I received my Lily 2 a month ago and really love it! It provides such great insight into my day to day and my workouts. I have come to understand my body better from the data it compiles! I really appreciate how delicate it is for a smart watch (though not fragile) and how discrete it is.
My only challenge is that it can take multiple attempts to access the "navigation" parts of the watch in a work out setting, such as when trying to switch between yoga poses or especially when ending a swimming workout. Other than that, I have no complaints! Love the Lily 2 and highly recommend it.
It keeps disconnecting from my phone a lot. I’ve restarted it but it still seems to do that. The nether band is also tearing at the metal bar. It’s been not even a week.
I am not ti happy with the performance of this watch. It's very complicated...or it's not working properly...I had a garmin of a different model and it was so much easier to use Use. Unfortunately I list it so I decided to try this nice slim style...I wish I woukd have just replaced it for the same modeling had before. Not at all happy with the "lilly"
My Lily 2 Classic was a birthday gift earlier this month and I love it! The clarity of the watch face, along with the ease of toggling between each feature is wonderful. I also love the Good Morning feature - it wishes me a good day which makes me smile. Highly recommend this fitness watch!
I've had the new Lily several months, and I'm loving it. I got the original Lily because it was the most attractive on the market. While I liked it, I hated that the casing had a color that made it impossible to change bands and look nice. I bought the black leather and the gray (sadly only plastic bands there) and commented on their insta that if they made one with an all gold or all silver case, I'd buy both and several watch bands! FINALLY someone there must have talked to women.
This new watch is even prettier, and is available in a camel/cognac brown leather, which is so much more flexible than lilac and other previously offered colors. I got that, black leather, and a brown nylon band. A metalic band would be a nice option, too.
Like its predecessor, it lacks the more robust fitness features of the bigger, bulkier watches, but I'm not an athlete or running marathons, only staying fit. For me, it's perfect. I can track my steps, workouts, heart rate, sleep, & caloric burn and still wear a stylish watch.
You can also have your phone, text, and calendar alerts on your watch, but I don't use any of those. I'm distractable enough.
The downsides: - I would gladly trade the period tracker (which I have disabled) for an in--phone GPS. You have to have your phone with you to use that. - The ability to skip forward or backward a song is disabled during workouts, when you may most want it. - It requires occasional reset because it will suddenly not track heart rate correctly. Not by a little, but substantially. My HR was 140-150, while it showed 90. A couple times I stopped and restated the activity, but once had to do a full reset.
