Q: Can you answer calls and talk with this watch?

A: So your question has to part to it. Yes, you can answer calls on it. When you get a call it will show you who is calling and give you 2 options one to answer the call and one to decline the call. The only problem when you click on Answer it will answer on your Cell phone and you will need to use your phone to complete the call. Now I always use a Bluetooth Headset so it works for me. I think you want to use the phone like the apple watch where you can speak into the watch to take calls. You can't do that with this watch. Also, this watch doesn't have a 3G (Cell Phone) option so you can't use this watch without having a phone. You can use the watch to store music and connect your Bluetooth headset to it and go for a walk or run. You will not get any notification until you get back to your phone.
