Apple Watch Series 5

I am thinking of purchasing the new series 5 Nike watch, however I have cricket wireless. I see AT&T supports the watch and cricket is owned by AT&T so just trying to figure out if I will be able to use the cellular part if I were to buy it?

Apple Watch 4 with Cellular does it work if you don't yet have contract? Hi - I want to purchase an Apple Watch 4 - I am thinking of getting the cellular version, but I will only enable the cellular later on when I switch providers at the end of my contract. I just want to make sure the watch will work fine in the meantime just as a wifi version, even if I don't yet have a cellular contract for it?

I don't think it will work even Cricket is owned by AT&T.

Best you ask Cricket directly before you buy.

FYI, you also need at least an iPhone 6s or later with iOS 13.
