New watch for every day and running

Hi all
My almost four year old Garmin Vivoactive Music died over the weekend - the dreaded frozen blue 'Done' button. Consequently, I'm in the market for a new watch that I can wear everyday and for running 2-3 times a week. I'm not a serious runner but still want heart rate monitoring etc. I really don't like the bulky look of Garmins but am yet to find something better.

The Vivoactive 4s seems to be the new version of my old one but that is discontinued in the colour way I prefer (blush and gold). You can get it in silver though. How does this compare to the new Venu range or is there a new brand on the market which you could recommend? Or should I stick with Garmin? I really don't want an Apple Watch or FitBit but open to other suggestions.
Thanks all

I've got. Venu 2S and love it. Got a metal strap from Amazon and find it really useful. It doesn't navigate but I've downloaded an app that does this and tracks hikes alongside your workouts. Im really pleased with it. It's not as bulky as the other garmins
