Straight Talk and Apple Watch

I purchased an iPhone 6 Plus from Walmart and I have straight talk as my phone service provider so my question is can I use the 3 series Apple Watch plus cellular?

iPhone 6s Plus, iOS 13

No on 2 counts


A) Straight Talk does not support the Apple Watch

iPhone Cellular Carriers that support the Apple Watch, which models, the radio frequencies each model uses, and the country where they offer service:

B) The current shipping Apple Watch Series 3 and 5 models require an iPhone 6s, SE, 7 or newer running iOS 13.  It will Not pair with the iPhone 6, 6 Plus or older.


NOTE: The Apple Watch as GPS only can do Everything the cellular model can do as long as your iPhone is nearby, where nearby is somewhere in the same 3-4 bedroom home (assuming typical wood frame construction). And the GPS only model does not care about your iPhone cellular carrier.
