Lily Classic

my sister loves her lily 2 active - very fashionable and really good looking but can work for fitness too. The other pro over the lily 2 is the much longer battery life (almost double) and added buttons. so its not just the gps. Though it is slightly larger than the lily 2.

all day wear no issue and she lives in a very hot climate so no issues with sweat etc. Took a bit for her to get used to wearing at night as didn't used to wear a watch to bed and its her first smartwatch. But yes its tiny and light so no biggie.

Do not even consider the Lily - insult to women. The Venu3 is a good choice if you insist on going wth Garmin but the Apple Watch is a better choice. Maybe you should ask her what she would prefer.

The Lily is what Garmin thinks women want - they put GPS into the Lily 2 Active - still an insult to women. I don't count steps lol I understand that many find it a valuable metric but personally I see no meaningful value in it.

Garmin lacks watches that are designed for woman that provide rich data sets and instead makes the Lily which lacks robust training data - it is a Fashion watch. Women train just like men and want robust training data on a watch that does not look cheap and in the tackiest of colours. The Lily 2 Active is a step up from the Lily 2 but is still as what one other poster said - a watch you take to the office so your step count stays accurate, it isn't a watch you train with. It is dainty and feminine of course but it fails on so many level to be an actually viable fitness watch. Garmin designs and makes watches to suit men.

Saying that the Lily is an insult to women is not an insult to you or anyone who uses that watch personally it is a statement about how Garmin views women. You are correct in that not all women train like men but they can train like men so why shouldn't they have a watch that is designed for them that has all those features? The Lily is clearly designed for women and Garmin purposely chooses to give it basic fitness features. There are no aesthetically pleasing small watches with all the training features that are designed with women in mind. Garmin has made a pretty watch but failed to give it the more robust features that many women want and to get the data they want they are stuck with ugly oversized watches with tacky colours. That is what makes the Lily an insult to women.

Yes and you can sync another app in the Garmin connect to log food. I récommend Garmin Lily 2 Active with GPS.

Garmin Lily! It’s small and the face is round. It looks much more like a regular watch than many fitness watches. I love mine!

Yes! Minimal charging time once a week. I’ve had mine for 5 years now! Tracks sleep well I think.

I use a Garmin Lily and I got it 3 years ago. About 6 months ago one of the little strap loops broke so I replaced the strap. The battery still lasts 4-5 days and it's smaller than the chunky masculine watches that have more capacity. I like the Garmin app, and during the time I've had it they've updated the watch software so it now gives me a VO2 max estimate as well as all the other stuff it tracks, so I'm pleased I'm actually getting more features over time. I expect to get several more years' use out of this one, and all being well I'd likely get another Garmin after.
