Can I buy an iPhone in a chinese Apple Store and use it in Canada with a canadian SIM card ?

I want to know if I can buy an Iphone in another country like China and use it in different countries. If I buy it from an Apple Store without any contract and without a SIM card, what do I have to check to use it without having problems ? When I will be in Canada, can I simply put my canadian SIM card in my iPhone from China or I've to unlock something ? Thank you ! 

I don't believe Apple sells officially unlocked iPhones in China, thus no. Even if they did, why would you want to purchase in China to begin with when you can purchase an officially unlocked iPhone in Canada?

    Thank you for taking the time to answer!

    If it is sold as officially unlocked from an official reseller, then yes.

  • Can I buy a cellular iPad mini retina display in the US and use it in Canada with a Canadian provider

    I want to buy an ipad mini retina with wifi+Cellular because it is cheaper in the us than in canada.  Will i be able to use it in canada with a canadian provider(bell, rogers or telus)?

    So you really think they are that much cheaper? Look here:
    http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/shop_iphone/family/iphone/iphone4s
    And that's without tax. Think again, while you can purchase such a phone here, you can only purchase directly from Apple & you will have NO WARRANTY OR SUPPORT for this phone where you live. Oh, and those prices do not include US state/local sales tax or any duties you might have to pay. Still sound like a good deal?
    When using that link, first select the color, then click on "Unlocked & Contract Free", to see prices.

  • Can I buy an iPhone 5 from Verizon, unlock it, and use it with AT

    I have an android phone on AT&T currently, and I am looking to switch to an iPhone 5. My wife has a non-smartphone, and she does not want to switch to another phone. However, if we move to Verizon, she will HAVE to switch to another phone. So my question is this: Can I get a CDMA iPhone 5, and use it on AT&T? I don't need LTE, 3G is fine, and I don't need a hotspot. Price is not an issue, but I want it fast, and I don't want to have to do any hacking/jail breaking/illegal stuff. Would I just buy an iPhone 5 CDMA without a plan from an apple store and then sign it up for a plan on AT&T?

    Just use your existing upgrade (if you are eligible) and get the device through AT&T.
    Even if your wife's line is eligible for an upgrade, you can use that without affecting her service.
    Or as suggested, buy the unlocked version.
    The Verizon phone will be locked to Verizon.. there would be no reason to buy it at full retail which would require a Verizon contract with the intent of using it on AT&T.

  • Can I use UK iPhone in Canada with a Canadian Sim Card

    I have an iPhone 4 that was previously on an O2 contract in the UK. The contract is coming up to expiry and I have contacted O2 and they are now currently in the process of unlocking it. The phone was originally purchased through O2, not throught the Carphone Warehouse or other 3rd party.
    I am moving to Canada in the near future and was wondering if the phone will work with a Candian Sim Card from a Canadian Network provider (e.g. Rodgers)?

    Once it is unlocked, it will work on any GSM carrier in the world.  If it's a supported carrier, no changes will need to be made.
    If it's an unsupported carrier, then it will be up to that carrier to provide the necessary informationn to get the device working (APN's and such information).

  • Can I buy my new Iphone6 at an Apple store and still take advantage of the $200 Verizon tradein an older Apple promotion? Or do I have to buy the new phone through Verizon?

    I can't find any Verizon stores with stock of the model ipone 6 that I want so I am hoping I can take advantage of this promotion at an Apple store.

        tahoegrammy,
    We understand the excitment with purchasing this device. In order to qualify for this promotion you would need to purchase the device via our corporate store locations, online or Customer Service.

  • Buying a handset and use it in Europe with a different sim card

    Hi, would it work if I buy a blackberry handset in the US and ship it to a friend in Belgium who will install a local sim card?

    yes if you get an AT&T device that is unlocked it should work fine.
    Tmobile ones will not get 3g as their bands are different.

    Can I hook my iphone 5 to a touchscreen monitor and use the touchscreen feature of the monitor. Would I have to use the lighting to hdmi?

    The connection of the phone to the monitor would allow you to see, but does not have the ability to translate the touch on the monitor to the phone through that cable.

    An iPhone 4 CDMA is CDMA only. It doesn't have any GSM circuitry and doesn't have a SIM slot. You can only use it on the network it was originally sold for.

    In my case, i just go to Settings->Itunes & App Store and Sign Out and Sign In again. Then enable all Automatic Downloads (Music, Apps, Books, Updates).
    PS: Enable all automatic downloads may not be necessary.
    Good luck.
