Can you send text and view emails
Lona, thank you for your question on the Samsung Galaxy Watch5. You can absolutely send and receive texts from the device so long as you are in range of your cellular device, if you are on the Bluetooth version of the watch. Email settings are more complicated as some emails are larger in size and contain attachments that will not come through to the watch directly it may also depend on what email service you are using as to the compatibility with the watch.
