Garmin Lily review: Price and competition
We tested the leather-strapped Garmin Lily Classic, whose £230 price tag puts in on a par with the Garmin Vivoactive 4 (currently £229 from Amazon) and overshoots the Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 2 (£192) and Apple Watch Series 3 (£197) . The Garmin Lily Sport, a slightly less luxe model with a silicone strap, costs £150 – putting it in the same ballpark as its closest Garmin counterpart, the Vivomove 3 (£179).
It goes without saying that £150 is a lot to pay for a smartwatch without on-board GPS and NFC, which come built into all the other smartwatches just mentioned. Indeed, Garmin's Forerunner 45 (£118) offers built-in GPS for half the price of the Garmin Lily Classic.
