Apple Watch, including the Series 7, is primarily designed to work with iPhones. Here are some specifics related to your question:

1. Pairing: You cannot pair an Apple Watch with an Android phone. The initial setup and many functions of the Apple Watch require an iPhone.

2. Cellular Functionality: If you set up the cellular version of the Apple Watch with an iPhone and activate cellular service, the watch can make and receive calls and texts independently of the iPhone. However, it is meant to use the same number and service as the iPhone with which it's paired.

3. Using with Android: Even if the Apple Watch has cellular service activated, without being paired to an iPhone, many of its features will not work optimally or at all. For instance, you wouldn't be able to get any notifications from your Android phone on the Apple Watch.

In short, while the Apple Watch with cellular can operate independently to some extent, it is not designed to replace or function seamlessly with an Android phone. If you're looking for a smartwatch to use with an Android device, you might consider options more compatible with the Android ecosystem.

I hope this helps!
