Apple Watch Series 3 Excels, Even if You Don’t Need Cellular
The main difference with the cellular Apple Watch is
that some important features, like placing calls, texting and streaming music, will work when you are not near your phone; the watch shares the same phone number and cellular plan with your iPhone.
In other words, wearing the Apple Watch Series 3 with cellular connectivity, which Apple will
release Friday, is like owning a leisure phone that is excessive but situationally useful.
But when it comes time to unwind, you can leave the house with just a cellular Apple Watch — the equivalent of the weekend car —
and still have access to a lightweight phone that can handle calls and text messages.
Apple’s first wearable to include cellular may come in handy when you are at the gym
and want to leave your phone in the locker, or when you go out for a run and want to remain reachable.
Apple said music streaming for the cellular watch will come out next month.
To understand why you might want the new cellular Apple Watch, put yourself in the shoes of a wealthy person who drives a weekend car.
