Operator offers

Let's consider the offers of the main mobile communication providers for security systems.

Offer from Megafon

The tariff from Megafon is called “Smart Home”. The company is positioned as specially designed for trackers, children's watches with GPS and other modern devices:

Subscriber – 0 rub.
Calls in the region - per minute, 5 rubles. in a minute
Calls outside the region – 5 rubles. per minute to Megafon and 15 rubles. per minute to other numbers
Internet – package per month. 50 MB
Traffic above the package – 3 rubles. 1 MB
SMS – from 2 to 3.55 rubles depending on the region and number. In your region and to Megafon in Russia - 2 rubles. per message, to any numbers within Russia – 3.55 rubles.
MMS – 7 rubles

You can switch to the Megafon tariff for smart watches for free, that is, there is no charge even in the form of an initial payment. But if the tariff plan changes more often than once a month, then the connection cost will be 150 rubles.

Offers from MTS

MTS offers several excellent Internet plans. Of the three available:

Tablet
Laptop
Smart device

It’s worth choosing “Smart Device” - this is the best tariff from MTS for children’s watches with GPS. The first thing you should pay attention to is the size of the subscription fee. In the first two, it is charged monthly, and in the last - for a year.

The MTS tariff for smartwatches offers the following conditions:

Subscription fee – 790 rub. per year when switching through a mobile device, and 800 rubles when buying in an online store. In terms of months, the subscription will be about 66 rubles per month.
Calls in the region - package 30 minutes per month. - for free
Calls above the package - in the region on MTS and throughout Russia on MTS - 2 rubles per minute, in the region to other numbers - 3 rubles per minute. In Russia to numbers of other companies – 5.5 rubles/min.
Internet – 200 MB per month, the cost beyond the package is not determined, but on average the traffic of Smart Baby Watch, for example, the Q50 model, does not exceed 30-50 MB per month
SMS – package of 100 messages per month, in addition to the package 2 rubles. for a message on MTS in your region and 3.5 rubles. for messages to numbers of other companies in your region;
MMS – no sending option

This MTS tariff has a small pitfall: the indicated price is valid only for the first year of use. The entire amount will be immediately debited from your personal account at the time of switching to the tariff plan. Starting from the 13th month, it is proposed to pay for communication services based on the calculation of 90 rubles. per month, that is, in annual terms, the price is from 800 rubles. per year increases to 1080 rubles. in year. Payment will be made monthly. The cost of switching from another operator while maintaining your number will increase by 100 rubles.

Offer from Tele2

Tele2 does not have a special offer for children's watches. Of the entire proposed line, the “Internet for Devices” tariff plan is most suitable, but in this case only the subscription fee will be from 300 rubles per month. The tariff for children's GPS watches is not the most humane.

Most children's smartwatches with a GPS tracker experience malfunctions when trying to use a SIM card from this company. Owners note both the inability to access the Internet and use communication services on the device, and more serious problems - critical changes in the device settings. When choosing a tariff plan for children's watches with a tracker function, we recommend paying attention to the offers of any telecom operators except Tele2.

What is included in the Smart Things tariff from Beeline?

In 2021, it includes the following services:

Mobile traffic – 500 MB without speed limit throughout Russia, in addition to some regions, namely Chukotka Autonomous Okrug, Crimea and Sevastopol;
30 free minutes to any numbers on your home network;
100 free SMS to local numbers;
Unlimited incoming calls for 0 rubles per month .

This is what is included in this tariff

When traveling around Russia and abroad

The terms of the “For Smart Things” tariff provide for half an hour of outgoing calls to any numbers within your home region. After exceeding the limit for minutes and when calling fixed and long-distance numbers, tariffs are charged by minute.

Since the tariff is not designed for active use of calls, its per-minute rate is higher than in all other Beeline tariffs (5 rubles per minute of conversation). Similarly, after the SMS package is exhausted, a fixed fee is charged for each message (SMS - 5 rubles, MMS - 10.65 rubles). Incoming calls and SMS are always free. You cannot connect additional SMS and minutes after exceeding the limits.

To check the balance and balances for available packages, you should call *102#, after which an SMS with the requested information will be sent to your smart gadget.

The region where the subscriber is currently located is automatically considered home, so when moving within the Russian Federation, the tariff conditions do not change. This makes the tariff convenient for travelers and simply mobile people, depriving them of the obligation to overpay.

A separate situation with Crimea: Beeline operator services are not provided within the republic. However, the operator provides its subscribers with preferential terms for using the tariff when staying on the territory of the peninsula.

What happens at the end of the service package?

If all Internet traffic has been used, then an automatic connection occurs. As a result, the operator will charge 52 rubles 100 MB . You can disable this option by simply calling 067 471 778 0 or dialing the combination *115*230# . After disconnecting, the Internet will be provided at a speed of 64 Kbps .
If minutes are spent, then outgoing calls will cost 5 rubles. minute _
The same situation occurs with SMS. For each message over the limit you will need to pay 5 rubles .

Reviews

Alina, Moscow : “I liked the Beeline tariff for smart things. Very convenient to use on a watch. In addition, there is a small subscription fee. Perhaps this is what we need.

Igor, Krasnodar : “Thanks to Beeline for such a tariff. It turned out to be just perfect. The subscription fee is small. The package of services is enough for a month. I will continue to use it."

Egor, Ufa : “The tariff is quite interesting. But I didn’t like the fact that I had to buy a new SIM card. It’s a pity that we can’t switch to it yet, like in other TPs.”

How to connect or connect

You can activate the tariff only by purchasing a SIM card at any Beeline branch or through third-party communication offices with a down payment of 100 rubles; courier delivery of SIM cards is also provided. You can place an order through the call center by calling 8-800-700-8000 or through Beeline virtual services.

Temporary deactivation for 3 months or permanent disabling of the tariff is allowed. To refuse the offer, the user can contact the sales office at their place of residence or disconnect remotely through the technical support service short number - 0611.

Temporary blocking will not require a monthly payment.

It is not necessary to deactivate the SIM card if a person wants to continue cooperation with Beeline. The client has the right to choose whether tariffs such as “Bi+”, “Per-second billing” or “First gigs” are adapted for “Smart devices”.

Let's do without a smartphone

The standard mode of operation of modern smartwatches (except for children’s watches – this is a separate “song”) is in tandem with a smartphone. But there are gadgets that provide users with maximum independence. And the best of these, according to many, is the LG Watch Sport. With this device on your hand, you certainly won't have to worry about missed calls and messages.

The name LG Watch Sport makes it clear that the smartwatch is equipped with everything necessary for sports and fitness; we won’t even dwell on this in detail. In addition, the stainless steel case hides:

GPS;
mobile communication with LTE support (SIM slot) included;
NFC for wireless payment.

3 buttons make operation easier, one of which is also a wheel for scrolling lists and zooming. The touch screen is protected by Gorilla Glass 2.0, which, together with the housing, provides IP68 water resistance.

Unfortunately, the watch is not without its drawbacks, the main one being a weak battery. With even slightly active use of the gadget, it is physically impossible to last more than one day (not even a day!) without recharging. A typical city dweller doesn’t need this, but lovers of outdoor adventures are better off looking for another smartwatch.

Smart watch Android – Wear OS

Devices that can be classified as smartwatches appeared, perhaps, even earlier than smartphones, but their mass production occurred at the beginning of the second decade of this century. It was then that smartwatches “learned” to synchronize with smartphones, which made them especially popular. And almost immediately the question arose of creating a unified operating system designed specifically for wearable gadgets and facilitating their synchronization.

The information mega-giant Google got down to business, announcing the creation of a new OS in 2014. Samsung, Motorola, Asus, HTC and LG immediately joined the project. This concentration of forces could not help but have an impact, and literally a couple of months later the first prototypes of smartwatches for the new operating system were released - Samsung Gear Live and LG G Watch.

This is interesting! It seems like a given now, but at the time it was a breakthrough that Android Wear was compatible with watches with both a rectangular and a round display.

In 2015, the developers announced the release of a special Android Wear application for the iOS operating system. Using this application, it is possible to synchronize Android smartwatches with iPhone smartphones.

In March 2021, the operating system received its current name - Wear OS.
