A:AnswerNo contract or monthly $10 fee required for the non-cellular version of the watch. You can link it to your iPhone. If you have the GPS+Cellular version, and want to be able to make and answer calls while away from your iPhone, then you would need to sign up for Service and pay $10 monthly. You will share the same phone number as your iPhone. But you will be able to just leave your iPhone behind if you wish.
A:AnswerAs long as your phone and the gps watch are within Bluetooth connectivity, the watch will operate as your phone and allow sending and receiving phone calls. It will the same as the cellular watch.
A:AnswerYou need to have the cellular with gps model to activate your cellular service. The gps only watch does not have cellular features only WiFi. But yes you can purchase it through Best Buy and take it to T mobile to activate your service.
A:AnswerI bought mine from Best Buy cause the price of purchase goes to a yearly total of purchases of 1500$ to get elite status. Plus since it almost $500 you basically $5 in rewards back as a my Best Buy member!
A:AnswerOnly selected carrier can provided data for apple watch, please contact the carrier to get specific. I believe Sprint has the cheapest plan for apple watch but your phone needs to be in same carrier as you watch's data provider. Sorry
A:AnswerIf you purchase a series 4 watch with cellular it is not required that you use it it cellular. It also works without cellular like a normal Apple Watch without cellular.
A:AnswerThe Verizon version includes cell phone capability. The gps version can't make calls on its own; it needs the iPhone nearby. The Verizon (or ATT or TMobile) version can make and receive calls without the iPhone nearby. But you've got to pay your cell phone provider another $10/month.
A:AnswerThat depends on the size of your house. It can stay connected for a reasonable distance but can also connection to WiFi to maintain some connectivity.
A:AnswerNo, but if you want to make phone calls via your watch you do. You could exercise with the watch, listen to music, use the apps on the watch, etc., all without being near the phone. But if you want notifications of phone calls, texts, emails, then you need to be within 33 ft. Of the iPhone. If you buy the LTE version (with built in cellular capability), then you do NOT need to have the phone with you, completely independent.
A:AnswerI never noticed it taking long. I am able to answer and hear the caller. I just don’t really use it much in public places for everyone to hear my conversation
