Disappointing
I wanted to get away from the tech bro look of my other smart watch, but the Lily 2 has been pretty disappointing. The Lily 2 does not have integrated GPS so if you want to track a course or mileage, you have to carry your phone AND remember to start your activity on the watch and have the phone app open. Cumbersome. The watch has a very restricted list of activities, and unbelievably indoor biking or spin is NOT ONE. Whyyyy??! (It does not integrate with Peloton, sad trombone.) There other quirks that add to my user friction, like you have to raise your arm juuuust right to activate the display, it sometimes takes a few tries especially if you are laying down. At night the watch face changes to a weird display that obscures the time and is oddly so much brighter when it doesn't need to be. On the up side, the Lily 2 does look more like a traditional 'jewelry' watch, the battery does last many days and it charges fast. I got it as a gift, but after two months of use I just feel stuck with an underperforming watch, which stinks. If I could go back, I'd get the Lily 2 Active. Garmin, all these different models is unnecessarily confusing and frustrating.

Overall I love the watch with one HUGE caveat
The Lily is a lovely, feminine watch, and for the most part I love the watch. However I have a known benign cardiac arrhythmia (PVC) that is monitored by a cardiologist. These irregularities affect the stress, body battery and sleep data. These issues really really bother me. I've worn the consistently watch for two weeks and one forum said these may even out over time but I tend to have my doubts on that. The only "solution" I've read about is to turn off the heart monitor but then I will not have that data during exercise. It seems the issue of cardiac arrhythmias should have been considered when designing the watch features.

Like the Overall Look
I enjoy the features but there's one annoying aspect that I haven't found a workaround. When I set the clock face I prefer (good old analog) the clock face changes on its own. One of the things I liked about the Lily 2 was the analog clock face. Is there a way to select a clock face that remains in place until I change it?

Amazing
I have tried so many brands I wish I would have considered Garmin first. By far the best out there!

Good data
I love the look of this model but it tends to flip faces on its own. I prefer a specific clock face but the Lily 2 has decided what clock face I'll see. The clock face I want is a valid selection, but Lily evidently knows better.

Tiny font
I selected this watch for the size of the face, assuming the font size would be larger. Although Garmin provides different face themes to select, none of them offer a larger font size for your step count. If you are farsighted and buying this watch looking for larger font you will be disappointed.

Features
I bought this refurbished and it ran for 2 months. My first one ran for a couple of years. Makes me sad.

Attractive and easy to use.
I have worn a Garmin forerunner for years and it was a great watch. I received the Lilly2 forerunner for years Christmas. It is a little smaller than the forerunner, so it is more comfortable under my sleeves. The face is very attractive and it doesn’t look like a fitness watch. It works well tracking my activities and movement. It’s easy to use and is compatible with my phone. I’ve been more active this January and it’s encouraging to see my progress.

Garmin Lily 2
I love the look, but I is hard to see because of the background design when I am in bright light. It changes the screen too much, when I just want to see the time.

Frustrating timepiece
I can't see the time without tapping the watch face. I want to see the time when I just look at the watch face. The watch does not respond to wrist twisting, lifting, etc.

Love it!
I upgraded from a Lily a couple months ago so I was familiar with the bulk of features. I like being able to use Garmin Pay which wasn't available on the earlier version. The look is fantastic and fits my small wrist well.

Wanted tonlove this.
I really wanted to love this watch. It beautiful. Just what I was looking for. I got it to see messages and get phone calls while working. I wanted something smaller that looked like a real watch. Not a bulky Apple Watch. But it won’t stay connected. If it’s connected it interferes with other Bluetooth devices. It’s very had to navigate. I had it set to just messages and calls. They wouldn’t come through due to the fact the Bluetooth wouldn’t stay connected. Unfortunately I’ll have to return. Beautiful but not functional. For reference I am an iPhone user, maybe other phones have better luck.

Overall - good purchase
I previously only had apple watches and made the switch to a Lily 2. It visually looks very good and battery life lasts much longer compared to apple. This band has not caused any irritation and I like the stats it gives for sleeping and other daily functions. can be a little hard to navigate swiping between screens but overall looks sleek and does just what I need.

Decent looks, activity tracking could be better
This is a nice fitness tracker. I appreciate the accuracy and surprisingly find the additional tracking data useful. I was looking for something that wasn't overly large or that screamed fitness tracker, especially since I am wearing it all the time. I do wish that the bands were longer. Since the device cannot be worn at the wrist, using wrist sizing misses the mark. I have an average size wrist and had to buy a new band because the one that came with the device is too short to be worn comfortably. I also find the activity tracking to be way too obsessive. I want to focus on the activity, not on constantly stopping to change up settings. As an example, it's set up so that I can't simply track my yoga practice, I have to stop and start the device for each pose. That is ridiculous in my opinion.

Very stylish
I have had the watch a couple of months, having trouble accessing the features, not sure what I am doing wrong. Once I figure it out, I am sure I will love it.

Getting to know much it can
I got my Lily@ 2Classic s couple weeks ago. Sorta wish a picked a different face and color, and possibly two hands, one for outside and kayalking and one for casual. I'm learning how to works and have made an adjustments or eliminations. How can one get a different frame or band for an existing purphase?

Love It!
I purchased this to replace my VivoSmart4. I love the fact that it is smaller than any watch/tracker I have seen. I love the size, convenience and programs available. My only complaint - and it isn't really a complaint is that the vibrate portion is very tinny sounding and feeling.

Great look with lots of data
I switched to the Lily2 from a multisport watch. This watch looks great, I can still get all the health and sport data I want but not look like I'm wearing a sport specific watch
