Starhub say they looking to offer cellular Apple Watch. Anybody got any rough idea when is it coming out and why is it taking so long to be released?

Have been waiting for almost 2 months

When I purchased my SS LTE 2 days back at Tampines Nubox, the staff there told me he's also awaiting (M1) so holding back the purchase.

Now that Singtel's first to offer this, I doubt Starhub or M1 will take a long time....should be soon.

When I buy oso same.. so I direct them to the website and show them the model number..

Well to be exact, Apple Watch cannot roam. It’s tied to carrier settings. So if the esim profile is set up with singtel carrier settings, it won’t work even if you have data roaming..

It should works as Japan and Singapore are having the same model.

One brother here brought in Japan and already using the LTE function in singapore

So would this bought from Japan work with alll carrier in SG

I dont know what is the exchange rate for CC yet. But i got tax rebate and 5% off. Applecare also cheaper in japan.

I'm also awaiting good news from M1 and Starhub.

Checked my usage.....usage 19mins and standby 5hrs 20mins, BT on, mobile data and wifi off, dropped to 96%.

Dunno if my set got problem.

It depends on exchange rate.. plus usually cc will charge 2% off exchange rate.. eg. Conversion Rate is 80.xx .. use cc is actually 78%.. so u calculate and see whether u save or not.. the rate now is on declining trend

Days ago (26Feb) I bought Porter items from Amazon JP.

Local money exchange rate was around 12.35 but I was charged at a rate of 12.754 (78.405) including those charges.

These few days rate around 12.4x to 12.5x at money changer and 12.47 at XE.com.
"Might" got saving but not significant le......

Those buying in Japan can check again the rate before flying out of SG and compare but those wanna buy when returning to SG, I'm not sure will there be a possibility of the selected model u wanna get OOS.

Sometimes beside the exchange rate
It’s the cc mileage or cash back when buy from overrsess more points too

And Some shop like bic cAmera or yodobashi offer the tax rebate plus visa another 5% off too
