Which one fits you
On wrists narrower than about 45mm, the Garmin Lily 2 Active is the safer pick — it stays proportionate down to roughly 40mm, where the Huawei Watch Fit 3 starts to hang over the edge. Above 45mm both sit cleanly, and the Huawei Watch Fit 3 gives you more presence.
The Garmin Lily 2 Active wears larger than the Huawei Watch Fit 3 (38mm vs 36.3mm case), giving it more wrist presence — and needing a wider wrist to sit cleanly.
The Huawei Watch Fit 3 is the slimmer of the two (9.9mm vs 11mm), so it slides under a cuff more easily.
On the wrist the Huawei Watch Fit 3 feels lighter (26g vs 29g, case only).
Both are middle-of-the-pack for thickness among the 38mm and 36mm watches in the database.
The Garmin Lily 2 Active is 1.7mm wider, 5.2mm shorter, 1.1mm thicker and 3g heavier than the Huawei Watch Fit 3.
