DO I have to use a smartphone to use this GPS?? null

You do not need a cellphone to operate the unit as a GPS. However, if I were not planning to use the "connectivity" features of this unit, I would not buy it.

This model includes Garmin Smartphone Link Traffic. For traffic alerts, relevant rerouting directions and up-to-date weather forecasts, download the Smartphone Link app, which connects your Garmin DriveSmart with your compatible smartphone. If you don’t have a Smartphone, the Garmin DriveSmart™ 61 LMT-S is compatible with both the GTM™ 60 HD Digital Traffic Receiver (010-01031-00) or the GTM™ 36 Traffic Receiver (010-01009-02).
