- delecti 1y agoThey're also called smartwatches, when most of them are pretty useless without a phone. Even if they offload everything to the phone, they're still much "smarter" than normal glasses, which just sit there doing nothing but correcting vision.
- withinboredom 1y agoYou know, I never thought of this until I took my phone into a repair shop. I was just like “give me a call, I have my watch.” Two seconds after I walked out … I was like, “oh, that’s not going to work…” so I just sat around for an hour.
- adrr 1y agoIf you have wifi calling enabled on your mobile account and your watch has wifi connection, you can receive calls to it. Or you can get a watch that has mobile data connection.
- withinboredom 1y agoYou still need the original phone to forward the call. If it is out of commission, nothing will happen.
