Is there a monthly charge for the Samsung Gear S2 watch?

[Roze517]

I am thinking of getting the S2 watch and would like it to work without my phone being near by.

Do you know how much the monthly fee is to add this watch to my service?

Do I have to purchase a special 4G watch (s2) to make it work? I know the Ipads have a special one that you need to pay extra for to get the LTE service, which cost 10.00 month extra.

Roze517,

Gear S2 is a great device! You can definitely connect the Gear S2 to our network or also to WiFi and bluetooth connections. It connects in 3G, and 4G connections are not possible with it, as it does not have a removable SIM card bay in it. To have it independently connected to our national network, the monthly cost is $5.00. You may also be able to buy one directly from Samsung that is only for WiFi & Bluetooth.
