Activite Pop sits alongside, rather than replacing the original smartwatch. Opting for the cheaper model needn't cost you in tracking abilities, mind: you get the same count of steps, swimming, and sleep. The strap, too, is plastic - silicone, to be specific, and available in a choice of colors (Azure, Shark Grey, and Sand) to match the body.
It makes for a less premium feel, certainly, more Swatch than Swiss luxe, but it's still solid and neatly designed. The tapering edges help, as do the narrow hands and single sub-dial. Those hands whip around of their own accord, too, with the Activite Pop using its Bluetooth connection to your phone to automatically adjust the time and show your progress. Admittedly, clocks that change their settings depending on your current timezone aren't exactly new, but it's always more impressive when an analog display does it compared to a digital read-out.
