Do the replacement iphone 5 come unlocked

Hi there guys i bought the iphone 5 when it was released from o2 2 months down i had camera problems and yesterday i had an appointment with the genius team in apple leeds store they straight away replaced me with a new handset. The point is o2 unlocked my iphone for free and does apples iphone 5 be unlocked or do i have to get in touch with o2 ?

Apple replaces products model-for-model.  Unless you bought unlocked, O2 needs to repeat the process for you.

  • I paid early termination fee two months ago to Verizon and am now out of the country. Am trying to unlock the phone but the local guys say they are not able to. I see from the blog here that iPhone 5 comes unlocked. Is it true?? Do I still have to unlock.

    I paid early termination fee two months ago to Verizon and am now out of the country. Am trying to unlock the phone but the local guys say they are not able to. I see from the blog here that iPhone 5 comes unlocked. Is it true?? Do I still have to unlock. How do I go about it?

    Thank you for reaching out to us, Texasman. Sad to see that
    you have left the VZW family, but it is definitely awesome to be able to
    travel! Regarding your iPhone 5, the phone is unlocked for international usage.
    Just need an active local SIM card that is compatible with your iPhone. Your local provider
    may need to configure some settings under Cellular, but it should pick up signal. Just in
    case, make sure that Settings>Cellular>Roaming>Voice & Data are
    active.

  • Does the iPhone 5 come unlocked so I can put in a different SIM card?

    I'm going to study abroad in Germany for a few months and want to make sure I can use my iPhone 5 from Verizon with a different phone company over there by just using a different SIM card. Can the iPhone 5 be used with any carrier via the SIM card?

    I never had a iPhone, but I have been researching that exact question.  It seems that Verizon iPhone 5's automatically come sim unlocked.  Which is not a full unlock where you are able to delete certain programs you were not able to delete when you first bought the phone.  A sim unlock will allow you to use other sim cards for other companies, but you will not get LTE data. According to Verizon spokeswoman Brenda Raney: "she says there's no plans to lock Apple's handset at a later point. In other words, you should be free to use a Verizon-locked iPhone 5 on any compatible GSM and HSPA+ networks for as long as you'd like, including with AT&T and Canadian carriers. Of course, this still brings the caveats of having to both buy a Verizon model, either at full price or with a contract attached, and track down a nano-SIM for the carrier of choice. It could nonetheless settle the question of what carrier to pick if you regularly need a passport when you travel.  I believe this article will tell you all you need to know.  if not, you can go to verizon if the phone is locked, and have it sim-unlocked, as long as you have a account with them in good standing.

    If you don't find your answer with this link, just type "does Verizon's iPhone 5 come unlocked"  in the search box on that site.  about 10 recent articals comeup saying it is, but it doesn't say if you get 3G or any kind of data.  just says, you wont be able to get LTE

  • Do the iPhone 5s come unlock with AT&T

    Do the iPhone 5s come unlock with AT&T

    When ever they are released. At&t will have it. Apple isn't going to miss out on making sales trust me.  These releases are getting dumb basically we get a "new" phone every 2 years. All the S is a remake with a few minor upgrades not even worth talking about. 

  • Is the replacement iPhone comes in box

    I got new iPhone 4s from the reseller "jarir bookstore" however after 10 days some problem in the earpieces appear, I returned the device to them asking for replacement, put they refused and they insist to repair the divice which is not happened after 21 days in the maintenance. Ultimately they decided to give me a replacement since the problem was from the manufacturer. However, the replaced iPhone wasn't in any box and without the warranty card ! ! and they said this is the usual replacement from apple. But I don't think that the truth especially that defect comes from the manufacturer. Anybody can assist me in the said. Thanks

    I've never seen an iPhone come with a "warranty card". Maybe it's different in your part of the world, but somehow, I doubt the "jarir bookstore" is an authorized source for the iPhone.

  • Is the New iPhone 6 factory unlocked ?

    Is the new iPhone 6 factory unlocked ?

    when you buy a phone with a contract you pay much less because the carrier pay the difference relying on making profit on your contract
    so the factory unlocked versions are much much more expensive

  • How to get the replace iphone in Malaysia or Vietnam?

    I got wifi problem with iphone 4s. After trying all methods to fix it, I totally give up and now, I want to a replace iphone. How could I get a replace iPhone in Malaysia or Vietnam?

    Warranty is valid only in country of original purchase. You will
    have to return the iPhone to that country for repair/replacement,
    meaning you will have to bring it there yourself or ship it to
    a friend or relative in that country who will bring it in and send
    back to you - all shipping and insurance costs are your
    responsibility. Apple does not accept international shipments for
    repair nor does Apple ship out of the country after repair/replacement.

  • Is the US iPhone 4 factory unlock?

    Hello friends, I live in Indonesia and I have a friend who stays in US and he will be going to Indonesia soon. I want him to buy me an iPhone 4 from the US but I was afraid that the US iPhone 4 is not factory unlock and it can't be used out of the US territory. Does anybody know about this? Thanks so much.

    Canada:
    1. iPhone 4 is locked to a Canadian carrier network licensed to sell the iPhone on their network when purchased from an authorized dealer including the Apple Retail Store.
    2. iPhone 4 is unlocked when purchased at full price only through the Canadian Apple Online Store.

  • Will my replacement iPhone 4S be unlocked?

    My phone wont charge/turn on, so I have an option of getting it replaced for $199, but my current iPhone is locked and not under any carrier contract, due to personal reasons. If i get the replacement phone, would the new one still be locked under the same conditions?

    You will get a refurbished unit that is the same as what you turn in. If yours is locked to a service, then so will the replacement.

  • Does the iphone 5 comes unlock?

    I wanna know if I can use my iPhone 5 with another carrier outside the country

        That's a great question Dvidtrrs. I am happy to inform you that yes, you may use your iPhone 5 while traveling out of the country. The iPhone 5 is already unlocked, so you may insert the SIM card from the international carrier and use your device while traveling.

  • Does the Canada iphone 4 come with sim card.

    I ordered a iphone 4 (no contract) from the online canada apple store a few days ago and I have read that they say you have to buy another micro sim card for the phone to work with your existing plan, however I'm not sure if the phone already comes with one. Has anyone gotten a no-term phone from apple canada yet and if you have did it come with a sim card. I would like to know before I get the phone because if it doesn't I would I get the micro sim in advance as I live a fair distance from a Carrier store.

    I dont think it come with the Micro Sim card. I believe that is only if you buy from a carrier, not when you buy from apple. I do know that you can go buy a rogers micro sim card for only $10, i called them and confirmed this. So it really isn't a big deal

  • Is the Orange Iphone 4 handset Unlocked? (UK)

    Does anyone know if the orange PayG iPhone4 handset is unlocked. If it is unlocked I might have to cancel my order with apple as orange are selling the iphone4 at a cheaper price.

    From what I can gather the handsets (including PAYG) bought from a network are locked to that network. For the sake of £30 difference between a 32GB bought from Apple SIM free, and a locked one on PAYG I'd rather have a SIM free one and so sticking with my order from Apple.
    The difference of the 16GB is even less.
