Denmark, Sweden, India and Taiwan, They already have the models available in Apple stores and authorized resellers. Without a doubt we are facing a device that is costing more than normal to start being marketed in all countries.
The official announcement of the launch for May 11 came about a month ago and now users who want to can already enjoy this model with LTE connectivity. Now we will have to wait for another announcement from Apple to see if it reaches more countries, we may have news at the nearby WWDC in June.
The operators and Apple
It is undoubtedly the main problem in the distribution of the device since it incorporates a sim card inside and the operator is in charge of negotiating sales with Apple. It is curious that for example In France, if they have the Apple Watch Series 3 running with Orange and in Spain they do not, but it is something that can only be solved between companies.
In Taiwan 5 operators will offer LTE for now for the Apple Watch and in other countries there are only one or two, it depends on the country. With the launch of the Apple Watch Series 3 LTE in Denmark, Sweden, India and Taiwan, there are already 16 countries that have it for sale:
- Germany
- Australia
- Canada
- China
- Denmark
- France
- India
- Japan
- Puerto Rico
- Switzerland
- Sweden
- Singapore
- Hong Kong
- United Kingdom
- United States
- Taiwán
Jeff Williams presented us with the new Apple Watch model, on September 15, 2017 and its great novelty or the most outstanding one was the incorporation of LTE, with this, the watch becomes more autonomous and allows making or receiving calls without using the iPhone. In addition, with its improved microphone and speaker, it is no longer necessary to raise your hand to the height of your mouth to carry on a conversation. In Spain we are still waiting for Apple and the operators to agree to launch the new watch, but the next version will be released and we will keep waiting it seems like.
