  • If i buy a sim-free iphone 5s in America, can i use it in China with a Chinese sim card?

    i've bought a sim-free iphone 5s  in apple store in America but i am worried that i cannot use it with a Chinese sim card. Can someone help me?
    Thank you very much!

    The iPhone is sold as "unlocked and contract-free" when purchasing that option from the Apple Store, though Apple's verbiage is using "unlocked" and "SIM-free" rather interchangeably:
    The unlocked iPhone includes all the features of iPhone but without a wireless contract commitment. You can activate and use the unlocked iPhone on the supported GSM wireless network of your choice, such as AT&T or T-Mobile in the United States. The unlocked iPhone will not work with CDMA-based carriers, including Sprint and Verizon Wireless.
    If you don’t want a multiyear service contract, or if you prefer to use a local carrier when traveling abroad, the unlocked iPhone is the best choice. If you choose T-Mobile, your iPhone comes with a T-Mobile SIM card already installed. You will need to contact T-Mobile or visit an Apple Retail Store to activate your iPhone.
    Otherwise, the unlocked iPhone does not come with a micro-SIM card for iPhone 4s, or a nano-SIM card for iPhone 5c or iPhone 5s so you’ll need to get one from any supported GSM carrier worldwide. To start using your iPhone, simply insert the SIM card into the slot and turn on iPhone by pressing and holding the On/Off button for a few seconds. Then follow the onscreen instructions to set up your iPhone.
    Purchasing an unlocked iPhone means you will not qualify for the lower iPhone price associated with a contract. The unlocked iPhone 5c model is A1532 (GSM). The unlocked iPhone 5s model is A1533 (GSM).
    To help decide whether the locked or unlocked option is right for you, compare wireless service plans. Or call our iPhone Specialists at 1-800-MY-APPLE.
    Be aware that if you purchase an iPhone in the US, that will be the only place you will get support from Apple should you need it. You will not get any support for a US-sold iPhone in China.
    Regards.

  • Can I use a T-Mobile contract-free iPhone 6 in any country with any SIM Card carrier?

    I'm from Uruguay and I want to buy an iPhone 6 contract free from T-Mobile. My doubt is if I'll be able to use it in my country with a local carrier. In other words, is a factory unlocked iPhone? Which is the difference between a unlock iPhone and a Contract-Free T-Mobile iPhone?

    Hey Nicolas,
    I had the same question, so I went to the Apple chat, and I asked the same, 'cause I need an iPhone to works in South America and Europe as well.
    so what the person on the chat  answered me was that the T-mobile cellphone comes Unlocked, so you can use it anywhere.
    I Guess I can get it and now.

  • Can I use more than one SIM card in my iPhone if I buy it SIM free?

    Sim free is not enough, you can use different sim if it's unlock.

  • If I buy a Sim free iPhone in the UK will I be abel to use it on PAYG in Australia?

    If I buy a Sim free iPhone in the UK will I be abel to use it on PAYG in Australia? Or will in need jailbreaking? And what does this even mean?!
    Also, I'll still have a UK SIM (vodafone) that I'll want to check from time to time - will this work?
    thanks

    The iPhone4 and 4S use a microsim about half the size of the normal sim
    You would have to get replacements for your old sims to use a iPhone4/4S
    and no unlocked is unlocked will work anywhere with a GSM sim
    people use jailbreaking to get round not having an unlocked iPhone
    Go to an UK Apple Store
    you can reserve the night before online so you don't have a wasted journey
    http://www.apple.com/uk/retail/iphone/
    UK Apple stores only sell unlocked iPhones
    They will sell you one with a contract but you will have to go through a contract sign up process etc etc so there is no scope for error

  • Can i buy a sim free iphone 5s from a apple retail store ?

    Can i buy a sim free iphone 5s from a apple retail store in nyc or is it exclusively avaliable online ?

    You can buy it at an Apple store. But you do not want "SIM Free", which means that you can use it with any carrier, but the phone becomes locked permanently to the first carrier you use it with. You want to be clear that you want an "UNLOCKED" phone. Apple does not sell SIM Free phones, but some independent dealers (such as Carphone Warehouse in the UK) do.
    Also, note that if you plan to use it outside of the US you will not have warranty or repair service available for it; Apple will only fix phones (in or out of warranty) in the country of purchase. And it may not work on LTE (4G) networks outside of North America.

  • Can I use the same GSM sim card from my 4s with the iphone 5?

    I'm from the Bahamas and I wanted to know if I can still use my same GSM sim card in the new iphone 5, do the iphone 5 GSM sim cards have to get cut smaller like they did with the iphone 4s sim cards???

    If there is no other option, you can cut the old SIM and rub it down to make it thinner, but be prepared for it not to work and the SIM ruined..

    What is the reason for Apple to skip this function? In fact, I feel pretty uncomfortable with this decision, it hinders me from using the iPad in a useful way. What is the reason to allow tethering on an iPhone and not on an iPad?
    We are all just your fellow users. No one here is going to be able to answer those questions for you. Bottom line is, for whatever reaons, you cannot use your iPad as a mobile hotspot. If that's the reason why you bought it, you need to either return it or sell it.
    Submit your feedback to Apple here:

    Many people find that it's still a useful device even without that feature.

  • Can I use a virgin micro SIM card with an iPhone 4?

    Can I use a virgin micro SIM card with an iPhone 4?

    Everything depends on whether the iphone is unlocked or not and whether it's an ATT or Verison version.  Follow the links in the right panel, under "More Like This".
    It would help if you indicate which country you're in.

  • Can I use T-mobile's SIM card for iphone6?

    I bought a unlocked iphone6 in Japan.
    I'm planning to use it using T-mobile's nano SIM card with $30 a month plan.
    1. Can I use T-mobile's SIM card for iphone6? The website(below) implies that it is not combatible with T-mobile.
    http://prepaid-phones.t-mobile.com/sim-card
    2. Although my iphone6 is from Walmart, can I use $30 a month plan? The website(below) mentions that "This plan is only available for devices purchased from Wal-Mart or devices activated on T-Mobile.com"
    http://prepaid-phones.t-mobile.com/prepaid-plans
    If I buy and activate the nano-SIM card in the website, I can use  $30 a month plan, can't I?
    Thank you for your kind help!

    That is OK. To activate iPhone you need a SIM Card from the Carrier the iPhone is locked to. It takes just moments for iTunes to activate the iPhone, once activated you can put the SIM Card back into the 4S when you like.
