I assume the new AW S11 ships with watchOS 26. Does this mean that I must upgrade my iPhone to iOS 26 to use it?

I have deliberately refrained from upgrading to iOS 26 because I find Liquid Glass truly hideous. I have iPadOS 26 on my iPad and I'm not a fan at all.

So, if anyone knows whether I can use the S11 with iOS 18, please let me know as it would help me from buying it and then returning it.
 
yes unfortunately iphone requires IOS 26 to work/paired with a S11 . long shot possibly after purchase you may be able to send watch to a apple service center to request a downgrade to previous OS but i haven’t seen any valid confirmation this is possible or an option just a thought.
