The Sharp FX STX-2 does not require a data plan. I am currently using it with my AT&T; service & I do not have a data plan.

This is not considered a Smart Phone, as it does not run a major operating system, like Apple, Android, or Windows. It does have a lot of nice features though.I use it on Verizon, and to the best of my knowledge, there is no Data Plan. Good luck on your quest.

data plan is only required if you phone with subsidy. The phone will connect to wifi without a data plan

All I can tell you is it is listed as a "verizon" wireless phone. To me that says it is configured for the verizon network. Whether it works without a data plan, I have no idea. I bought mine to replace a RAZR I'd had since 2008.

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.

I believe it does require a data plan. I do know you can only activate the phone on a verizon contract so havibg to commit a data plan isnt that hard to believe.

It is not considered a smart phone - no data plan required. It is only good for texting and calling. The web browser is terrible and slow.

If your using your wifi at home to be able to use the device, NOT USING IT AS A HOTSPOT, then no data plan should be needed. If your going to turn the mobile hot spot on the device on then yes you do need a data plan

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.

Hi, Yes, you do Not need a data plan to use this phone. I had a AT&T; flip phone with no data plan. I just took the chip and plugged it into this phone and it works. It has wi-fi but the software is old.

my understanding is you need to set up a palm profile first. and that requires passing some data bit does not require a "data plan" though I did not buy nor do I this phone.

It comes without a data plan and I purchased it to replace my phone that broke, but for which my plan still hadn't run its course until I could get an upgrade. It came with directions to fire it up on my pre-existing plan that I was replacing my broken phone from.

Whether or not a phone requires a data plan is up to your Carrier. We recommend contacting your Carrier and making sure with them if they require for the phone to have a data plan.
