HT4528 Can you buy an unlocked iPhone 5 off of this site and have it activated for Verizon service?
I am wanting to buy a new iPhone 5, but I am not eligable for an upgrade yet so I'm planning on just buying an unlocked one. I don't know if I can, though, because it doesn't say that you can activate it on Verizon's service. Any help?
The iPhone 5 for Verizon is unlocked for GSM networks worldwide. So you need to get a Verizon 5 for full price.

If I buy an unlocked iphone 6 in the uk and have a uk sim card in it initially, will i be able to use my german sim card in it when i'm in germany and return back to my UK sim card on my return?
Yes. But make sure you buy it at an Apple Store. Other stores selling SIM free iPhones will sell those that will usually lock to the carrier whose SIM is used to first activate the phone. Then you will be stuck.

Although I agree pretty much with what you say, since there is no unlocked phone yet announced, we don't know which of the three models Apple may make available unlocked. -

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

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 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?puneet.marwaha wrote:
yes u r true...
but it will work on 3g in india...and also it seems much cheaper in US rather than in India...again no warranty but i think these types of gadgets work for long....
But the risk is high and sometimes it's not worth it. Anyway, good luck to you. -
Can I buy an unlocked iPhone 4S at retail stores in the US (Florida) or only online?
Hi, I will be travellin to the US (Florida) in late January, and would like to know if I can buy an unlocked iPhone 4S at a retail store. I've tried buying it online, but it will only accept US credit cards.
Thanks in advance! Alejo (from Argentina)It was my understanding that you could get an unlocked iPhone 4s in the US only through the online store. I have since run across internet articles and forum posts that said some local Apples stores in the US can now sell you an unlocked iPhone 4s. I would suggest that either you or a friend call the Apple store you plan on visiting to see if they will sell you an unlocked 4s.
