    Got it yesterday, had my eye on the 310xt but the price of this was too hard to resist.

    Found GPS fairly quick from cold start, nice and comfortable on the arm, not too bulky. Will run a route tonight to compare accuracy with Mapmyrun and a Garmin i borrowed.

    Pros so far: 3 year warranty, 16hrs battery life on GPS (tbc), customizable display, HRM, exports gpx, feels like a normal watch, night mode, rain proof, very fast GPS lock-on, price, firmware updates via GPS Master

    Cons: No interval training workouts, bit early to say if there are more.

    Only run part-time so its perfect for what i need anyway

    Just noticed that they have these. What's your verdict on it now, after almost 2 months?

    Just noticed this now. Seems an amazing price for the features. How well does the uploading of data work? I think Strava accepts gpx files. So, it should be possible at least...

    Used it quiet a bit for a month and it was still the same.

    Lost GPS signal a couple of times but i was off the beaten track and it was a very cloudy day, not sure if that's why it lost the signal.

    Been off the road for nearly a month now with an injury so haven't used it much.

    I use Map My Run to upload my routes as gpx files. It gives 5 options of file types I think to export the route as. It adds in your mini courses too for anyone that uses MMR.
