You do not need to have a cellular plan for Watch with cellular radio, and all will work save for the cellular capabilities when out of range of the paired iPhone.


This works very much like an iPad with cellular radio. That too does not need a cellular plan, save for cases where you want or need to use cellular. If you want to use the iPad with cellular radio, you'll need a cellular plan. Otherwise, not.
