So after order the ultra 7 watch last week.. I found there's only one version wifi/LTE so... Should we ask our carrier for a extra line for the watch if we want to have it connected all the time??

I will use it wifi mode for now.. And you people?

Basically, yes. If you want to use the LTE capability and remain connected to cell service while away from your phone (during sports, for example) you will need to request your carrier to add another line to your account for your wearable. I currently have an additional line on my AT&T account for my Watch 5 Pro for an additional $10 per month. I think I have recently seen an ad from T-Mobile offering an additional line for $7.50 per month. Without the additional line, you will connect to your phone via Bluetooth and will lose connection when out of range. Cheers.

I've used the bezel to navigate through the menu, tiles, settings, etc.
My husband has the bezel but isn't using your finger to scroll which I do on my 40mm pretty much the same. I have small wrist and have never had the bigger watch since the Active 2 but now I kind of wish I had gotten the 7 I think it's 43 or 44mm. I would never do the ultra but I'm sure I'll be fine with the 40mm. I thought I had read it went from 1.3 to 1.5 but elsewhere I read it's the same 1.3. But yeah somepeople I guess it's easier to do the bezel.

Going from the 5 to the 6 I think it went from 1.2 to 1.3 and I told my husband for some reason I could tell a difference and it was easier to read text and see it I don't know maybe it was just me thinking so but I was so glad I upgraded. But now I am wondering if I would of like the bigger one but it would probably look too big on my arm. And I got such a good deal that for 45 bucks I better stick with it.

I read an article yesterday wish I could find it from the 15th that said Samsung upped there trade in for the watches and that the watch 6 they were giving $250 I only got $200 anyone seen this? Unless he was figuring in the $50 off but I don't think so. And then I thought maybe it was a deal cause of prime day 1 or 2 days only or the article was wrong cause I checked, and it still said $200 late last night.

My watch changed to coming tomorrow instead of the 24th. Long story but I hit cancel and ordered over again under husbands account cause I chose the wrong band and it was going to be even cheaper by 10 bucks $39.99 I paid $49.99 and within 1-2 minutes I see I didn't pick a reason for my cancel and when I did it said too late can't cancel and shows shipped will be here tomorrow. I am glad but I had to hurry and cancel under his account it's just a mess all over a band but the band I wanted cost $44 bucks I don't want it that bad I just didnt want 2 of the same oh well. But I canceled and re-ordered his buds pro 3 cause of color now his are coming tomorrow also. My silver ones went from August 24th to the 14th. And I canceled and re-ordered mine due to not getting the $50 off so our credit card will be a mess charges and credits. But I think today I cancelled before it could even get charged.

If you trade in for the 7 ultra with watch 5 or 6, you'll get $250. If you trade in for watch 7, you'll get $200.

Oh maybe that was it the 250 for the watch 6 was if you bought the ultra that sounds right. O baby believe mines coming tomorrow instead of the 24th. It's the buds I really can't wait to try but my husband will get his tomorrow I hope he likes them.

Mine still have cancel button. Does that mean it has not shipped?
Yes cuz mine still had the cancel button and I went to cancel and didn't finish why I wanted to cancel and complete it and next thing I knew a minute later when I went to complete it said cannot cancel and said shipped coming tomorrow I was shocked. I knew my husband's buds were coming tomorrow but not my watch it was supposed to come on the 24th It peviously said in process so if you still have the cancel button I don't think it's been shipped.

I agree about the style. My sister has a Watch 5 & it somehow looks naked to me without the rotating bezel.

For some reason, I can not dismiss phone calls or reminders on my Watch 6 using my finger. Doesn't matter how much I slide, swipe, drag... ☹️. I need the bezel to dismiss them. I must be swipe deficient. 😄
Never had the bezel but I to have trouble if I'm getting a call getting to swipe it to decline.

I ordered the watch 7 40 mm. I like a smaller watch since I have small wrists. With trade in, it was $49 plus tax. My watch 6 is okay, but for whatever reason I never liked it as much as my Active 2. Maybe watch 7 will be just what I want. I really don’t like the larger watches. They look like a brick on my wrist.
I have small wrists too and I had the active 2 and then the watch five and when I got the six it was so much better the screen was just a hair bigger but for me I could tell it was a big difference. And I think it only went from 1.2 to 1.3 and I read this one was going to be 1.5 and then I read it's going to be the same 1.3. And I kind of wished I've gotten the bigger one it was only $30 more but now I'm glad I did my wrists are small and I think it would be too big for me to.

Yea my wife Watch 7 is coming today but my Ultra seems to delayed.
Glad we're off today . I am sitting here having my coffee looking out the window for our delivery. I wish I didn't have to wait till the 14th of next month for my silver buds 3 he changed his mind and we had to cancel his cause he wanted white now and they must not be as popular and are available now. I just took pictures of my watch 6 and need to do a backup. One year I traded in an Active 2 and had pictures and everything and they tired to say I sent in a wrong watch and sent me back a picture of a different watch. They fixed it though I was so mad. Is their a buds' thread here? Now if you order either color it says 8/28.

Definitely take pictures & a video if you can. When I traded in my Watch 3 on my Watch 6 Classic, I received a rejection email stating containing pictures that I had sent in a broken flip. 😲 I was able to get it resolved.

Yeah, most people do get it resolved but still. I am mad now my order says watch has an unexpected delay and then my husband's buds say the same thing even though he sees UPS coming today which could be something different. I just read an article about the buds having problems and the new expected ship date being August 28th. So hopefully the issue will be resolved by August 14th when mine are supposed to be here. And now my UPS app says out for delivery weird wonder why under my orders it shows delayed.

It's definitely aggravating to have to go through the procedure of getting a trade-in issue resolved.

Seems like it's a guessing game when our items will arrive. Samsung & UPS or FedEx are never on the same page. I've had things delivered & Samsungs site still showed something like awaiting carrier pickup.

Well I was getting ready to call Samsung and complain that we took off work today and under our orders it says delayed but if UPS shows out for delivery I will wait it out and see before I call. It says between 3:30 and 7:30 and we are going out around 5:30 or 6 but our driver puts it in our garage with UPS. Fed-Ex we never could get it set up that way.

Don't worry about Samsung showing unexpected delay. When I got my shipped notice yesterday (7/18) the text said shipped on 7/17 with expected delivery 7/18. When UPS updated with origin scan with nee delivery eta of today my Samsung account updated to show unexpected delay and I got the delay email.

The delay was just goong from initial UPS eta of 7/18 to 7/19

My watch just came and hubby got his buds gonna set up watch now. I hope Samsung does me right they said call and gave me a ticket number to return my band for another one cause I goofed and got 2 exact same bands. I get told so many different answered from Samsung people now they are saying she told me wrong I have to return the whole order. I am like just give me a promo code to get the band I want or I will return and not re-order lol but it's no big deal. I am waiting on a supervisor. But what is this that's in my box?

Edit: Well the cream sports band I want is out of stock anyway but a real nice supervisor is sending me a return label for my one fabric band since I got 2 identical and a promo code for the band I want when it comes in stock. She said it takes 24 hours for the order to show up on their end as being delivered. And the watch doesn't really look cream to me it looks silver. And she said I just need to send back the watch no band once we did no band and last time was told band so I will probably put an old one in the box.
