their predecessors, with the addition of ConnectIQ support.

    Forerunner 630 comes in Black/White and Midnight Blue, 230 comes in Black/White, Purple Strike and Force Yellow.

    Bit underwhelming tbh, I might have been tempted if it had the optical hrm off the 225 but activity tracker stuff is of no real interest to me.

    Interesting that the 230 looks to have less features than the 225!
