How to activate 4G/LTE on Samsung Smartwatches? Well, for the people who own a compatible smartwatch or are looking to buy one. You can check my article for all the 4G compatible smartwatch list in India before you read further.

So, if you own any of the smartwatch listed in the article or if you are planning to buy one, let’s get the questions answered. 4G on Smartwatch comes as an Esim and currently major providers are Reliance Jio and Bharti Airtel in India. Vi (Previously known as Vodafone and Idea in India) offers only for Apple watches currently. Now, I am not talking about any funky smartwatch or any cheap Chinese Smartwatches where you can physically insert a SIM.

Apple Watch and Samsung Galaxy smartwatches are few good options available in India.

How to activate 4G/LTE on Samsung Smartwatches:

  • You might be already using Samsung Galaxy Wear App to connect your Smartwatch.
  • Open your Samsung Galaxy wear App

  • For Airtel and Reliance JIO, there will be different options altogether. Just to confirm, for Airtel you need a Postpaid SIM on your phone to enjoy 4G/LTE for your watch. For Reliance JIO you just need to have a Prepaid connection. When you are on Airtel Postpaid, Apple Watch Cellular can be used free of charge with any Airtel My Plan or Infinity plan. There is no extra cost if you use 4G/LTE services on the smartwatch when you are on Reliance JIO Prepaid connection.

  1. Hello… Where did Apple Watch Cellular come in suddenly?
    We are discussing about Samsung Galaxy. So what still remains un-answered is whether I can use Airtel Postpaid connection and connect to my Samsung Smartwatch using LTE “Free of Cost”.

  2. Hi, Just sharing all related aspect. To answer you question, if you are on Airtel postpaid – There is no extra cost for Watch Data/Calling service.

    1. Hi Hari, no we don’t need to pay extra for Jio. I am using Jio Prepaid and the watch usage is included in the same. Only for Airtel you have to switch from Prepaid to Postpaid.

  3. Hi

    I have airtel postpaid and iPhone. But while setting up the mobile plan, it says something “it does not work with airtel plans”. Should we have only Samsung phones for activating LTE in galaxy watch?

    Thanks
