Q: What can I do on the apple series 5 watch that's 399.
A: I would recommend going to the Apple site and watching the video about Apple Watch. I have used an Apple Watch for years and have this $399 version. I use it to show temperature on my watch face as well as my activity progress, time and date. I really enjoy the fact that it shows my activity - how many calories I have expended, how many minutes I have exercised, and how many hours I have stood.. It does a great job with showing texts, controlling music or audiobooks that are playing on the phone, tracking work out whether at the gym or walking outside. It will show a map of where are you have walked outside. it also shows incoming phone calls and calls can be answered or declined from the watch. it is a powerful and enjoyable little piece of technology.
A: Don’t need the cellular but phone needs to be nearby have been a good 50 feet from my phone and still got messages
Q: What is the difference between the 5 gps and the 5 gps celler
A: GPS Requires phone to be able to use certain features, like accurate measurements, calling, messaging, etc. GPS CELLULAR does not need a phone to operate; letting you be free of carrying your phone for running, swimming, hiking, etc where a phone may be a drag
A: That’s because the watch comes with both size bands, sm/m and l/xl.
A: Try turning off the always on function. Saved me lots of battery
Q: Can you add Cellular after the fact of purchasing?
A: Only on the Cellular models. The GPS/Wifi only models will need to be tethered to your phone to get texts/most notifications. Cellular models can activate the feature whenever at an additional charge to your phone bill. The feature on the cellular model does not need to be activated.
A: With the GPS model it don't matter which carrier you have. It would just link to your phone. you're not paying for the cell phone service for the watch.
