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.

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.

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 have to have a data plan with this phone. I don't have a data plan because of the cost. You can access wifi spots though.

It is not a smartphone. However, you can add one or access the internet if you want. This phone does have a quewty keyboard. Most of the pantech line does not require a data plan to use it.

Basic phone with data capabilities. I do not use a data plan for cost reasons. This phone is the best basic phone I have ever owned. I am extremely rough on phones and it has lasted me longer than any phone before it.

No, it's not a smart phone. You have the capabilities to get on the internet, play games, etc... But I just used it for text and call uses and It's perfect.

No, it is not. Which means you are not required to get a data plan with it. However, as many other non-smart phones it can connect to internet. If you want to avoid any extra charges, you can go under settings and just disable data transfer completely.

It's not a prepaid phone, I used it when I had my two year contract with Verizon. However, I am not sure if it can be used without a data plan.

I believe it's free, although sometimes it will work through your phone, so yes if use your phone you will need a data plan.

No data plan is required and you can use regular Wifi for internet access. I'd reccommend the Fusion 2 that they have now, it's basically the same phone, but with more internal memory.

Yes, this is a smart phone of course a data package is needed to use data service. But, I don't recommend you to buy it, cause there is big issue with the usb port recharge. I bought 2 all gave me the same issues and a lot of customers complaint about ...

It does not require any data plan. You can install SIM card and start to use it right away. You can choose any GSM provider here in US as well as in Europe. This is a reason to buy an unlocked phone. Unfortunately, we've sent it back to seller. It has very good design (it's a Sony(!), so you get a very good designed phone just by default). It was brand new, in the original box, but did not work at all, unfortunately again. May be it was just a Chinese grey copy, but it's only my guess.

I would say yes. If you don't have a wi-fi connection or 3G you will need some type of data plan if you have a smart phone.
