iPad with Cellular necessary?

Would I regret getting an iPad without cellular?
I am dreading the $20/month more than the $1300 for the device.
Anyone have a strong opinion either way want to share? TIA

I am unsure what the price difference is now between wifi only and cellular/wifi. If the difference is not significant, then you may want to purchase the device with both then you always have the option of adding it to a plan or not. I have always had wifi only with no issues and could tether to my iPhone if needed but rarely have.

It's a nice to have, but I just hotspot my phone

Will you use the iPad more than 100ft from your iPhone and need internet access regularly?
If no, no
If yes, if this nets you < $240 enjoyment per year, still no.
If yes but it nets you more than $240/y of enjoyment, it pays for itself.

My ipad and iphone share the same unlimited data plan. I've had that system for years with 10GB/month instead of unlimited. When I got a new ipad a couple years ago something happened and the cell service wouldn't work on the ipad. The ATT store said only Apple could fix it. Since I'm usually around wifi I would just use the hotspot for my ipad if necessary.
Last week I upgraded my iphone for the first time in a few years (11 to 15). This time the guy at the ATT store said he could fix it and he did. They don't offer the same plan, but for $5 more per month than I was paying I now have a new phone and unlimited data. I also got an iwatch for $0.99 a month included. Haven't fooled with that but if it uses data it's part of that plan, too.
