    Q: Which carrier option do I choose if I want to connect Apple Watch to my iPhone on a Verizon plan I already have ?

    A: The watch is more like a remote for your phone. You don't have to add it to your plan, your phone just has to be within bluetooth range. Like how you can place a call with your AirPods.

    Q: I mostly want the watch for emergencies like falls, calling 911 or a contact. Would this one be it?

    A: The WiFi and cellular watch can make calls. The WiFi one relies on your phones connection to make the call while the cellular one can be activated and given its own service line as if it was its own device

    Q: Can this watch count my steps

    A: Yes obviously counting steps is really it’s main job

    Q: Does this watch work with Android

    A: No this watch will not work with android there are many other options for smart watches if you do have an android phone

      Review of Apple Watch SE

      I purchased this to upgrade from my Apple Watch Series 3 and I absolutely love it. The screen is obviously bigger than my old one and the perfect size. I did get the smaller screen and I don’t have a very big wrist, but it’s still the perfect size to read everything on it. The battery on it is something I’m not used to compared to my old one. It arrived in a decent amount of time and I am so happy with my purchase.

      Absolutely LOVE it!

      I love this watch! It has been really helpful in tracking my fitness goals. It is also really convenient to be able to have texting, calculating, and note taking abilities on me at all times. I love that I can have a picture of my family as the background to see them every time I check the time. The watch functions really well, the battery life is great, and it is comfortable to wear.

      Impressive First Impressions – Great Value for the

      I’ve been using the Apple Watch SE (2nd Generation) for less than a month, and I’m already impressed with how much it adds to my daily routine. It’s easy to set up, fast, and feels great on the wrist, super lightweight and comfortable. What I’m loving so far: -Smooth Performance: The system is fast and responsive, and apps run without lag. -Fitness & Activity Tracking: Tracks all my workouts and steps accurately. I like how the Activity Rings motivate me to move more -Battery Life: Lasts all day with no problem. A quick charge is usually enough to keep it going. -Useful Features: I appreciate having notifications, calls, music controls, and safety features like Emergency SOS on my wrist. Minor drawbacks: -No Always-On Display: Would be nice to have, but I can live without it. -Missing Health Sensors: It doesn’t have ECG or blood oxygen features, but that’s expected at this price point. For someone who’s just starting with an Apple Watch, I think the SE (2nd Gen) is an excellent choice. It has everything I need without the higher price tag. Can’t wait to explore more features as I keep using it!
