A:AnswerHello Confused, that's a really good question! Samsung has Bluetooth and LTE smart watches. The LTE version can receive calls and messages without being connected to a phone. However, you'll first need to activate service for your watch through the same carrier as your mobile phone. Don't worry, AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, and Verizon all offer plans for the LTE versions of Galaxy Watch, Gear S3, and Gear S2 models. This specific model though only has Bluetooth connectivity. ^Elizabeth
A:AnswerHello Michelle, that's a really good question! With this watch you can make phone calls from your wrist. You just need to make sure your smartwatch is connected to your phone through Bluetooth. Once that's set up, you can make as many calls as you want. If your hands are full, you can begin the phone call on your watch and then continue the conversation on your phone once you retrieve it. ^Elizabeth
A:AnswerFor the non-LTE version, about the usual for bluetooth connected devices: approximately 30 ft, allowing for walls and other interferences. If you get the LTE version, you don't need the phone at all.
A:AnswerI use google pay and yes it works with just the watch, but I think the phone has to be in close proximity. I haven't tried it with out the phone being in my pocket.

A:AnswerI've been able to go at least 3 days without recharging. I haven't actually run out of charge but I've put the watch on the charger to keep it charged simply because the charging unit is so easy and convenient to use. No plugging the watch into anything to charge it. Nothing to open or close to charge the watch...its literally just laying it on the charger. I removed my watch from the charger yesterday at 7 a.m. and have worn it ever since...its 7 a.m. today and I have 74% charge still. At this rate I could probably go about 3 more days. Hope this helps.

A:AnswerTypically international companies like Samsung respect their warranty; however, from looking at the following site it seems that the warranty is ideally carried through by bringing it back to the place of purchase.

I would strongly recommend contacting Samsung through the methods provided in that link and asking further questions.
Geek Squad Protection (not the same as the Manufacturer Warranty) is not going to be respected outside the USA and maybe a Canadian Best Buy.
Good luck!
A:AnswerHello, Nanci. Spotify is the preferred audio application on the Galaxy Watch for compatibility's sake, but as of 2018, there are many more including Pandora. All of these can be found on the Google Playstore. ^Thomas
