  1. No such thing as an iPhone 9. Theres iPhone 8, then there’s iPhone X.
  2. Cellular Data and Wi-Fi are 2 different things. They are not dependent on each other. Cellular Data lets you access the internet when there is no Wi-Fi connection. When there’s a Wi-Fi connection availanle, it uses that instead of cellular data to access the internet.
