You can not buy an iPhone from Apple online in the US unless you have a U.S. issued credit card and a US shipping/billing address.
If you want to physically come to the US, you can buy one at any Apple Store.
The warranty will not be valid outside of the US.  It will not work with LTE networks outside of the US. If you need out of warranty service, you will not be able to get it outside of the US.  You will not be able to ship the phone to Apple in the US for service. You will have to physically carry it back to the US, or you will have to send it to someone you know in the US to take it in for service.

    I´m from germany and want to buy a IPhone 4s in the USA. Is it the same software like here in germany and can i use it here, like a german one?

    Assuming you want to use a German sim you must buy an unlocked iPhone4S from an Apple Retail store

  • Can I buy an iPhone 6 in the usa to use in the uk with a uk service provider

    Can I buy an iPhone 6 64gb in the usa to use in the uk with a uk sim and uk service provider

    You need to be aware that it may or may not work in the UK.
    If the phone does work in the UK, then you will not get any 4G coverage because the phones are not compatible.
    Also be aware that you have no warranty cover for your phone in the UK - iPhone warranty is NOT international so you have to take it back to the US.
    If you want an iPhone and you want to use it in the UK, then buy the phone in the UK and NOT the US.  You will get 4G and also EU warranty on the phone.

  • If i buy iphone 5 from the usa can i take it back and use it with my UK O2 sim card and how much will a 16gb iphone 5 cost

    Hi,
    if i buy iphone 5 from the usa can i take it back and use it with my UK O2 sim card and also how much will a 16gb iphone 5 cost in the usa?
    thanks

    hi there,
    you could buy it somewhere in Europe. I know Apple sells them unlocked here in Germany and if I am not mistaken also (among others) in France and Italy.
    Yet, as Peter wrote, the warranty can become a problem. Not sure whether a one country only rule goes for the European Community as well though.
    As for the price, the 16 GB model costs 679,- € (equals roughly 550 £). Currently there is an average delivery time of 4 to 5 weeks.
    LTE connections will not work with Orange or Vodafone. Only EE is about to offer a compatible LTE network. DC-HSPA and regular HSPA+ will work fine.
    regards, Chris

  • If i buy an iPhone 5s from the United States will the iPhones warranty be honoured in New Zealand?

    If i buy an iPhone 5s from the United States will the iPhones warranty be honoured in New Zealand?

    Warranty for the iPhone is not and has never been International.
    Purchase the device in the country where it is intended to be used.
    Also, be aware that there is no gurantee that an iPhone from the US will work on LTE anywhere else in the world.

  • I have brought an iphone 4 from the usa.

    hi there i brought iphone 4 from the usa of a friend but how do i get my 02 sim card to work? thanks

    As Wjosten says it is locked to AT&T and they will not unlock it.  Even though o2 unlock iphones they can only do this with phones originating from them.  So, yes the phone is not able to be officially unlocked.

  • If I purchase an unlocked iPhone 5 from the USA, would I be able to use the phone in Australia?

    If I purchase an unlocked iPhone 5 from the USA, would I be able to use the phone in Australia?

    Yes - unlocked means unlocked, but if there is a problem that requires an exchange under warranty, the warranty would be honored in the US only. You would need to return to the US for an exchange under warranty.

  • I received a Iphone 4 from the Usa to the Uk

    bascally I received it from the Usa and when I insert my tmobile sim card it wont work and I dont have that AT&T sim card to activate my iphone any help?
    how can I skip the activation?

    Your phone is locked to AT&T and you will not be able to use it with anyother SIM. AT&T will not unlock an iPhone for any reason. Best to sell the phone and get an unlocked version if that is what you need.

  • 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 buy an iPhone 6 from France and use it in China?

    Dear Apple readers,
    In one week, I will move to Shanghai for work. I have never owned a phone before for the simple and good reason that I never needed one. Until now... Many Chinese people recommended me to buy it from France as it would be cheaper. However, I was told that I need to buy a certain model that can work in China. Can someone tell me which model I have to buy? I I go to a store and be like "Hello, I would like to buy an iPhone 6 model A1586" does it make sense or?
    Do you have any suggestion/advice?
    Best regards,
    GodBlessMali

    Dear Lawrence Finch,
    Thank you for the quick reply. I suppose I will buy the phone in China then as there is no Apple store around.
    Thanks again.
    Best regards,
    GodBlessMali

  • I want to buy unlocked iPhone 5 from the Canada Apple store,do they sell the unlocked iPhone 5 model A1429CDMA?

    Does the Canada Apple store sell the unlocked iPhone 5 model A1429CDMA?

    Canada sells unlocked iPhone 5's.  Why not check this out for yourself by going to the Apple store website and then changing the country to Canada?
    You can't purchase it from the store online though - you'll have to travel directly to Canada yourself to buy it because there is no international shipping available.
