HT4623 Can I buy an iphone in america and use it in europe?

...

Have you googled this?  You have options... Use American carrier and roam, buy an unlocked iPhone or use the Verizon iPhone 5 as it seems to have an unlocked gsm portion.  Gsm is more prevalent in Europe so make sure you have a gsm phone.

  • Can I buy an iPhone in Dubai and use it in Mauritius?

    Hello. I want to buy an iPhone 5s 16GB in Dubai as it's cheaper there. But the thing is that I want to use it in Mauritius. Can I buy it in Dubai and use it in Mauritius?

    If it's an unlocked phone, then yes. However, if you live permanently in Mauritius then you will not be able to get any warranty service there if the phone comes from Dubai. The warranty is only good in the country of purchase. And, you may be required to pay import duty or taxes (you should check on that.) In all it would probably be better to buy it in the country where you live.

  • Can you buy a iPhone in America and then swap it to a Australia network?

    Hi,
    My mum wants to get my sister a iPhone 4 for her 15th birthday, but she thinks buying it in Australia is a little silly, because shes going to America next month and wants to get it there because its cheaper (even though the Aussie dollars higher?) and then bring it here (unused), andd would it then be possible to set it up on a Australian network?
    Any help with this question would be greatly appreciated.

    I converted the US prices and the Australian prices to British pounds:  a 16GB iPhone costs around 403GBP in the US, and around 569GBP in Australia.
    I can understand where the OP is coming from.... but repeat that taxes could wipe out that difference.
    There is also the warranty problem. Will Apple Australia give help and repair a US Phone?
    I've talked myself out of it. Buy Australian!

  • Can I buy an iphone 6 outright, and use it on my prepaid plan?

  • Can i buy a mini from USA and use it in Europe?

    Does anybody knows if I will have problem with the electricity power if I use a simple power converter from USA to Europe standards?
    Has anybody done this before?

    Check the rating plate on your mini to make sure but you will probably find it is rated for 100-240V so no converter will be needed, although you will require a plug adapter/new power lead.

  • How can I buy an iphone 4 unlocked to use it in my country

    Hello
    I want to ask how can I buy an iphone 4S unlocked to use it in my country. (Argentina), It is posibble?

    If you buy an unlocked phone in a country other than your native one, the warranty will only apply in the country you bought it in.

  • Can i buy an iphone in US and then use it in India with Indian Networks

    can i buy an iphone in US and then use it in India with Indian Networks

    Asked all the time here. If officially unlocked, yes, the phone will work in India. Officially unlocked iPhones are only sold by Apple in the US...no where else. Currently, the only unlocked model available is the T-Mobile labeled iPhone.
    Your warranty/support will only be valid in the US...they won't touch the phone in India if you have any problems or issues. And, the phone will most likely not support LTE in India.

  • Can i buy i phone from US and use it in India or different part of the world after unlocking it? if yes, than will apple unlock it or need  to do it by myself?

    can i buy i phone from US and use it in India or different part of the world after unlocking it? if yes, than will apple unlock it or need  to do it by myself?

    There are no officially unlocked iPhone 5's available, in the US, at the present time. No announcement, as to availability has been made. The only unlocked iPhone, available now, is the iPhone 4 or 4S. Either of these versions will work, but will have no warranty or support in India. They can only be purchased directly from Apple, no where else.

  • Can I buy ipad in an appstore and use it in Russia?

    Can I buy ipad in an appstore and use it in Russia?

    You can buy an iPad in store yes - you can't buy online from, for example, the US online store as none of the Apple stores ship overseas. If you are buying a 3G version then the US Verizon model is CDMA based and doesn't use micro-sim cards; the AT&T version does use micro-sim cards so you should be able to swap in a local sim card.

  • I want to buy a iphone in usa and use it in india its possible

    I want to buy an iphone in usa and use it in india its possible. Because in india there is no authorized unlocked carrier.

    Hello and welcome to discussions. First of all, for the future, please use the subject-field for its intended purpose and put the question into the message body.
    Second, as far as I am aware no unlocked iPhones are sold in the US, which means you should bring one from Spain if they sell them there. But I guess someone from the US will be able to clarify this.
