Cellular Apple Watch recommendations

Post by jdrobbo » Sat Sep 16, 2023 1:19 pm

Can anyone recommend a good cellular Apple Watch and approx price?

I want it to be cellular so they I can do long runs with access to calls, texts, Apple Pay and Spotify/BBC Sounds, without the need to carry my phone.

Thank you

I have the 'current' Apple Watch Ultra (they announced the next-gen one, this week.)
I had the series 3 one, which was well past its sell-by date. (Yes, they will all begin to struggle eventually.)
I'm not sure if Spotify works on Apple Watch yet. I run with podcasts, which work well.

I have been looking at the iTit recently. Apple have it in development and its a contraption stored in the breast and plays music from there. Sound quality depends on cup size and shape.

It's supposedly going to be very popular with women and a huge social breakthrough because now men will not only just be looking at them but also listening to womens' chests too

Is my coat on the coat hook, yeah?

I have the Apple Watch SE, which is the entry level if you like, but it's absolutely superb. If I can recommend getting one from anywhere, John Lewis always throw in a 2 year warranty on Apple tech, which I've used once for some AirPods behaving a bit strangely, and the service is great.

SE for me also. Superb bit of kit for monitoring steps and activity levels. It even rings the emergency services if you have a fall. It gives you a bit of time to cancel the call first as on a couple of occasions when I have been hammering a nail in or suchlike it has buzzed and asked if I’d had a fall. 🔨

I finally succumbed last week and got my first Apple Watch. I went for the new series 9. I can’t say too much about it yet because I’m still getting used to it and learning how to use it but it’s just past 3 o’clock.
