    The smoothness and the way each icon animates is so nice on Lily 2. It is almost Apple like!

    This is cool. I’m still screaming to the rooftops: why hasn’t garmin made a whoop style band the uses the gen 4 or 5 sensor for people who want 24/7 monitoring but still want to wear a traditional watch for $150-$200. They are seriously missing an untapped market.

    Yes please I would love a video which covers the menstural and pregnancy tracking features. This facet is missing from many wearable reviews and personally it is something that I would love to see covered more.

      This is so true. My husband doesn't like big sporty watches. He only wears his smart watches for working out and then takes them off. My best friend has stuck with fitbit charge with a metal band even though they aren't great because he likes something smaller and more discreet. I'm sure lots of guys are this way

    I was curious about the original lily but wasn't sure about it (especially cause it was a model from a few years ago and pricier than I expected), glad they finally made a sequel and even made it look a step nicer than the original! definitely gonna look at picking one of these up when my current watch kicks the bucket

    Very nice design. Was looking to buy my girlfriend something like this as she is just getting into running, but the lack of GPS is a dealbreaker. It's a shame because some fitness bands for 60 dollars now have GPS support.

    Is the pool swimming has custom mode for pool length? The current Lily only has preset standard pool lengths, and it's quite a bummer as someone often go swimming at not-standard pools and wants accurate length reading

    Hmmm....horizontal navigation. I wonder if Lily is showing a future interface that could be adopted by other watches, like Venu? It would definitely be more natural for those of us coming from WearOS or Fitbit (and maybe Apple? I don't know, I don't have AW).
    Ugh, no indoor cycling? Any ANT+? Otherwise, this looks like a winner.

    • @DesFit
      @DesFit  5 месяцев назад

      The original Lily uses the same navigation. The widget glance UI of their other watches wouldn't really work with horizontal navigation so not sure I see that happening.
