From smartphones and smartwatches to fitness trackers and other wearable technology, Canadians rely on more devices than ever to stay connected, informed and productive. As these devices continue to evolve, so do wireless networks.
Bell is expanding the benefits of 5G connectivity to compatible smartwatches on its mobile network. Designed to support the unique needs of smartwatches, this next generation of connectivity delivers reliable performance while laying the foundation for future smartwatch innovation, so customers can stay connected even when they’re away from their phone.
A New Chapter for Connected Devices
While smartphones are built to support data-intensive activities such as streaming, gaming and content creation, smartwatches are designed with different connectivity needs in mind. They require reliable, responsive connections in a compact, lightweight form factor that can keep up with everyday life.
Bell’s network innovation helps deliver the benefits of 5G to compatible smartwatches, enabling dependable connectivity for features such as messaging, calling, navigation and fitness tracking.
5G is currently available on select Apple Watch models, with support for additional wearable devices expected in the future.

Plus, check out Bell Ultra phone plans that include a smartwatch plan, making it easier to stay connected across multiple devices.
Built on an Award-Winning Network
Bell was recently recognized as Canada’s Fastest 5G+ Network by Rohde & Schwarz SwissQual AG, an independent network testing organization. Bell ranked first in both the Fastest 5G+ Network Data Speed Performance Score and Fastest 5G Network Data Speed Score categories following extensive testing conducted across Canada.
While network awards demonstrate technical leadership, customers experience those benefits through everyday activities on their smartphones: such as streaming content, sharing photos and videos, joining video calls and using cloud-based applications while on the move.
Bell continues to build on this foundation through ongoing network innovation. Following the deployment of Bell 5G+, the introduction of 5G+ Advanced capabilities and now 5G for smartwatches, Bell is extending the reach of next-generation connectivity to an increasingly diverse range of devices.
Together, these investments help ensure that the latest generation of smartphones, wearables and connected devices can take advantage of advances in network technology both today and in the future.
Fastest 5G+ Network based on 5G/5G+ Network Performance Score, calculated by Rohde & Schwarz from data collected in Canada comparing data-only performance of other national wireless networks in 2026. 5G+ results are defined as connectivity while actively using 3500 MHz / 3800 MHz spectrum.
