Whats the best way to call someone with an Apple Watch: via cellular or FaceTime Audio?

Curious to know what’s everyone’s preferred method for calling on an Apple Watch, assuming both parties have Apple devices.

I've always just done cellular. While I know one can do FaceTime Audio, it's just been slightly easier for me to call them normally. I only do this when I have AirPods.

I use FaceTime audio when possible. The audio quality is so much better. I normally do it through Siri too. “[tilt watch up] FaceTime audio my mom”

I didn’t realize you could do FaceTime audio from the watch, but agree that the audio is like night and day when making a FaceTime voice call from my phone.

This question made me realize, I have never used the watch to make calls. However I have used it for incoming calls, it’s useful to see a call on my wrist and answer it (usually short convo) and not have to go look for where my phone is.

Usually use normal calls with AW. Will try FaceTime soon. Is there a way to answer an incoming call using Siri or setting a simple gesture without touching the watch? And to end a call? It can be useful in some situation.
