Nope, it doesn't! You can use internet on it, but not required. Just a basic phone :)

I am sorry this is an internet phone and can only be plugged into the internet. you will also need to get a provider to provide the service for you.

It does have internet you can even browse while talking on the phone. I have been impressed by this phone even though its been out for two years. There are some good reviews on YouTube that you might also like to check out.

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.

The processor in the phone is very slow, it has very little memory available - so loading webpages takes FOREVER. Using the internet on this phone is frustrating and would make it hard to get addicted to the internet capabilities. So I guess the long answer to your question is yes.

Yes, it's a touchscreen phone. You'll need mobile internet to activate the phone without hacking the phone. Once activated, internet is not required to use the device.

You mean data traffic / internet connection? well, depends on your needs... it does NOT require, but it is a smartphone and not providing network kills a good portion of what smartphones offers best. Anyway not required.

This phone works on Internet based phone service. It takes some getting used to but all in all it is a good phone.

We apologize for the delay in responding. No this phone definitely does not require a data plan. I have it myself so I know for sure. Thank you for your interest.Clayton Recellulartoo

You don't need a data plan. I wouldn't recommend this phone if you wanted to use the internet anyways; the access is not good for web surfing. Great for a basic text and talk plan though.

I don't know for sure, but I doubt it. The phone needs internet and can be Wi-Fi connected but needs adequate bandwidth to operate the clear caption. We have not had any problems with the phone, it works very well.

No. It does not need internet to work, but if you phone is dead (no battery power) it cannot respond when you press the button on the key-fob that would normally make your phone signal (beep, bong, ring, ding or otherwise sound according to your choice).

Regardless of what phone you get if you want to use any internet you will need a 3g/4g plan unless you are around a wifi-hotspot. If your asking if its required to have a internet plan then no. Some carriers tend to say it is a requirement if you own a smartphone but that is not true. The phone should not allow you to connect online on their network without a internet plan don't let them fool you its a sales tactic.

No, you need a service provider for it to have and use wifi. I hsve tried on various other phones with same results.

It needs to be connected only to a telephone line. No connection to the Internet required.
