Yes I don’t set up cellular on my series 6 gold stainless steel. Ain’t gonna pay extra for that and I keep my iPhone with me all the time.

Only if I can’t have my iPhone with me and can still wear my watch then I would get it

I used to have a LTE enabled Se 1st gen without a plan, and at that point the LTE model was a very similar price to the GPS only

I would think millions of AW users do not have it on a cellular plan. All of my AW have been cellular but have never put it on a plan. I carry my phone all the time so no need. I have many friends who had their watch on a plan but no longer do.

Also to add cellular to an Apple Watch on my carrier, they’d also have to run thru some eligibility requirements.

I do have to get a cellular model anyway as well stainless steel and titanium models have it as a standard. But cellular isn’t mandatory for Apple Watch setup except for pairing as Apple Watch for Kids/Family sharing which also has the option to use a different carrier independent from the iPhone

Yep, the cellular feature is included in many AW models no matter is you want or not.

Yes, I bought my cellular stainless steel series 9 mostly for the sapphire screen, but also because it can call emergency services, even without a plan, should it ever be needed.

I don't have cellular activated on my U2.. I won't pay $7.50-15 for the service considering it uses the same number my phone uses. It should be included in my Verizon cellular plan

Ultra 3. Have never activated cellular. No point for me as I always have my phone.

I had a series 5 cellular w/o a plan for 3 yrs or so. But visible has apple watch date plan included in the 35/month plan. So its a no brainer. I rarely use cellular though.

I had cellular on my 6 for about three months, realized I was never using it and cancelled.

I mainly got it for running as I don't like to carry my phone, but I typically trail run and the parks/national forest I go to doesn't have cell service at all, so.... ah well.
