- Two new leaks affirm that future Garmin watches will get LTE connectivity
- This feature allows you to add smart watches to a data plan, which allows you to make calls and transmit without phone
- It is a feature included in Apple and Samsung watches, usually in more expensive models.
Two new leaks claim that we could soon make calls, transmit music and answer texts of some of the best Garmin watches that have not yet been announced, even without an attached phone.
Yes, LTE connectivity is reaching Garmin Watches, according to separate reports from the rumors of Garmin and The5krunner. Garmin Rumors associated with a site called Appsensa, which deepens the code to discover development characteristics. According to reports, Garmin is entering “everything in cell connectivity, according to the site.
The features listed include emergency satellite messages, bidirectional messaging, location of Livetrack sharing without telephone and voice calls with contacts.
Garmin Messenger, the observation surveillance messaging service, is also expanding. Maybe Garmin Messenger will now be the Garmin’s main courier client, capable of sending text messages using his data plan and reaching phones, as well as other Garmin watches?
The 5krunner also informs these statements, stating that the obvious starting point is a rumored Fenix 8 Pro, in which the “pro” represents the inclusion of LTE connectivity. The best Apple watches and the best Samsung watches often come in cheaper and more expensive variations with LTE capacity, so it would make sense that Garmin follows this pattern.
A big step forward
Garminins has long been considered separate entities for smart watches, since they are more as adventure partners or training tools than daily communications devices. However, certain ranges such as the Garmin Venu series already blur the lines a bit.
Making the clocks capable of communications without phones would mean a great change in the strategy, and allowed more intelligent watches models, such as the Garmin Venu X1 to seriously compete with tastes and Apple Watch Ultra 2 and Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra.
If it is true, I am intrigued to see which future models get this option LTE rumored. Garmin Venu 4 seems obvious. A commentator at our Rumor Center for Garmin Venu 4 agreed, declaing: “If Garmin Venu 4 once came with LTE and a text message response that would definitely be a Gamechanger. Many current iphone users would jump in Venu 4, it would be a dream clock.”
Maybe we will see Forerunner professionals with LTE options in the future too, since Livetrack without a telephone seems like a great security tool for triathletes and trails of trails who perform solo training.
