Do you have a cellular or non-cellular Apple Watch? Please help me decide!

I’m planning to spend some John Lewis vouchers on an Apple Watch SE and am dithering over whether to get it with or without cellular capability. Which do you have? Do you think you made the right choice? Please help me!

Reasons I’m considering cellular:

I like to go running although I’ve been neglecting it recently and this would mean I could leave my phone at home and still play music, audiobooks etc.

It could be useful if I lose my phone or leave it somewhere although I’ve reached my 40s without this ever happening.

If I want to change to cellular I’ll have to buy a whole new watch.

Reasons I might not bother:

I don’t want to get a new data contract right now as I’m planning to change my mobile phone soon, but not yet. (My phone is four years old and is working fine-ish, but it’s definitely time for a new one.)

I went into John Lewis to look at different models and they told me most people don’t bother with the cellular version.

Seems like the cellular version runs out of battery quicker also?

My phone is with me most of the time and I could presumably download an audiobook or playlist to listen offline before going running?

Advice hugely appreciated thank you!!!

(Edited to add: the price difference is £70)
