Not the poster, but since getting a smartwatch with a cellular plan, I've found myself more often leaving my phone when out and about - especially with my kids. I'm still be able to make calls, text, listen to pods and music, pay for stuff, navigation etc. but without any of the distractions.

The only essential thing I'm missing is a camera!

Are you able to connect to Carplay?

I believe you still need your iPhone for that to work. That might have changed recently, but I don’t think so.

Apple watches work fine over Bluetooth, though that leaves a lot to be desired if you’re accustomed to CarPlay.
