Experience 4G connectivity on the Apple Watch Series 3 with Singtel’s NumberShare
You know that feeling of panic you have when you reach for your iPhone — only to discover that you’ve left it behind? With the Apple Watch Series 3 (GPS + Cellular) and Singtel NumberShare, you can actually leave your phone behind on purpose.
NumberShare is the new add-on service that lets Singtel’s iPhone users enjoy 4G connectivity on the Watch Series 3. With NumberShare, the Watch shares the same number, data, and talk time as your mobile plan. Think of it as bringing your number with you wherever you go, and not only with your phone. Singtel is the first telco in Singapore and South East Asia to bring mobile connectivity to the Apple Watch Series 3 (GPS + Cellular).
When the Watch is out of its paired iPhone’s range and from known Wi-Fi networks, it switches to a 4G cellular connection. You can still make calls, send messages, and get notifications from your apps, all on the Watch itself. You can also stream 45 million songs from Apple Music (requires a subscription) and ask Siri for directions.
So you don’t have to worry about missing important calls or notifications, even without your iPhone. Leave the office for a quick drink, or pop by the neighborhood supermarket for groceries. Pay using Apple Pay on the Watch, and you can leave both your iPhone and wallet behind.
Plus, nothing feels like going for a run while staying connected. Track your run using the Watch’s built-in GPS, stream upbeat music to your AirPods, and get updates on the move, even without a phone strapped to your arm.
Singtel’s 4G mobile network has the fastest speed and widest coverage in Singapore. Singtel is also the only local LTE900 network, which gives you deeper and better indoor 4G coverage. All this means you can stay connected even if you kayak out to local islands like Pulau Ubin and St John, as well as enjoy fast 4G speeds even in underground MRT stations, tunnels and major shopping malls.
