Poll: ** The official Apple Watch Series 3 thread **

[niroe]

So my watch arrived from EE earlier today. Trying setting up the 4G - error 031.... Call 150 ... Seems like they've got a right mess on their hands, many many people with same error. Response from EE, we'll pass on your details to our device team, expect a call within 72 hours.

broke my series 2 on holiday so now just waiting for travel insurance to pay out and then i'll get another 42mm Series 3. Won't be getting a cellular one.

So...updated my phone the other day and when it powered off my phone switched to 4g, surely it should connect to WiFi?

Within fifteen minutes of getting mine, I was walking around the block talking to a friend. On Wednesday, I was in a public toilet when my watch rang because I'd left my phone in the car! Yes, no problems.

Yup, straight off.

Does this need an iPhone to function? Currently got a Samsung s8 plus but will be getting the iPhone X when it releases..

Starting a new job tomorrow where I will be very active and was interested in the apple watch

 

[HAz]

Was sat down in a quiet room earlier, heard a random beep followed by someone’s voice, took me a few seconds to notice my watch had rung the emergency services

Thats seriously bad you know - not funny at all, unimpressed with that, anyway of making sure the watch wont do it again?

I’ve turned that feature off now, it’s strange as the watch wasn’t pressed against my wrist, no idea how it managed to call the services.

 

[Feek]

Hmm, considering it needs a long push on the button and then a swipe, I'd be tempted to ask online Apple support about that to see if they have any suggestions.

It was under my jacket though so maybe it was me through movement.

Had some screen protectors turn up today, they are great, perfect fit, can’t see it’s on unless you look for it.

Well my S3 has arrived, forgot how lovely the Apple watch design is.

All setup in minutes, apple pay sorted, will be off for a run this weekend and working my way to free monthly payments!

How do you charge this on the go? Say you are travelling to Australia, potentially a 30 hour journey with connections.

Portable battery, I have an anker 28000mah battery which will give my phone 6 full charges from 0-100%, so I reckon I could get 12 charges out of it for the watch.

And now?

Do you run the lead up to your wrist with the pad stuck between the watch and the back of the hand?

Or do you bring the charging pad with the battery too?
