LTE-enabled Samsung Galaxy Watch now up for pre-order, shipments starting next month
Samsung Galaxy Watch 46 mm variant
Revealed alongside the Galaxy Note 9 earlier this month, the Samsung Galaxy Watch LTE is now available for pre-order. Priced at US$379.99 (42 mm in Rose Gold or Midnight Black) and US$399.99 (Silver), this smartwatch is designed for T-Mobile and will begin shipping in the first week of September.
If you were looking for a worthy smart wearable companion for the Galaxy Note 9, you will be happy to find out that the LTE-enabled Samsung Galaxy Watch is now up for pre-order. However, this smartwatch comes with a catch and some will not be able to swallow it: there is no variant for Verizon Wireless, Sprint, or AT&T, because the LTE Galaxy Watch has been designed with T-Mobile in mind.
Those interested can pre-order the 46 mm Galaxy Watch in Silver for US$399.99, but those who can live with the smaller 42 mm variant can choose between the Rose Gold model and the one that comes in Midnight Black. Both 42 mm Galaxy Watch models have the same price tag of US$379.99.
The pre-orders come with a free band, as it follows:
black Urban Traveller Leather Band for the Silver Galaxy Watch LTE
brown Essex Leather Band for the Midnight Black variant
rose Urban Dress Band for Galaxy Watch for the Rose Gold Galaxy Watch LTE
In the future, other carriers will probably offer their own Galaxy Watch LTE variants as well. For now, it is just the T-Mobile way or no way.

In my early school days, I hated writing and having to make up stories. A decade later, I started to enjoy it. Since then, I published a few offline articles and then I moved to the online space, where I contributed to major websites that are still present online as of 2021 such as Softpedia, Brothersoft, Download3000, but I also wrote for multiple blogs that have disappeared over the years. I've been riding with the Notebookcheck crew since 2013 and I am not planning to leave it anytime soon. In love with good mechanical keyboards, vinyl and tape sound, but also smartphones, streaming services, and digital art.
