Cellular sucks? (alien.top)

I’ve noticed that my cellular doesn’t get signal around places my phone usually does. Is the cellular not as strong on the watch?

Smaller antenna, and less power available, equal poorer connectivity than on a phone. You’ll also notice you only get LTE, again lower power requirement and a smaller antenna keep 5G out of reach. Then again, the most you’ll stream is music, and LTE is a perfectly sound decision to make. It’s not like you’re streaming 8K videos for the watch.
