Yes and No. You can answer a phone call from your watch, but since there are no speakers built into the watch you will have to use your phone. But there is an option to pair your watch with a bluetooth headset so there is another option.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No. You can choose to answer or dismiss calls only. If you choose to answer, the call goes to your phone (or BT headset if you're wearing one).
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You can answer however the call must be taken from the phone itself. I believe the apple watch has this feature however sound quality is so poor that most people do not use it.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes; you can tell it to call an individual, look up something on Google, text something or someone, etc..
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.no, you will not be able to speak to someone through the watch. but you can see who is calling and you can review text messages.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No but it will ring or vibrate when you get a call.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Unfortunately, you cannot answer calls on this phone. When the call comes up on your watch, you can either slide right to activate the call on your phone or left to shut the person off without looking at your phone.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Only in as far as you can accept or reject a call from the touchscreen of the watch. The Moto 360 (and the rest of them, as far as I know) do not include a speaker of any kind, so you won't be able to actually use your watch to replace your phone any time soon.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You can not use your watch to answer calls.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It varies widely. First off many watches either require or come with a sim card which needs to be activated with a cell provider just as if it were another cellphone. With a sim card the watch can be used WITH a smartphone OR be used as a standalone smartphone by itself. Without a sim card most smart watches require a smartphone that has a data plan which allows Bluetooth tethering similar to a wifi hotspot on your phone. Some smart watches will have limited functionality if Bluetooth tethering is not allowed like posting directly to Facebook or weather display. Due to the large number of differences in smart watches and the number of requirements based on all the different phones and their capabilities I seriously recommend coming in to your local Best Buy and have one of our specialists help determine what will work with your smartphone.
