Can I buy an unlocked iPhone 4S in Canada and use it in Mexico?

Hi!
I'm currently in Canada but I'll be traveling back to Mexico in a few days, but I just wanted to know if I can use an unlocked iPhone 4S in mexico with carriers like Telcel, Iusacell and Movistar. It's urgent
Thanks

You can pay full retail now and then unlock with Verizon's permission later. It's only for international use if it's like the 4s. Only atat has unlocked phones from apple because it's gsm not CDMA. Is straight talk gsm or is it CDMA?  I am not an expert.

  • Where can I buy an unlocked iphone 3gs in Canada?

    I will go to the other countries in future for business so i wonder if I can buy an unlocked iphone which can be used by inserting SIM card directly since locked iphone can't be used in the other countries? Or can I get offical tech unlocking for my iphone so that it can work in the other countries? Thanks for reply.

    Officially unlocked iPhones are not sold in Canada. You could buy one in a country where they are sold unlocked, then use it in Canada with a Fido or Rogers SIM. The countries that sell them unlocked are listed here:
    <http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1937>
    It may not be easy to buy, though, as they may require a local address, or payment with a debit or credit card issued in their country. Also, the warrantee is valid only in the country of sale. Even if you do get an unlocked iPhone, it may be difficult to get a local SIM in some countries (such as Japan or Korea). Things are easier if you know a resident of the country who is willing to buy the phone or SIM for you.
    You can use a locked Canadian iPhone in other countries but they charge high roaming fees for voice, and exorbitant roaming fees for data. Data roaming can be disabled in "Settings" > "General" > "Network".
    Fido and Rogers have some international plans that will reduce roaming fees a bit. Check with them before you leave.

  • Can I purchase an unlocked iPhone in the US and use it in Malta?

    Hi all
    I'll be visiting NYC in the coming months and I would love to own an iPhone 4s! I am interested in buying an unlocked iPhone 4s from an authorised Apple store in NYC as the current prices in my country, Malta for an iPhone 4s is $800 with one of our service providers and its quite expensive :/.  Would I have any problems if I use my local SIM card on it in Malta? 

    The only issue you need to be aware of is warranty/support. Yours will only be valid in the US. Any issues, and you'll have to figure out how to physically return the phone, to the US, for all warranty issues...you can't mail it back.
    1 reason too buy apple product's ! its didnt get any hardware issue Normally !

  • I want to buy an unlocked iPhone 5c in America and use it in Europe. On the Apple Website it says, that you can then only use it, by using a GSM-Compatible sim. What is that?

    Hello, I want to buy an iPhone 5c. Because it's cheaper in America, i'd like to buy it there, but it says it requires a GSM-compatible sim! Please tell me what that is!
    Thanks

    Yep, officially for sale now. Apple's online store shows it ships immediately, so should be in stock at just about every Apple store.

  • Where can I buy an unlocked iPhone 5 in the US?

    Actually, two weeks later would be my friend's birthday and I would like to give him an unlocked iphone 5 (because he is in China) as a gift.
    I tried to call the apple retail store, and the assistant said that I could order unlocked iphone 5 online. But I could not find it online.
    Now, everywhere is out of stock. Where can I buy the unlocked iphone 5?

    I have yet to see Apple selling them unlocked from their site, but maybe soon.
    Also, Verizon's version of the iPhone 5 already comes unlocked, depending on what carrier type they would (CDMA/GSM) that may be your best route to go through Verizon. I havent seen the

  • Can we buy factory unlock iPhone 5?

    Can we buy factory unlock iPhone 5?

    The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
    Apple has not announced one. If it's like the 4S it will be out in 5 to 6 weeks.

    Oh those Canadians, you just have to take what they say with a grain of salt.
    The warranty on the iPhone, contract or not, is not world wide. If something happens to your iPhone I seriously doubt wherever you are in Europe that they stock Canadian unlocked iPhones. Worse, if you take it to an Apple Store in a country where the iPhone is locked then they can only replace it with a locked iPhone from their supply of replacement phones. If it is with a different cell provider than you use well, that's just too bad.
    You would either need to return to Canada for service or send it to someone there who can take it in for you.

  • Can I buy an unlocked iPhone 5 without a contract?

    Hello, I live in China. I'm visiting the US this winter, and I wanted to know if I could buy an unlocked iPhone 5 without a contract.
    Since I'll only be visiting, I won't be needing it with a contract.
    Is this possible?
    I would buy this in China, but I know for a fact that an iPhone 4s ALONE would cost about $800 US dollars.
    I'd perfer not to spend that much money on a phone when I can buy the original.
    China has the tendency to make fake products, and I definitely don't want to pay $800+ US dollars for a fake.
    So is it possible I can buy an unlocked iPhone 5 without a contract?

    But the risk is high and sometimes it's not worth it. Anyway, good luck to you.
