Samsung watch 5 lte

After testing Samsung smartwatches, I’m usually left with a furrowed brow, wondering what could have been. It’s not because they’re bad, ugly, or a pain to wear. Actually, it’s the opposite. Hands down, Samsung’s smartwatches are the best Android users can buy right now, and the $279.99 Galaxy Watch 5 is no exception. (Though that may change once the Google Pixel Watch arrives.) If Samsung would fix one — maybe two — things, its smartwatches would make the Apple Watch yesterday’s news. I was hoping to report that Samsung had finally nailed it, but for better or worse, the Watch 5 is more of the same. The Watch 5 also has many of the same specs as the Watch 4, including the Exynos W920 processor, 1.5GB of RAM, 16GB of internal storage, contactless payments, GPS, optional LTE, contactless payments, and 5ATM of water resistance. You get the same health features via the slightly improved 3-in-1 BioActive sensor — heart rate tracking, ECGs, body composition analysis. Hardware-wise, the only new thing you’re getting is an infrared temperature sensor. That, by the way, doesn’t do much of anything yet. It will allegedly improve sleep tracking accuracy, but as Samsung said during Unpacked, it added the sensor so developers can tinker around creating future health features. As far as software goes, it also runs Wear OS Powered by Samsung (aka Wear OS 3 running a Samsung skin). The I doubt most people will notice the handful of tweaks Samsung has made.

Samsung has Bluetooth and LTE compatible 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. AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon all offer plans for the LTE versions of the different Galaxy Watch models, including the Galaxy Watch5, Galaxy Watch4, and Galaxy Watch Active series. Note: You can activate the mobile network only when you use a phone running the Android operating system 5.0 or later and with 1.5GB of RAM or more. You must be connected to a Wi-Fi or mobile network. Plans and connection method may vary depending on the carrier. These instructions only apply to LTE versions of Samsung smart watches. When you connect your watch to your phone for the first time, you'll see prompts to activate your carrier's service on the watch. Once you've done that, you'll need to finish the activation process. Note: Carrier service cannot be activated outside of the United States on a watch sold for use in the United States. The Galaxy Watch4 and Galaxy Watch5 must be paired with a phone to activate service. You can also check for these numbers in the Galaxy Wearable app. Open the app, and then tap Watch settings or the Home tab. Next, tap About watch, and then tap Device. Here you can see the EID, IMEI, or ICCID. Note: Depending on your model or activation status, your watch may not display the EID or ICCID. © 2023 Samsung Electronics...
