Ideal for athletes
The 4G support of the Apple Watch is a feature that users have been asking for for years. For example, the addition is ideal for athletes, such as runners or cyclists. They can now leave the phone at home and still remain reachable and stream music.
Multisim for the Apple Watch is new in the Netherlands, but abroad 4G in combination with the Apple Watch has been possible for some time. In Belgium, this has been possible since the end of 2020, via Telenet. In the Netherlands, T-Mobile is the first to offer an Apple Watch with 4G, but more providers will follow. For example, KPN has already promised to offer an Apple Watch with cellular.
