Hi guys, which version should i be getting? Considering between the cellular version vs the regular one
My primary usage will be for:
1) Octopus(touchngo equivalent in HK) for MTR daily
2) Spotify with airpods? possible? or must I use Apple Music? Planning to leave phone at home and go jogging with airpods
3) Apple Pay
4) Receiving calls with airpods? Need cellular for this?

Thanks. I've been so outdated with technology please enlighten me haha

Thanks for the reply!
Also, is the SS sapphire glass worth it over the regular aluminum Ion glass? I assume ill be using it for around 7 years before they stop updating it

Out of curiosity, I actually wrote to KKM to ask. The Corporate Communications department replied that the relevant department will reply back soon

While you're at it, do ask for TouchNGo usage as well. It's a game changer in HK. Nowadays i make most payments with it + transportation like MTR/buses with a tap of the watch. Plus, with Apple Pay and cellular, I rarely even use my wallet/phone much, maybe except for buying food at certain old school brick and mortar stores. I could literally leave my phone and wallet in my bag all day at work. I've been holding back on purchasing since AW1 because I thought it wasn't really useful until the Octopus(touchngo equivalent) and Apple Pay features came along. I couldn't care less about the ECG but it's nice to have the fall detection feature. Jogging with just the watch and airpods is something Steve Jobs probably didn't even envision couple years back.

Haha I don’t think KKM handles Touchngo or Apple Pay. I think there is a petition to request Apple to introduce Apple Pay to Malaysia so until that happens, Touchngo on Apple Pay might need to wait

Ah what i meant was emailing the gov in that context biggrin.gif
