Hi. i'm from italy. i am intersted on buying the "unlocked" iphone 4 from the online apple store in the USA.. asking my relatives to buy it for me and get it shipped here in Italy.

my question is..is it possible to do so??
will the iphone be usable under Italy's network coverage??

if you have 5.0.1 installed, the WIND network will not work... I also have this problem... so im waiting some actions or from apple (new update, which will fix this issue) or from WIND (i hope they can fix it too, setting up the network in some way)

Possibly; it depends on where you are and what model of iPhone you're interested in. Call or visit your local Apple Store and ask.

Hey! when i buy an unlocked iphone from usa, dose it work in romania?

hey! when i buy an unlocked iphone 5 from usa, dose it work in romania?

You'd be better served by purchasing an officially unlocked iPhone 5 in one of the EU countries. Except for the EU, iPhone warranty/support is limited to the country of original purchase. Thus, you won't have any warranty or support, for a US iPhone, where you live. However, if you purchase an iPhone in any EU country, your warranty/support is EU wide. Further, US iPhone 5's do not support LTE in Europe, only the models sold in Europe support such. Given these two issues, doesn't it make more sense to purchase your phone in Europe?

HT201328 Does buying an unlocked iphone from apple disable some features

I am currently looking to get an iphone5 and saw Apple sells unlocked iphones. I currently have an iphone4 that was an At&t phone but I had them unlock it when my contract expired. I switched over to Straighttalk and it doesnt allow my MMS features to work on their plan. Ive tried to switch the MMS settings but nothing worked. If I was to buy an iphone5 would it work on any system with different sim cards and if I had to change the settings would I be able to restore them to the way it was when i purchased it in case certain things dont work. Please help

Yes. The T-Mobile nanoSIM which came with the full price, unlocked iPhone 5 will work for a prepaid plan. However, neither Apple retail store employees nor the T-Mobile customer svc reps know this. It was quite an ordeal to activate. I had to order the prepaid activation kit online, wait for its arrival by snail mail, then use the activation code from the kit with the nanoSIM to activate the prepaid monthly plan $30/mon for 100 min+ unlim text + 5 GB 4G/LTE. I live in Pasadena, CA, and the 4G and LTE coverage here is extensive and reliable.
I tossed the SIM which came with the activation kit.
My local T-Mobile retail store wouldn't sell me a prepaid activation kit when I told them that I wanted the web-only $30/mon plan. The customer svc reps couldn't or wouldn't give me an activation code to use either.

Hi. If i buy an unlocked iphone from canada. Will i be able to use it in Mauritius Island on network Orange?

Hi,
I live in Mauritius Island. My brother wants to send me an unlocked iphone 5s from CANADA as a gift, but i am unsure if i wil be able to use it here. Can you help? We use Orange here.

Not sure that they are selling unlocked phones in Canada. Mostly, the Canadian phones are carrier locked and the Canadian carrier do not offer unlocking, with Bell being the main one.
It might work, but this would only be on 3G because you have to remember the frequency differences and phones built in Canada were designed to work in Canada with the Canadian carriers/networks.
Also be aware that warranty for the iPhone is not international, so if anything goes wrong with the phone and you need help, you'll have to physically go back to Canada or post the phone back to your brother in Canada, but not directly to Apple.

I'm visiting Boston from Europe and was wondering if I could buy an unlocked iPhone 5 at a retail store.

So the thing is that I need an iPhone 5 that I can use in my country (Iceland). It's so much cheaper for me to buy it in the USA than here at home.
Is Apple selling completely unlocked iPhone 5's at the retail stores and if yes, how much are they selling them at?
Best regards,
Gunnar - Iceland

Apple has not even announced when or if they will release an unlocked iphone 5 in the U.S.

If I buy an unlocked iphone from the usa, will it be compatable in the uk?

I would like to buy an Iphone from the USA but am concerned that I will not be able to use it in the UK. Can anyone confirm if this is possible and if there is anything I will need to do?

The officially unlocked GSM version will work fine. But why on earth do you want to do this? The iPhone warranty is not a true international warranty, thus you most likely won't have any warranty & support in the UK for a US purchased iPhone. Not to mention you can purchase officially unlocked iPhones in the UK. Your money, do what you want.

If I buy an unlocked iphone from apple in US will it work in uk when u get home with my tmobile sim?

Anyone know

Yes, but not with LTE network access if T-Mobile in the UK has LTE network access.
In addition, the warranty if needed will be honored in the U.S. only. Any problem with the iPhone that cannot be resolved by any other means besides an exchange under warranty will require you returning to the U.S. with the iPhone for the exchange.

Will the unlocked iPhone 6 from UAE-Online-Apple-Store support LTE in UAE?

Currently I'm trying to buy an unlocked iPhone 6 from UAE Online Apple Store. The unlocked iPhone price was 650 AED cheaper than the local provider unlocked iPhone!
This makes me wonder why is that? and is there any thing technically different? And the most important question, is this inlocked iPhone 6, that I'm going to order from UAE Online Apple Store, will support LTE in UAE? (Note that all the carriers in UAE offer LTE on iPhone).
Just to make sure that all the same before I order it.

Do NOT buy the iphone 6 from UAE store. It is only unlocked as far as the carrier choice goes. There is NO FACETIME at all.
Apple should be ashamed at calling it unlocked! I ordered one and now they are delaying the return! It's absolutely no use to me if it doesn't work and is only suited to a market that embraces technology.
First, the term "unlocked" has nothing to do with which features are available to you. Second, the lack of FaceTime in the Middle East is nothing new. This is a restriction placed on Apple by local governments and carriers for all devices sold in those markets.

Officially unlocked iPhone from Canada in the US

If buy a unlocked iPhone from Canada and want to use it in the states, can i still get warranty services and apple support in the states ?

If you have to get a replacement phone for any reason, you will probably have to get it from Canada. The service replacements stocked at US Apple Stores are locked to AT&T.

Can I buy an unlocked iPhone 5, activate it in the US and then use it in Italy?

I am an italian guy studying in the states and I want to buy an unlocked iPhone 5 here in the US, but I’ll go back permanently in Italy in May.
1429 CDMA model should well with my ATT sim since it covers all GSM features, right?
Then back in Italy I just need to put in a nano sim from my italian carrier and that’s it…it should work.
Just one more question….is it better to activate the iPhone with US sim or Italian sim i have on my iPad 4?
Although I don’t have internet pack in neither of sims, thus I use WiFi to activate it, but i don’t know if it’s better to put italian sim for some reasons i don’t know…Anyway i’ll use another sim back in Italy (sim in iPad is not my “official” number, i just use it for data pack).
I hope everything is clear and easy to understand.
Thank you!

Matter of fact i do not need LTE in US, i just need normal 3G connection, and there shouldn't be any troubles with ATT for that, right?
Correct, but AT&T will require you sign a contact for new service, whether your phone is unlocked or not. They don't do pay-as-you-go for the iPhone.
Thus 1429 CDMA won't work with LTE in Italy?
Only if roaming with Verizon, otherwise, no.

My mom got the iPad mini for Christmas and she gave me her old iPad but she is still receiving all my messages on her mini. Is there a way to stop her from getting them?

If she is receiving your messages - then you must have somehow setup the iPad to use your iPhone number or your email address on her new iPad. How you did that is beyond me unless you set up her new Mini for her and used your Apple ID on it.
On her iPad got to - Settings>Messages>Send and Receive at>You can be reached by iMessages at>uncheck your phone number or email address of that is what is being used for the contact number.

Sorry , but product is iPhone 5S

You can't buy from the Apple store online in the US because it is country specific and you firstly need a US credit card and then a US address and they won't ship outside of the US so you can't.
No Apple online store will ship outside the coutry.
If you want an iPhone, then you'll have to order via the Russian Apple store online if there is one, or you'll have to wait until it is released in your own country or go and buy one in Europe.
