At Apple's autumn conference last year, Apple launched the Apple Watch Series 3(GPS+ cellular network), which supports surfing the Internet and making phone calls independently of the iPhone.
China Unicom, as the only operator supporting smart watch network frequency band, finally announced the opening of "eSIM No.1 dual terminal" service on March 7th.
Today, Apple officially set up its own Apple Watch 3 cellular network platform on WeChat official account, saying that "from now on, no matter whether you are running in the mountains or in the sea, even if your mobile phone is not around, others can call you."
Apple once again stressed that Apple Watch Series 3 has supported the independent use of cellular networks. Now this service is first launched in Shanghai, Tianjin, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Zhengzhou and Changsha, and can be used by binding Unicom.
Extended data:
The third generation of Apple Watch was released together with iPhone X. Last year, Apple planned to make an independent online call for Apple Watch, but it skipped the ticket. On March 23rd, Apple announced that the third-generation Apple Watch supporting cellular networks can do this.
Apple Watch was first released in September of 20 14. Apple Watch can record the user's exercise data, such as steps and heart rate, more accurately than mobile phones.
At the same time, it can also be used as an auxiliary tool for mobile phones to receive messages and make phone calls, but it needs to be connected to the iPhone, and the third-generation Apple Watch does not. The third generation of Apple Watch further liberated users and facilitated them.
The advantage of this function is that, first of all, users no longer have to worry about missing calls during exercise. Of course, there is no need to bring a smart phone that is not as convenient as a watch.
At the same time, you can listen to music independently online and connect with wireless Bluetooth headset AirPods. You can also send and receive text messages independently.
But you need to use the service of China Unicom. At present, it only supports six cities: Shanghai, Tianjin, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Zhengzhou and Changsha.
