Guys get Craig's channel to 100k by 2020
Thank you very much. I appreciate the support. The channel is so close. Thanks again.
Ya
3:25 I respect that thank u can’t stand when people do that
Two things are sure:
1. I'm gettin' me an Apple watch.
2. He and his wife love each other.
Thank you very much Jacob. Glad to hear that this was helpful in your decision. Thank you very much for the nice comment about my wife and I. She is great and I wouldn’t be here now without her help. Have a great day Jacob. Hope you enjoy your watch.
yeh my wife would have complained never mind saying love you
@@fatgirlboy9341 yeah, I had a wife like that. I dumped her sorry ass.
you may wanna reconsider your choices too
I noticed this as well, sounded like a conversation my wife would randomly have. I love that woman unconditionally.
🤣
This is the most “Dad Review” version of the Apple Watch I’ve ever seen. But I love it. I love how you actually demonstrate yourself using the Apple Watch. As someone who has never owned one, you make it very easy to understand what I can expect if I decide to purchase one. Keep up the great work and thank you!
Thank you Jonathan. Saw “dad review” and was thinking oh great, here comes some crap. But, instead such a nice comment. I will own “dad review” if it brought value. Thanks Jonathan for watching and the comment.
@@CraigsTechTalk Rename channel to Dad Tech Talk
@@DeniG259 Did you read the comment you're replying to?
Dad knows better than kids!!! Btw, dad invented the iwatch!!!
Good Video. I agree not an all day use, but when i go for walks with my kids its nice to have something to be connected but also disconnected from your phone so you can enjoy your time.
I agree with you. Cellular all the way. You can unwind but still be in contact. I got mine to go for runs, I hate having my phone strapped to my arm.
Good video. I’ve been using a series 5 with cellular for about 6 months. I was really looking forward to leaving my phone behind, especially when I’m out exercising and don’t have pockets. While the AW does work to replace many of the phone’s cellular based features, I found that there are just too many times I need my phone for other things - such as taking a picture - for me to feel comfortable leaving it behind. One note regarding Audible - while you can’t stream it, you can download books from Audible to your watch to listen to without your phone. The downloads take a long time, so you will need to plan ahead.
do you know i you can also download spotify songs and listen when away from wifi?
@@lilyliciousssSpotify is now available for Apple Watch !
I was torn between the GPS model and GPS+Celluar. The extra monthly expense and the price jump isn't worth it for my needs. My phone will always be on me. I see no need to intentionally leave my phone behind only to be limited to the capabilities of the watch. I just bought the GPS model today and couldn't be happier.
I need cellular because I don't want to bring my phone with me when I'm going for a run or gym. That's also only reason why I use this watch. I don't wear it otherwise. So I rather have SE model with cellular than 7 series without.
@@sleepyjoe7843 why do you need connection while doing a run?
@@willdownes6041 Emergency you never know what happen (family etc) and I have a company. Unlike employee who have time out, I need always to be connected. But I would have chose (now) series 8 if I was wearing watch daily, maybe even new apple watch ultra (if it would fit). Just don't see point of it if I only use it for sport.
@@sleepyjoe7843 fair enough sounds like a good think for you to have
@@willdownes6041 not only emergency but calling a taxi, listening to music and buying things at the store
Spotify now streams with Cellular 👏👏👏
Are you sure?
@@m1zzle158 yup
Google it (:
Y’all finally got it congrats! I had it for 3 years with Apple Music after canceling Spotify Premium
@@m1zzle158 yes i use it every day now
@@juanpenajimenez7274 Can you also use it on the Series 5 ?
I heeded your recommendations from this video, and I’m really happy that I did! I hadn’t really considered getting a cellular-equipped Apple Watch, especially given the price difference, but after watching this video, I looked on Amazon to see if I could at least find one that would be shipped for free. Not only did I find one with free shipping, but there was a “coupon” that brought the price of the cellular version down to the [regular] price of the GPS-only version. I was sold, so thank you for making this video!
Great Video Craig! I am thinking of getting a cellular one, just amazes me what that little tiny thing can do.
“Having the important tools a cellphone has to offer” without actually carrying it around! This was a GREAT review!! So glad I got a cellular SE!!
Plus, if your phone dies, then your Apple Watch GPS version would become useless. Too much money for that lol. Cellular is the best option.
@@akillutes6298 GREAT INFO!!
I have the series 6. The battery life great and it charges faster the previous Apple Watches. And the battery last a lot longer and then it's predicessors?
I have the series 5 with cellular and the only reason I got it is because I took a trip pre-covid and ended up with a rental car that did not have bluetooth so navigating was difficult. I am also a runner and I don’t like carrying my phone with me because it’s just dead weight. Last week I was on a run in a new neighborhood, missed a turn on my planned route, and was able to pull up the maps app, see how far off course I was, and figure out the most direct way back to my car. Definitely enjoying the watch with cellular.
VERY NICE!!!
Can Siri do directions to your car if you forgot where you parked?
Does Strava work on the cellular? My preference for a cellular is just as yours, don't want to carry it when running or at the gym.
I’ve decided that the Series 7 is going to be my first Apple Watch, to go with my iPhone 12 Pro Max. I wasn’t going to seriously consider the cellular option. But your video, and some others, are making me think it’s worth it.
So worth it, seriously
I am deciding whether I should buy the series 7 or the SE, considering that the cellular is only 50€ for the SE (100€ on the series7) but talking about the cellular, I don’t see the point in having an Apple Watch that can’t do anything without being a few meters away from your phone.
And apparently Spotify and other apps work on cellular now
@@fabrice6847 did you end up getting the watch? Because I’m also considering getting one but I’m still on the fence.
@@michaelguerrero6616 series 7 is good. I got it in stainless steel and it’s cool
My gf just got me the 7 for Christmas and I’m loving it so far!
I first bought an Apple Watch Series 4, a few weeks before the Series 5 came out and I was having this very debate on cellular or no. With tryingt to work out and wanting to still be in touch. The only thing that made me go non cellular, was the fact that my carrier. Boost Mobile didn't support the service at that time....
Still rocking my Apple Watch Series 5 Nike Cellular and LOVE it. 😎
The convenience of not having to bring my iPhone with me when I go to the gym...or go relax and go fishing...I truly love the idea of having so much music and everything else all in this watch almost makes it feel futuristic...Apple pay is pretty awesome as well.
I do not see the point in buying the newer version at all and I should get another 2 to 3 years out of this watch before I once again upgrade...for now I still love the series 5 Nike. :)
This was a great review always puts me in a better mood knowing that I will be making the right decision, but personally I think I’m gonna go without cellular as I can’t really imagine not taking my phone anywhere so I’m really gonna be connected to my phone most of the time therefore it wouldn’t really make sense to add cellular 😅
I chose the cellular version of the SE to not always have the burden of hauling around a large heavy phone. The battery life on cellular could be better though.
How do you connect with cellular if you have two different carriers
I didn't get the cell option on my first couple watches but once I switched to cellular I love the options of going phone less :) Taking calls on the watch makes me feel like Penny from Inspector Gadget lol can't wait for video calls on the watch one day!
lMAO i forgot about that movie lol
@@emiliomaldonado1862 I loved the cartoon/show when I was little :)
I think of the Dick Tracy comic series where he had a video watch, around in the 50s and 60s!
@@mikemalone9896 that’s cool! Wish Apple would give us a video option :)
Da da da da daaaa inspector gadget. Love that cartoon.
Love, love, love my Apple watch and have always opted for cellular!! Countless times I've forgotten my phone but have had my watch along so it was no big deal...
One of the features I like is turn by turn directions. When I have music on, I do not want to hear GPS chime in every 30 seconds. I can get around without GPS, but traffic and construction updates are nice. If you have your watch on, it will vibrate twice for left turn and three times for right. I might have it backwards, but I know it when I am driving. I have a big radio with the map screen, it is just nice to get the warning so I do not have to keep looking down. works when you are walking or biking as well. This might work with all Apple Watch gens, not sure. Or of you need cellular.
Just curious do you mention this because it’s a cellular only feature or can this be done with any Apple watch + iPhone? Because directions one wrist is one of the main features I’m interested in an Apple Watch for.
@@TheUndertones559 don’t need cellular.
“My daughters fart sounds” yeah ok we believe you 👀😂
I own a swimming pool service and I’m thinking about getting cellular version so I can leave phone in the truck and never drop it in a pool again.
That sounds like a great use for it. Since it is waterproof and safe to use in the ocean. I like that idea.
@@CraigsTechTalk Apple watches are completely waterproof?
Hello Asylum, read number 1 at the bottom. support.apple.com/kb/SP826?locale=en_US basically it is good for the pool or shallow ocean. Nothing with high speed water or deep submersion.
@@CraigsTechTalk thanks for the link
@@asylumrain I use my series 4 every time when surfing. Still great after 3 years.
At first I thought the cellular version was pointless but the longer i've had my Apple Watch the more I've seen how beneficial the cellular version would be. Mostly for reasons you'd mentioned but also I'd really like to be able to use Uber (because Lyft doesn't have a watch app) without having my phone.
@@richardjackson5670 I think you have me confused with someone else
does it actually cost money each month cuz where I live it doesn't say so on the websites
For the cellular version you have to use your phone to set up the plan with a cellular provider
I have an eplipcy and I was buying the apple watch series 6 GPS but after I watched your video I am convinced that I needed the cellular version for the fact that I might have my phone battery dead and if I had a seizure I need to be always connected
Thank you so much for this video
Thanks Craig, My decision to get celular is a YES as a result of your video. The one thing you can add especially for women is that we dont have to take the phone out of our purse just to see who or what it is especially if its not important.
I just got the 13 pro max and I love it for video and the camera but it is safer in my purse. I can lock my phone up in a locker at work and just use watch. Thanks again.
I wish there was a smartwatch where I don't need a phone to set it up.
This is great, totally new information to me. The one thing where you have to take your phone with you is, if you want to take pictures, that is during hiking. Other then that, you can totally leave your phone at home and do your hiking activity. For local stroll or going to the mall, the cellular watch will do perfect though.
I just treated myself to this watch , and I am glad you had good things to say 😄
Great topic. I have cellular on my AW4, primarily to listen to podcasts. The native app is not reliable at all and I use cellular so little I doubt I’ll get cellular next time.
Great information. Thank you for sharing 👍 I’ve owned mine for about one year now and I emphatically agree on these points. Today I received the Apple Watch series 6 gps/cellular for my girlfriend, excited to deliver it to her tomorrow, I also will be forwarding this video to her so she can reference it.
I didn't think I would need it, but I got it today and I am already happy about it. I like being able to not always bringing my phone. Not that I always need to leave the phone, its just kind of nice.
Hi Craig - FYI, T-Mobile has a $5/month plan using 500 GB high-speed. Even if you go over this limit, they just throttle down a little. Their $10 plan is unlimited. I bought the Series 7 cellular and got the $5 plan for bike rides. Thanks for the advice!
That is great to know. Thank you for sharing. That would be a good one for me.
Mb*😂
That's awesome. I wish the UK would offer such great data plans I can use with my iPhone and my Apple Watch with Cellular.
It’s 500 MB just an update
T mobile is available in canada?
Great video, thanks. You helped me decide on the GPS only version.
I love my Apple Watch with cellular. It’s great to leave my phone at home or in my handbag and still get my calls, texts, emails and notifications without having to use or find my phone.
I'm using GPS Nike Apple Watch - Series 6, with all the benefits you mentioned which is really valuable, I would think twice before buying Cellular one because of its Weak Battery Life!
also thought cellular on apple watch would not do a lot but this just changed my perspective wow
He has been paid to change your perspectives
@@lalitdas6145 what he said are facts tho, i guess it worked
Hello Joshua, glad that the video gave you a different perspective. I think there are different options people don’t think of. I tried to show the uses and let facts and features speaker for themselves. Thank you for watching.
Now latit das, who is paying me? You got it figured out. Is it Apple paying me to sell more expensive watches? Is it the cell carriers who have come together to get more cell plan sold? Apple doesn’t pay UA-camrs and the cell carriers can’t agree on anything. I would step back and flush out the logic of your accusation before dropping them. You clearly did not think this comment all the way through. But thanks for your comment and the engagement. You have helped spread the video further.
Best if mobile networks can offer two SIM (or eSIM) under the same account.
very wise !! specially about mental health !!
Got the cellular version of the new Apple Watch. It is very useful.
I’m treating myself for my Bday 🥳 like how you simplified the good usage ... Appreciate!
Thank you very much. Happy Birthday. Hope you enjoy the new watch.
I bought myself to the SE Apple Watch for my birthday in February!
I did the same for my bday this month! Def glad I did. 🥳
I do... I bought one specifically to separate me from the phone when on my motorcycle & bicycle & store /shopping trips... it / they kick-ass
Very cool. That is the value I see. Being able to leave the phone but still have communication.
Hi, love my Apple Watch and use it constantly. Changed to a cellular Apple Watch last year and wouldn’t go back to non cellular. Love it.
That is great Julie. Glad to hear that you have enjoyed your watch that much. I wouldn’t go back to non cellular. It’s a great backup phone too if your phone dies.
Can you still somehow listen to music via tha apple watch without having apple music subscription?
Or is there any way to download offline music that I could listen in the gym?
@@adarshanand5928 you can load songs on the watch, but the available songs are loaded from your phone’s song inventory. According to comments you can now stream Spotify as well.
@@velenacruz8630 Thanks Mate. I understood.
Apparently you can stream Spotify on the watch now without being connected to the phone. Haven’t tried it yet, but your supposed to be able to do it.
Just tested it and Spotify does work over cellular now.
@@bweekzzz1 Really? I’m going to go for a walk and test this out! I have been bummed about not being able to listen to Spotify on cellular
i was about to say this! spotify on my watch literally is exactly what i looked for in a cellular watch. i love it
you’re *
@@bweekzzz1 This is actually the reason I got rid of my Apple Watch last year because my Garman could play music
At the risk of sounding like a helicopter parent, another great use of Cellular is for locating and communicating with kids. Just gifted an Apple Watch SE to my son and can now find his location as he bike rides around the neighborhood. Also can setup notifications when he leaves a geofenced radius from our home. Family Setup allows Apps and Contacts to be restricted and parents can text, call, or walkie talkie kids to return home at sunset. A kid friendly digital leash!
That’s definitely not being a “helicopter parent”! We live in a messed up world so as parents being able to keep in touch with the kids when they’re out is super important, and it’s a bonus if they were to need you in an emergency and don’t know how to explain where they are, you can locate them yourself through the watch! It’s a cool gadget for more peace of mind I’d say!
I’m gonna do the same thing.
How long does the battery last? Using cellular only without a phone close by, we don’t get 6 hours.
@@robynflynnlarge4672 Battery life has not been a noticeable issue - easily 6h. Kid gets exhausted far sooner than battery drains!
Oh nah, I understand safety and all but ya niggas is definitely bugging 😂😂😂😂😂
i got the cellular version to future proof it, and to use it while traveling abroad, it would be super useful for so many things while travelling.
I read something about the cellular not working outside of your country so check into that first.
@@annie9855 But if you had to call emergency services doesn’t it work in other countries just for that.
I stream Spotify on my Apple Watch 6 all the time. Love my watch!
Good video. I just upgraded to a cellular watch and leaned some new things here. Never thought about the idea of "unplugging" and not being the guys staring at his phone all day.
I have chronic hypotension and I’m a fall risk. If I faint the watch will call 911 and give them my location. That is why I want a cellular watch
Stay safe
Don’t get in an argument are cheer while watching a sporting event, the app will think you have fallen and ask you if you need help, real talk!!!
Tbh, you can do absolutely all those things on the non-cellular one, having then phone on the same network (this or BT just goes over reinforced concrete walls like butter..). I never leave my phone home, and having notifications on my watch is in no way less distracting 🤷♂️ apart from doing all that on the non-cellular, battery will basically drain away while on cellular. Maybe useful for some, I see no use for it. You still have gps, you can add music and listen to it on a run. Thanks for the video though and enjoy your cellular watch 👌
I got the GPS version recently but I’m wondering whether I should exchange it for the cellular. Can I swap my existing mobile data plan that I have on my phone over to my Apple Watch? So instead of using the SIM card on my phone, can I just use this SIM card on my watch? Thanks for your video
For people that switch between ios and android a lot . what ios features can you still use on the watch while having the sim in a android ?
The one feature that you didn’t talk to is emergency calling and fall detection. That’s why I won’t go without cellular on my apple watch.
Thanks for the video… I was hesitant to go for a GPS only watch, now I’m confident 😁
Now I know fo sure that I definitely do not need the GSM connectivity
What’s the gsm?
When will the offer the web like search engine to search what ever u want ?
Can u manage music on the watch if u don’t substitute to Apple music and or don’t have Mac OS or PC to manage iTunes like w/ iPod?
I got cellular because i find myself in situations where i either forget to charge my phone or i hit low battery while im out. So its a good back up
Thanks, Craig for your review of cellular. I appreciate the advantages and convenience of being connected by not having to carry a phone-mainly for me when I work out. However, the additional costs seems excessive-to think that my cell company is charging me to have cellular on my watch when I already am paying them for my phone-that's a deal breaker-the other issue for me is not wanting to be really connected so much-I want to get away from everything at times, and don't want to be so available, to talk, text, or email. :). Thanks again!
Use Do Not Disturb on your watch, problem solved
@@Koji-888 it's literally a swipe and a tap, and it's literally 100% the same as not having the device. Especially if you tap the airplane mode button located on the same screen.
As someone who’s partially disabled and has to walk with a cane, I can’t walk and talk on my iPhone at the same time. So it’s a great help for my situation. Also, when I go to the store, I don’t like having the iPhone on my pocket. In my condition, it’s easier to have my shopping list on my wrist and be able to take calls without having something extra to carry around.
Thank you for this review. I just ordered the series 6 today with cellular. My question is how does the cellular work with my iPhone? Can it be setup to receive messages and phone calls from the iPhone even though it has its own cellular number? Thanks.
You are welcome. I hope you enjoy it. The way it works is that it will be connected to your cell phone number. You don’t get a new number for the watch. When you’re away from your phone the cellular will kick in and any notifications, text or calls will come through on the watch cellular. When you are with your phone, they stay connected with Bluetooth or WiFi. You turn on the watch cellular within the watch app on the phone. If you find your not using it, you can turn off cellular in the app.
@@CraigsTechTalk Hello. If its just using the same phone number then why do you have to pay service? like for what?
You pay for another cellular line that is being used. Answering to the same number doesn’t change two different cellular connections are happening. That requires two unique device identifiers or you could not two the two individually.
Going back and forth this morning if I should exchange my Apple Watch SE GPS to cellular, I guess the answer is YES! Thanks!
An update would be nice :)
I Change my buy from SE to celular, after I found Out my O2 cel company dont Charge extra cost for IT! Have to wait 3 Weeks for my Apple watch!!
I use Spotify on my cellular series 6 almost daily.
It was added in November. Days after this video was posted.
You don’t have to, you can just download the music and podcast on to your Apple Watch
I was going to ask this question. Does spotify work on cellular on SE?
@@wesleybarnes5376 yeah I've the same doubt.
@@kento_k865 I am using Spotify on SE, non-cellular watch witch I ended up buying, it sucks it takes FOREVER to load songs onto the watch's Spotify "Downloaded" folder, only to find that when you go for a run its there but the downloads sometimes don't play, it works, but I guess it will get better over time maybe.. if this info helps anyone.
Thank you for the video. Is it possible to get Spotify on the Apple watch and listen with non Apple Bluetooth earpods? Thanks so much
Hi do you need to put a sim in your phone ,thanks
One important feature that cellular watch provides is calling for emergency service if you hurt yourself in remote locations
Facts 💯🙂🏆❤️ Keep hearing how the watches save people’s lives.
that's the ONE reason I got the Apple watch ,I suffer from sudden cardiac arrest , great way to call if I have a problem
If your watch is gps and connected to the phone, can you still do messages and phone calls on the watch?(like how you can on an iPad with a phone)
@harvey Jones, Yes, you absolutely can as long as your phone is within range. I have an apple watch series 3 gps that still works great and I used it for calls and texts all the time. It came in handy when I didn't want to pull out my phone.
A year late to comment but I have to say, he nailed it. I skipped on the apple watch all these years thinking I didn’t need another tool that will enslave me more by technology and social media. Finally got the series 7 and my phone barely leaves my room and I get to focus on other things that matter.
Think 🤔 you talked me into getting cellular 7 watch , I was debating it but after watching this video review I’ve just ordered it , not always practical carrying around my iPhone 12 Pro Max .
This was an awesome review. I'll pick the phone without cellular because none of the 10 matter to me, but it was good to know what I will be missing out and that helped me decide if I need it or not :) Thank you!
Thank you very much. I am glad that it helped you decide. Save the money if you can. I did make another video on the real reason to get cellular. After getting them for my daughters I realized it is a backup form of communication. If your phone dies or another way to get a hold of my kids. If you don’t need these 10 or a backup communications. Go Wi-Fi. Thanks for watching.
Good video, Craig!
Since watchOS 5, that is to say, more than two years ago, developers have access to streaming over cellular.
So don’t blame Apple if third party apps don’t stream over cellular, it’s simple they didn’t do their work properly with their apps.
Cheers and have yourself a Merry Christmas!
Thanks for the video! Really helpful. Made me decide I don’t really need a cellular Apple Watch.
That is great to hear. Save the money.
@@CraigsTechTalk Update: I got the cellular version haha 😂 realized it would be nice to get rid of my phone when I’m cycling and at the gym
Very cool. Hope you enjoy it.
So I agree with all of the points you’ve brought up. My favorite is that I can now leave my phone at home, which I’ve found myself doing more frequently.
Thank you 🙏 That is great you are getting away from the phone. It is nice not to have a little less distraction. Thanks for watching.
Great info... my wife has MS and she needs Apple Music, Audible books and a phone on her wrist... she cannot use an iPhone so with the cellular version of the new SE I can set up the watch as family... can she still use Audible? She will be within WiFi range all day and only needs the cellular to make calls...
Great video, convinced me that gps only is just fine for me
Thank you. Perfect, glad it helped save you some money. I want these videos to help. Enjoy your new watch.
Feel like Michael Knight talking to KITT on my Apple Watch although I’m talking to Siri 😂
Well put. Although it might be great for a lot of people, I don't think the cellular is the one for me. I just got the Apple Watch SE 2022 GPS only and I am loving it. I have my phone on me almost all the time, so the Apple watch is always connected to my phone. I haven't worked out in a long time, apart from the occasional cycling. I love that I can control my music on Spotify or YT Premium through my watch, and that I can get directions on my wrist while driving (my car doesn't have Carplay or Bluetooth). I am an international student here in the US and I always thought Apple watch was overpriced and not worth it, when I couldn't afford one. When I could, I got one and I couldn't have been more wrong. Although I would love to have a Series 8, I do not see how I would use the extra features it has over the SE on a regular basis. And the cellular version made little sense to me. So I went with the non cellular version and I am so happy I got one.
Hey Craig I loved this video. Curious which series Apple Watch were you using in this video?
I do horse back riding and its really helpfull
I can see how it could be.
I can receive WhatsApp messages on my Apple Watch SE Cellular. And I think it is worth every cent. My mobile plan for cellular costs just $6/month for 1 GB, which I only turn on to use when I am out for my brisk walks. Very glad I got the cellular version.
How does the antenna on the Watch compare to the iPhone. Is the reception for making and receiving calls just as good?? TIA
The watch has very limited reception compared to iPhone. In clear areas it won’t have any issues but if you go in a basement or other underground area it’ll lose data connection. You may get cell service or be able to send texts but Siri won’t function.
So, can I answer a call w/ either version watch if on iPhone in a livestream to maintain both audio sources?
Two questions half a year later (for Craig & anyone else)... How often do you go without your phone? And have you noticed you're more likely to go without your phone now that you have a cellular watch?
The geek in me wants a cellular watch (tablet too)... But I almost never go out without my phone. I probably pull my phone out less when I'm wearing my watch, sure... But I don't know if I'd want to go totally without it. Would that likely change much if the watch could get online itself or would I likely always have the phone on me anyway?
Sounds crazy but I’ve had a series 5 cellular for almost 2 years……I’ve come to realize I am rarely ever without my phone and most times I’ve had to find my phone while using my watch to talk because of the connection! Also it’s so hard to text on the Watch….speech to text is even worst because Siri does not recognize any Hawaiian names 😆 so again I would have to find my phone to text easier!
...I have watch 4...I forgot I had cellular with it till I watched this video. I always have my iPhoneXsMax with me...
Super vid! I also have a cellular iWatch series 6,& this is the first of your vids I’ve watched. Thanks much for all the needed info! Gotta go put it to good use,for good times!🎉☺️🎉
What about battery life? Is that the same on GPS and cellular?
I like going on walks and bike rides with only my watch. I listen to podcasts, and music.
Is it possible to use cellular when iPhone is not nearby?
Yes. ❤
Hi Yo Craig, this is one of the best reviews I have ever seen on UA-cam. Absolutely packed with info. required that can influence the decision making. Loved it! I am gonna og with Cellular Series 7. One quick question, do you have any recommendations on Stainless Vs Aluminium versions? I mean the MOC.
You are too kind. Thank you very much🙏. Being tech I would save the money and go aluminum. That savings justifies upgrading a little sooner than I would if I spend the stainless steel money. If money doesn’t matter, stainless would be cool. With Aluminum you risk more dings and scratches. Knock on wood, I have been good so far. The stainless steel is much tougher but will show more fine scratches like other stainless steel. But those can be buffed out most of time.
Great video. Does the family feature for multiple Apple Watches only work on iPhones or does also work on the new iPad Air?
iPhone only.
@@jaimeguzman5795 ok
I wonder if Can use IFTTT, with the Apple Watch.
I purchased the cellular - helps when your getting your cracked phone fixed. Your still connected while that is being done and you can go out on the lake (not ocean) and not worry about damage.
Would it still work when your phone is off ???
Heyy this happened to me as well😂
@@jizxhd2699 Yes, it still works. Kinda duplicate Phone Service
Thanks for all the great tips and advice. 👍
Thank you very much Mark for saying that. I’m glad that you enjoyed the videos. Thank you for watching. Have a great day.
Can you see live view on ring app cctv with the cellular or is it just a snapshot like the gps watch?
Is it possible to connect apple watch 6 cellular model to iphone with bluetooth connectivity or we need to connect only through cellular connectivity?
Also: safety features for women walking or jogging alone, emergency 911 features, or a quick help for an older person who has perhaps fallen or had a mishap. Curious what the difference in battery life is between the GPS versus cellular versions.
GPS is obviously much better as it doesnt keep searching for a signal.
@@ExplorerOfTheGalaxyAs long as it is in bluetooth range to the phone it shouldn’t search for signal I think.
@@_icscata_ It shouldn't, but it's a tracking device. So it does track you from every other minute. NSA thanks you.
WOW! Its something that's cheaper in Norway, I only pay four dollars to my carrier for the Apple Watch Celluar service!
I have a question. Can you use bus tickets on the Apple Watch? Such as first bus people in the UK xx
Thank you for your interesting video but I would like to know if I can make phone calls using my Bluetooth headphones which’s connected to the watch and not using the mic of the watch?
I just went for an hour and a half long walk with just my cellular apple watch series 3. I listened to music the whole time, tracked my walk in the workout app, paid for items in a few shops, tracked my drink intake and made a phone call. It was 95% when I left the house, and 18% when I got back!! I love using cellular and not having to carry my big phone with me, but my god, the battery is bad. 😆 I would recommend going watch-only for walks and trips to the shop, but definitely not for the whole day! I'm hoping to upgrade to the series 6 at some point - hopefully the battery is better on there!
Hello Leah thank you for sharing your experience. I am there with you and ditching the phone at home. I don’t think people realize how much of a distraction the phone can be until you leave it at home and use just the watch. You definitely can’t do a full day with the watch on cellular all day. Thank you for watching. Enjoy your cellular Apple Watch. The series 6 is a nice upgrade. I think at this point in time I would just wait for the series 7 in September or October.
You can sync audiobooks from Audible to your watch and choose if you want to listen from your watch or your iPhone.
That is a great feature. Thank you for mentioning it. It’s good for people to know that is an option. Thanks for watching. Have a great day.
Thanks now my doubts about purchase are cleared I am going to buy 44mm cellular.
Can my apple watch be with truphone plan, but keeping my iphone service plan with a different carrier?
