iPhone 15 and surfing the internet

I have just started using an IPhone 15 and was an Android user prior to switching to an iPhone. While using the Android I was able to surf the internet without accessing WiFi. The IPhone doesn’t allow me to surf the internet without accessing WiFi. Any suggestions?

iPhone 15, iOS 17

Did you make sure, that mobile data is enabled in the settings?

The iPhone will try to use Wi-Fi to connect with a known network first. If there is no known Wi-Fi nearby, and cellular data is turned on, it will connect to the mobile network of your provider.
