No, you do not need a data plan to use the Internet you can use any wifi available. If you are wanting Internet all the time, you might want to look into getting a hotspot which will require a data plan. I hope this information helps!!

No you do not.Your equipment will work with any Wifi. You will only need a SIM card if you want to purchase data from a carrier .

No data plan required. I have had two LG 8350 phones. Both had phone jacks that broke and could only be used with a headset.

No you do not need a data plan to use this phone. I have AT&T; text & talk only and was able to add it to my plan. It is capable of data if you were to upgrade your plan to data but again not required.

You don't have to sign up for (in this case purchase) a data plan with this phone and it will still work on wifi. But you won't have any access to data when you aren't in wifi range.

No it doesn't have to have internet connection although it is capable. My son's phone does not have a data plan but he is very careful to never use any data because it is very expensive without a plan. I also had to tell Verizon that we were not using a data plan with this phone.

Siffert the question asked was if the phone would work with wi-fi without a data plan, not whether it would work where there is no wi-fi. The person wanted to use it at home on their wi-fi network without a data plan which from what AT&T; customer service says the answer is yes you can access your wi-fi without a data plan. You only need a data plan to access internet when not around a wi-fi connection.

It works fine with wifi, as do almost all tablets. The reason to get a data plan is to access the internet when not within range of your wifi.

You won't need a data plan for this. You will need to connect to wifi to use apps, get on the Internet, or purchase things from the app store or iTunes. But just to play music/take pictures you won't need a data plan.

You can use a sim card. So if your carrier's is a sim card carrier you can use to get Internet.

Answer to the question "Can this be used without a data plan": Yes. I used it for two years with no data plans. It comes with a wifi to allow you connecting to the internet when wifi is available.

Nope! They use available wifi, so you do not need a data plan with this phone.

No, it does not require a data plan. It's an unlocked at&t phone, but I was able to get the tmobile month to month plan.

Yes, it's a smart phone. It needs a data plan in case you want to use the internet features outside of a wi-fi network. If not, you can use it with wi-fi only.

No. You will have to purchase a Sim card and data plan from your cell phone provider. This will be in addition to your cell phone plan even if you have unlimited data.

Yes you can. Wifi is a connection to your home network, many phones have wireless capability these days. It will keep you from using your data.

If you mean, can this phone still make calls and texts without a data plan, then the answer is yes. If you mean, can this phone access internet if the wifi is turned off, then the answer is only if you have a data plan.
