The latest collection of gadgets from Samsung are absolutely the best they have made. You won't be disappointed. I got the watch 3 , buds live and note 20 ultra. All bad ass. Get it you won't be disappointed
Watch is absolutely fantastic with battery life, goes a day and half pretty much 2 days, not as good as pebble, but for the features I'm getting adjusted to it and honestly the features are worth it. Watch has a microphone and speaker, been using it as a BT audio for calls. Talk into the watch on wrist and communicate with the other person.
Got mine coming tomorrow 👍 the 40mm I have the galaxy watch 42mm but wanted something lighter and smaller was going to get the G3 but it's not a lot thinner and still looks big on my wrist so went for the active 2 as it's a lot cheaper £231 in UK and the G3 is £400 No brainer
I have a Gear S3 and an Active 2. I am now trying out the Watch 3. The sleep monitoring on the Active 2 and Watch 3 don't read my sleep as well as the Gear S3. All other functions are great. My Gear S3 battery is not lasting as well as it did new. I am impressed with the battery life of the Watch 3. I have changed the leather band to my Gear S3 original band. I prefer the Active 2 original band.
I found my Galaxy Watch 3 in the display case at the local Target. They honored the online price of 399.99 vs the 429.99. The Target app doesn't acknowledge any inventory in the stores in the Pittsburgh PA area, yet there were 4 in the display case. My Gear S3 Frontier was an LTE version and it became a nuisance because of the phone number that was assigned was being bombarded with texts and calls that were not meant for me. I got T-Mobile to close the phone line off and basically turn it into a bluetooth phone. Works great for my lifestyle.
Thank you for your review, I been searching for videos that are more specific on bluetooth versus LTE, yours so far has been very informative and I think based on preference and a little more of being able to pay the extra fee for LTE is well worth it. I just wish the the watch3 titanium version would come out in LTE. Hoping it will, maybe not, I may hold out for a little while. Really want to get it, but I'll wait.
Thanks for covering LTE model which was really needed. Appreciate for clarifying the MST support. I wish you had elaborated more on two main features: Phone Calls & Text Messaging. You briefly said the watch only works with Samsung Messaging. So how does the text messaging work on non-Samsung phones? Android or iPhone? Same question for phone calls. So the LTE model gets phone calls forwarded to it through LTE data connection? Meaning that if you phone is off, you won't get calls or text messages?
their is an altimeter and barometer so it can do air pressure trends you just need to install the free app from the store it has Samsung health that dose all your vital sine tracking and can even track your sleep patterns and a on board thermometer on it used for anything but making sure it dose not over heat would be pointless because 1 the watch is not at an ambulant temp because of your body heat and the heat it generates by running so it can't measure the room temp accurately and 2 your wrist is not an accurate place to take you own temp from but with a weather app installed you can get temps for your location
today I went into our local store and checked this out for myself. Man, when I will buy this it''' be purely for weight. I am very happy with the performance of my present SGW 46mm, but even after all this time I had it, the weight of this watch is still an issue for me. It's so cool to see that Samsung has addressed the weight issue.
Haven't spent $1300 on a phone to leave it at home! For 95% of people the LTE model practically speaking is pointless. LTE also has the additional costs of an activation fee on your carrier and a monthly fee. Only useful for the 5% because of work restrictions or extremely long runs without phone.
I always leave my phone at home when I am walking, mountain biking, running, just heading to a Cafe etc. That way I can leave my wallet at home, use the samsung pay on the phone, disconnect from the distraction of the phone and be in the moment but not miss an important call from my wife etc, also use spotify for music. We all spend way too much time on our phones and it's not healthy. I have the watch 3 45mm LTE. I also have Galaxy Frontier LTE. The biggest difference I notice is the speed of the device and the watch 3 screen is much brighter and clearer, which is strange because I think it has the same resolution?
@@blindtrader4103 You are part of that 5%. For the majority, their phones are on them or with them. If one truly wants to disconnect then you don't want any of these things let alone radiation magnet on you 24/7. Only scenario I might not carry my phone with or on me is mountain biking and that is not enough for me to pay $50 premium on the watch and additional $120+ a year for the LTE connection just to potentially make or take a couple of calls a year on it. When I disconnect, I disconnect and instead focus on the nature around me and me.
@@alexdublin2673 I'm trying to decide between the 2 models. With the Bluetooth model is it possible to download Spotify songs to listen while running? And is it able to track GPS?
I have the Active Watch 2....I'm liking the idea of the LTE. I use Garmin for most of my running/biking activities, but I enjoy the Samsung for my indoor workouts. I'd love to have the ability to make calls without a phone in an emergency situation.
That's exactly why they have the LTE model to give us the freedom of not needing our phone when we go out for a run but still be connected if we need to make a call or respond to a message
What a downgrade Samsung! The galaxy watch active 2 LTE with 44mm Is better on RAM management it has 1.5 gb of ram compared to 1 gb of ram here. It is 50% more and it is huge. My actual active 2 44mm holds me just 8 hours from 8 am to 4 pm if it is LTE and always on display activated, compared to the first galaxy watch which has 470 mha battery which was aimed to hold you the whole day if it is standalone on lte connections. It was 50% more battery juice and it is huge. Great video as usual Thank you
@@tonyd.uz.3222 About whatssapp of you live in Europe like me you don't have the application on galaxy store. But when I am on lte mode and leave my phone home, i recieve remotely all my WhatsApp and instagram and messenger no problem, BUT you have to be connected remotly to your phone, so if your phone is on and you recieve any kind of notification it will send it remotely to the watch wherever you are connected to 4G network
Excellent and consise review. I have the 45mm non-LTE. With my notifications on and daily 15km walk exercise, the battery lasts about 20hr. I still think it is a good upgrade from my Galaxy watch. I have got the subscribe button.
Google messages will most definitely work on this watch. You have to enable notifications for Google messages and disable notifications for Samsung messages.
I kind of want the LTE model because I have the Galaxy Fold 2 and as delicate as the phone is, I don't want to bring my phone around water or such activities, and I thought having my watch would be beneficial in that matter
Hello sir, just wondering what if I buy lte version and don't want to start a plan, should I be able to link my watch to smartphone and use Bluetooth and GPS?
Just to clarify one thing, you can use third-party messaging apps and get the notifications on the watch. However, the messages won't sync unless you use the Samsung app. So if you want to see old text messages and you're using a third party app you have to check on your phone.
i have the first galaxy watch and the active 2 which i used in water swimming activities in my house pool and both of them have hold the claim of being ip68. this galaxy 3 did not hold even just one swimming time after just 3 weeks of ownership. send it to Samsung care and they won't honor the warranty and want me to pay 220 for the repair. if you're planning to use it on water like swimming i would not recommend to buy it. update: received the watch from the repair center and the back cover of the watch was broken, 3 of the 4 holes that keep it on please where broken. and was hanging by the cable from the sensor attached to the main board on the case.
I have the Samsung Watch 3 BT (via the Samsung trade-in deal) great watch but I bought the LTE on the Active 2 and wow, did that little device cost me a bundle! I paid for the watch outright. So the monthly with AT&T was at least $40 a month for LTE. Too much money for what little use LTE brings
I don't know if you'll reply but I just finally got my Watch 3 but Verizon has had many issues getting the watch to work with LTE. I've had to re-pair and reset the watch on phone with Verizon tech support 3 times and still can't use the watch other than bluetooth. Sad to spend the extra $ to get LTE and then can't use it. My Verizon support says he's heard this from others also. Have you heard these issues? Fixes?
Hi I was wondering if you can get your watch to work with lte yet, as I am going to buy one but I’m unsure now reading you comment. I’m mainly buying it because you don’t need to be near your phone at all. Thank you
@@juliemathias8107 3rd time was the charm. Yes it's working fine now. I think it was software issues with Verizon that now have been fixed. The watch will work with all carriers so that's a new aspect that needed to be figured out. I'm happy now...all is good.
Can you leave your phone at home, go abroad with your watch and still connect, communicate with your friends and families? Does the length of distance from you main phone matter?
I have never used a smartwatch and am planning to get one the Galaxy Watch 3 45mm. I don't mind charging once every 24hrs. I would however be going with Bluetooth only models and will have AOD. As for heart rate monitor and other stuff, I won't be using regularly. Will have 1 hr workout. Don't like the gwa2. Will it last me a day or should I go with the OG GW 46mm?
Hi. Thanks 4 a great video. I had the galaxy watch. It came out about a year or 2 ago. It was mandatory to update the app on the phone every 2-3 weeks or it could not be used. Is that the same issue with the active 2 and the watch 3. That becames annoying after a while.
Great review, thanks. I have a SGWA2 44mm and battery life is about 3 - 4 days. Now wonder If a take SGW3. If I used mostly with Bluetooth connection, and maybe 1-2 hours at LTE, will the battery last more than a day? I hope at least 2 days battery life?
What watch band is this? I like the way it looks. I have a silicone one and im looking for one that is a little more "stiff" than my current silicone one.
I am using the it on the V60 right now and it seems to definitely be lacking some features. I will receive the Note 20 tommorow. I will update after I receive it.
The new watch3 has less battery + bigger screen than older galaxy watch (472 vs 340MAh). Is the new Tizen + BT 5.0 will really give more battery lifetime than an old watch? The only reason why interested - its blood pressure, but this feature is not available on the launch. Sounds really disappointing :(
I'm asking on this watch how many days does the battery last when using GPS? Also does this one have the Golf Course application for all the golf courses or most of them that can be played by using GPS?
This is a huge price to pay for a watch with features not useful to me, and that battery life is bad. Samsung watches have gone down hill since the GW OG. I’ll keep my Gear S3 Classic as this GW3 watch surely is not worth the upgrade, imo. Pretty sad....
How is call audio quality when using it for phone calls? I saw Spotify, does it support Pandora and RUclips Music when you are not connected to the phone? When you are on LTE? Thanks TK
Thanks for mentioning that they removed MST. That's a deal breaker for me. I have been using my Gear S3 Frontier even at really old terminals. It works 98% of times! Don't see a point in switching to Watch3 without MST. Kinda stupid of them to remove it in a new model!
They removed it, to cut down on size, and improve battery life since the battery is smaller. Bad move to me as well. At least my Note 20 Ultra has MST. Used it to pay for coffee this morning. I do have the Galaxy Watch 3 though, and love it.
I just got mine yesterday its takes some time to get use to it. Only thing, im having Spotify connections issues between watch and phone... idk what do to I've tried reseting but nothing...ooo and all while using the galaxy buds. I have s20 ultra i shouldn't be having to deal with that.
Can you add as many apps from the play store or tizent restricts it? I use apple music on my android phone. Can i listen if i buy the LTE version? Thanks for the video.
Samsung needs to bring back MST. Its the only reason why I haven't upgraded from my Gear S3. Samsung always has a nack of removing important features just cause they feel people aren't using it. I work in small areas a lot of times for my job and I've noticed at these small corner stores and even post offices, they don't have the upgraded pay terminals....with MST you can still tap to pay, even if it's an older system. Thanks again Samsung for making me have to carry around 2 devices when the lte should have made this a one and done device
Can ya tell me if I buy the lte version can I just take the Sim card out of my phone and put it in my watch? Some times I just don't want to carry my phone.
Currently have Galaxy watch. Have had samsung watches since Samsung's first watch. Every single one was great for first year or so. Then not so much. Right now mine went from registering 40 plus floors climbed while I'm in bed asleep?! To no floors at all any time. Alti baromoter will wildly go up or down thousands of feet again while I'm watching Netflix in my living room. So is 500 bucks for a watch that's only reliable in the warranty period? You tell me
I really wish if Samsung would have launched note 20 and note 20ultra with Snapdragon soc in India rather than the old exynos processor which really isn't upto the mark
I have the gear frontier lte. Mostly so I can call 911 mountain biking without bringing my phone. Love my watch. Would upgrade for Apple style heart monitor otherwise, I'll keep what I have
i just purchased the 42mm galaxy watch and im getting disconnects on my Huawei p20 but tbh im not sure if its my phone or the watch that is causing the problem other than that the watch is great
bought the active 2 a few months ago and had the same problem with my p20 pro. now with the oppo find x2 pro everything works fine. maybe the watches dont work that good with bluetooth 4.2 on none-Samsung phones.
well the watches definitely work the best with Samsung devices but ive been thinkering with the app launch on my p20 since i thought the extreme battery saving on huawei devices could be the problem so i turned all the apps that control the watch such as the wearable app and the plugin to manage manually and left the wearable app running in the background and so far no disconnects
Lte is more expensive since it allows you to connect to a mobile network using esim, and make calls, messages, internet browsing and music and radio streaming without a phone.
Is using samsung galaxy watch 3 with samsung Note 20 ultra gives access to three numbers in the same time, I mean two from smartphone + one from the watch
Might wanna do some fact checking there sir. Using LTE alone on the samsung galaxy watch 3...you can use Google's native messaging app and still receive your text I we LTE just fine on the watch...at least using Verizon number share feature.
Just to understand it correctly, I can go for a run with the watch only and listen to my spotify and keep tracking of the run. Or do I need to take my phone with me? Is it only possible with the LTE version?
I would like to kno if anyone knows . Are the speakers and mics the same on both versions ? I feel on the Bluetooth version on a phone call is really low since having a Samsung gear 2 and it was louder
@@KeithDII well ive had it for about 2 weeks now and haven't connected to LTE so im ok with just bluetooth i was thinking of the days when i just want to jog and not have a big phone in my shorts just my watch and ear buds ya know
@@dequince38 how are you liking it? I'm about to pull the trigger in one and can't decide between LTE or Bluetooth. It will be my first smart watch. Kinda leaning towards the LTE version.
@@KeithDII the only gripe i have is the battery life ...i upgraded from the active 2 so im used to not charging it as much but other than that im liking it there is really no difference between the LTE and the bluetooth version so if you're sold on the galaxy 3 i would just go with the bluetooth version...the next option would be the active 2 but once you get the feel and the look of the galaxy 3 with the added Bezel there's no going back lol..so it depends on your budget and style ...does that make sense? To be honest i forgot i had the LTE version lol
I have the active 2 lte and I think watch 3 is the same, on my s20 ultra i use extra for my messaging app. I still get messages to my watch. i can even reply or send messages from my watch, a pop up comes up informing me that Samsung messaging is not my default messaging app and would I like to set Samsung as the default I just close this and it still sends receives.
You can make Call foward from your phone to watch 3 instead lime gear s3 remotely transfer phone call from phone to watch at least T mobile van do that for there customers but voicmail will answer from your watch not your Phone this is helpful for business folks that using phone and and if you leave phone in office and if not answering instead go to your phone voicmail will ring your watch saparate phone number if you don't answer will go to watch voicmail but you have to pay 10$ for watch separate phone line I hope this was helpful at least work for me

Google messages will most definitely work on this watch. You have to enable notifications for Google messages and disable notifications for Samsung messages.

Best review on the watch so far!
Just picked up a his and hers combo.
Traded my GW 46mm LTE for $160 and got her watch free.
Great deal.
Thanks for awesome explanation.
Just have a question can I use this watch with iPhone 12 pro.
Yes you can just download the Samsung companion app from the app store
@@TKBay thanks again
Where can I get a band like the one that's on the watch?
You actually can use google assistant, I had it on the og Galaxy Watch
How? Please tell me
woldoor sockbat there’s a video on RUclips I believe it may have been a guy jabber tech that showed how. Search it should come up
Download Samsung internet app. You can use Google search by voice thru it on the watch
I was surprised to see you are in Santa Clarita. I used to live there almost 2 years ago. Before that I was in Lancaster. Now I am in Simi Valley.
Small world
How long can you listen downloaded music on a watch with single charge?
So as a non Samsung Android user, is this watch worth it or will I be locked out of most of the useful features
I am using the it on the V60 right now and it seems to definitely be lacking some features. I will receive the Note 20 tommorow. I will update after I receive it.
@@rl00821116 Can you name the missing features? How does receiving text messages work over lte? How about phone calls over lte?
You need a Samsung Galaxy to get used the full future's on this watch
Thank you for the info
The new watch3 has less battery + bigger screen than older galaxy watch (472 vs 340MAh). Is the new Tizen + BT 5.0 will really give more battery lifetime than an old watch? The only reason why interested - its blood pressure, but this feature is not available on the launch. Sounds really disappointing :(
With the always on face it's worst. The 2.5 days is with raise to wake option.
I didn't like the leather band either. I used my original band from my Gear S3 watch.
Thank you for the video. Link for watch band please?? 😄
I'm asking on this watch how many days does the battery last when using GPS? Also does this one have the Golf Course application for all the golf courses or most of them that can be played by using GPS?
From Italians reviews, I can tell you that it does 2 and a half days using GPS 1 hour/day
Talking about 45 mm version, without lte
This is a huge price to pay for a watch with features not useful to me, and that battery life is bad. Samsung watches have gone down hill since the GW OG. I’ll keep my Gear S3 Classic as this GW3 watch surely is not worth the upgrade, imo. Pretty sad....
I'm thankful I don't pay taxes in my state. No state income tax or sales tax. It's the live Free or die state!
You order this at amazon also is this unlock lte works with any carrier and how do you like it so far?
very useful and amazing device ❤️🔥
What strap are you using? Thanks!
I’ve enjoyed a few of your videos I just found, but I’m subscribing because of you obvious love of DBZ haha
I appreciate you being a fan of the #dbz Manga and thank you for the support
Thank you
I feel it's something you need to try to feel the need, i tried a cheap smartband and now i need that thing an it has not many features
It's one of those thing that you don't need it, but want it
How is call audio quality when using it for phone calls?
I saw Spotify, does it support Pandora and RUclips Music when you are not connected to the phone? When you are on LTE?
Thanks TK
Great. My wife cant tell Im talking to her through the watch. Very impressive

Thanks for the reply!
Thanks for mentioning that they removed MST. That's a deal breaker for me. I have been using my Gear S3 Frontier even at really old terminals. It works 98% of times! Don't see a point in switching to Watch3 without MST. Kinda stupid of them to remove it in a new model!
They removed it, to cut down on size, and improve battery life since the battery is smaller. Bad move to me as well. At least my Note 20 Ultra has MST. Used it to pay for coffee this morning. I do have the Galaxy Watch 3 though, and love it.
I just got mine yesterday its takes some time to get use to it. Only thing, im having Spotify connections issues between watch and phone... idk what do to I've tried reseting but nothing...ooo and all while using the galaxy buds. I have s20 ultra i shouldn't be having to deal with that.
Try contacting samsung about those issues
Hi. At last video for LTE of GW3. Thanks. How does WhatsApp work? Call, messages, audio .. everything ok if I leave my phone for a few hours at home?
Hi, is the LTE watch working with e-sim if the phone switched off / the phone's battery died? TIA
Yes, mine does.
Can you add as many apps from the play store or tizent restricts it? I use apple music on my android phone. Can i listen if i buy the LTE version? Thanks for the video.
Only Spotify subscription. You can save to watch however up to 8 gigs
Samsung needs to bring back MST. Its the only reason why I haven't upgraded from my Gear S3. Samsung always has a nack of removing important features just cause they feel people aren't using it. I work in small areas a lot of times for my job and I've noticed at these small corner stores and even post offices, they don't have the upgraded pay terminals....with MST you can still tap to pay, even if it's an older system. Thanks again Samsung for making me have to carry around 2 devices when the lte should have made this a one and done device
Can ya tell me if I buy the lte version can I just take the Sim card out of my phone and put it in my watch? Some times I just don't want to carry my phone.
Watch is nowadays don't use SIM cards they use esims, and you can't just switch them around you have to call your carrier
Currently have Galaxy watch. Have had samsung watches since Samsung's first watch. Every single one was great for first year or so. Then not so much. Right now mine went from registering 40 plus floors climbed while I'm in bed asleep?! To no floors at all any time. Alti baromoter will wildly go up or down thousands of feet again while I'm watching Netflix in my living room. So is 500 bucks for a watch that's only reliable in the warranty period? You tell me
I really wish if Samsung would have launched note 20 and note 20ultra with Snapdragon soc in India rather than the old exynos processor which really isn't upto the mark
they really should just move to an all QC SOC. I am with you on that
Try importing from Hong Kong via wonda mobile, that's what I'm considering. Absolutely agree Snapdragon all the way 😎👍
Watching this on a note 20 ultra with the Galaxy watch 3 top of the line(LTE,GPS and WI-FI)
I have the gear frontier lte. Mostly so I can call 911 mountain biking without bringing my phone. Love my watch. Would upgrade for Apple style heart monitor otherwise, I'll keep what I have
Can bluetooth also make calls??
i just purchased the 42mm galaxy watch and im getting disconnects on my Huawei p20 but tbh im not sure if its my phone or the watch that is causing the problem other than that the watch is great
bought the active 2 a few months ago and had the same problem with my p20 pro. now with the oppo find x2 pro everything works fine. maybe the watches dont work that good with bluetooth 4.2 on none-Samsung phones.
well the watches definitely work the best with Samsung devices but ive been thinkering with the app launch on my p20 since i thought the extreme battery saving on huawei devices could be the problem so i turned all the apps that control the watch such as the wearable app and the plugin to manage manually and left the wearable app running in the background and so far no disconnects
I have a confusion which one is more expensive bt of lte
And whais difference between them
Lte is more expensive since it allows you to connect to a mobile network using esim, and make calls, messages, internet browsing and music and radio streaming without a phone.
Can i connect wireless bluetooth headset and smartwatch. if connect which one is play song
Yes you can. At least on the galaxy watch i own. It has a setting to connect to the headset and it will play on them whilist connected to the phone
You def can
Is using samsung galaxy watch 3 with samsung Note 20 ultra gives access to three numbers in the same time, I mean two from smartphone + one from the watch
Where did you get the rubber band?... I'm getting the GW3 on Monday and don't want the leather band.
I know some health features have activated. Do they work?
Not worth it but I was able to pick up for around 100 dollars with trade in of Galaxy Watch
Might wanna do some fact checking there sir. Using LTE alone on the samsung galaxy watch 3...you can use Google's native messaging app and still receive your text I we LTE just fine on the watch...at least using Verizon number share feature.
Will the notification settings be available for OnePlus devices .??
Hey pal I have an iPhone and Samsung phone. Can I connect both devices to this watch at a time? Sorry I'm a noob🙈
Just to understand it correctly, I can go for a run with the watch only and listen to my spotify and keep tracking of the run. Or do I need to take my phone with me? Is it only possible with the LTE version?
No need for your phone
Yeah!!!!!!! Dragon balll super!!!! 👍
Please please help. Can i just go to Vodafone and pick up a prepaid sim and use this phone like a phone. Different number than my current phone?
No mention of the LTE set up or functionality.
I would like to kno if anyone knows . Are the speakers and mics the same on both versions ? I feel on the Bluetooth version on a phone call is really low since having a Samsung gear 2 and it was louder
How much is your monthly payment for LTE? I ordered the LTR version by accident but i don't want to have to pay a lot extra for the LTE service
@@TheReal_Invictus ok so the watch is paid for and i only pay 40 a month through Tmobile so 50 a month all together isnt bad thank you!
Do you have to connect to LTE? Was thinking you could just use it as a Bluetooth watch if you wanted to.
@@KeithDII well ive had it for about 2 weeks now and haven't connected to LTE so im ok with just bluetooth i was thinking of the days when i just want to jog and not have a big phone in my shorts just my watch and ear buds ya know
@@dequince38 how are you liking it? I'm about to pull the trigger in one and can't decide between LTE or Bluetooth. It will be my first smart watch. Kinda leaning towards the LTE version.
@@KeithDII the only gripe i have is the battery life ...i upgraded from the active 2 so im used to not charging it as much but other than that im liking it there is really no difference between the LTE and the bluetooth version so if you're sold on the galaxy 3 i would just go with the bluetooth version...the next option would be the active 2 but once you get the feel and the look of the galaxy 3 with the added Bezel there's no going back lol..so it depends on your budget and style
...does that make sense? To be honest i forgot i had the LTE version lol
I have the active 2 lte and I think watch 3 is the same, on my s20 ultra i use extra for my messaging app. I still get messages to my watch. i can even reply or send messages from my watch, a pop up comes up informing me that Samsung messaging is not my default messaging app and would I like to set Samsung as the default I just close this and it still sends receives.
What's the difference between lte or Bluetooth? With Bluetooth will it still shows call and can receive calls?
yes notifications transfer over the internet to the watch when you are far away. you need to make sure you service provider supports that feature
@@TKBay will it not work just with Bluetooth to make and receive calls?
Titanium is best let's gooo
Can you stream Spotify music/podcasts during the run? (without downloading it before)
Great question!
Whats the waterproofing like seen as you open it up to add a sim?
They have a ring at the edge to block water from coming in when you put it the sim tray back
Link for watch band ?
So iphone’s messaging app will not work? neither will what’s app or viber?
What about blood pressure and ECG?
You can make Call foward from your phone to watch 3 instead lime gear s3 remotely transfer phone call from phone to watch at least T mobile van do that for there customers but voicmail will answer from your watch not your Phone this is helpful for business folks that using phone and and if you leave phone in office and if not answering instead go to your phone voicmail will ring your watch saparate phone number if you don't answer will go to watch voicmail but you have to pay 10$ for watch separate phone line I hope this was helpful at least work for me
What watch face is that? Thanks
Are the features limited if I use it through Nokia mobiles
what is the watch face you using on video?
What doesn't work if you don't use Samsung's messages? Confused at that
My Google messages notification work on my watch 3
