I live in Hong Kong and i want to buy a iphone...HOW????

i know a shop where you an buy iphones but i just need to know that is it necessary to have a A&T account? can i just use a SIM card?

Since the iPhone has not been officially introduced in Hong Kong, using it requires the phone to be hacked, and any discussion of this violates the forum's TOC.

  • I 'm French and i want to buy the iphone 5 unlocked in USA

    Hello i'am French and i want to buy the Iphone 5 unlocked in USA. Because i will go to USA. Is it possible ? And how i would do it ?
    Thank You !

    Well mate, this is a bit complicated here in North America (being from Europe myself): in the USA you can as of now only purchase phones locked to the three major carriers and they only support the "local" LTE bands. In Canada (where I live) on the other hand, you can purchase unlocked iPhones (if available!) from any Apple Store. However they also only support the North American LTE frequencies, while in Europe they are slightly different. This is the reason, why Apple sells three different iPhone 5: http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2012/09/iphone5-lte-model/.
    So to prevent hassle, I would strongly recommend to purchase the iPhone 5 in Europe.
    Good luck!

  • I am from argentina and i want to buy an iPhone 5s, but in my country i can only use it if the phone is unlocked , i want to know if i buy one of t mobile with no contract and i travel to mi country ( internationaly) i can use it with a sim from argentina

    i am from argentina and i want to buy an iPhone 5s, but in my country i can only use it if the phone is unlocked , i want to know if i buy one of t mobile with no contract and i travel to mi country ( internationaly) i can use it with a sim from argentina

    You should go onto the Tmobile web site and look around. Very soon a pop up window will ask you if you want to chat. You can try asking for someone who knows Spanish (if you prefer), they might have someone available who can chat with you in Spanish.
    I give this suggestion because I remember on the Tmobile website, you can order on line, but they let you choose to pay only a little money up front, then pay off the rest over 24 months, or you can choose to pay for it in full. However, their ordering process does not say whether the paid for in full phone is going to be unlocked or not.
    It may not be, You may have to make a request and say that since you have paid in full please unlock. I am not so sure that a paid for in full phone is automatically sold in unlocked state.
    This is why I suggest you talk to Tmobile to get a definite answer.
    Unless someone else on this forum knows for sure? Hope someone else jumps in to answer. But the best way is to ask for yourself directly from Tmobile.

  • Hello! i am from Romania and i want to buy an iphone from the USA site. can i buy it neverlocked? and if it is possible how much should it cost in totat(with transport and the iphone price)?

    hello! i am from Romania and i want to buy an iphone from the USA site. can i buy it neverlocked? and if it is possible how much should it cost in totat(with transport and the iphone price)?

    You can buy a factory unlocked on direct from Apple sim free, make sure you get the right one and not just a contract free one.  I am sure  one of our US members will be able to give you the price.

  • I am heading out to the US from NZ and I want to buy an Iphone, Will it work in NZ if I buy from Apple and do not connect to any network until back in NZ? Thanks

    When you get to the States, if you will be in an area with an Apple store for a couple days, call and ask about reserving an unlocked iPhone, it takes a couple days to get it in the store from what I understand.
    The current MBP 15" models are 2.2 and 2.4 GHz i7 machines.  There is a 17" with 2.5 GHz i7.
    The difference, in addition to the slightly faster cpu, is:
    2.2 GHz - Radeon HD 6750 M with 512 MB VRAM
    2.4 GHz - Radeon HD 6770 M with 1 GB VRAM
    Both have the same hard drive, 750 GB 5400 rpm, both have the same primary graphics - Intel 3000.
    So the difference is in the discrete grapics processor, important for heavy video work, heavy gaming...but will drain the battery a lot faster.
    You can get all the details on any Mac computer by going to http://www.everymac.com and click on the model and then scroll down to the exact machine of interest.

  • I am in the US and I want to buy an Iphone 5 but I will return to Colombia in two years.

    Iphone 5 does not have a sim card. Does the Iphone 5 will come later with a sim card? do I wait or do I buy an Iphone 4?

    Check the tech specs carefully - http://www.apple.com/iphone/specs.html
    The CDMA iPhones are sold with contracts with either Verizon or Sprint.  They will only work with those CDMA networks.  Their GSM radios will allow roaming in foreign countries, or may be unlocked (if certain contract conditions are met) so they can be used with local nano-SIM cards & plans when travelling outside of the USA (to avoid roaming fees when out of the USA).
    The model A1428 GSM only iPhone 5 model is sold for use with AT&T.  When a factory unlocked version of this becomes available (whenever that is) it could also be used with T-mobile or any GSM provider, but the LTE frequencies may not work with carriers outside of the USA.
    The model A1429 GSM only iPhone 5 is intended for use in Europe, Asia and other places that use different LTE frequencies thatn AT&T does here.  That model is not even expected to be sold here in the USA, as there'd be no carrier to use it with for LTE data.
    I can understand your thinking long term, but honestly, in two years, the iPhone 5 is going to be very, very old news.  We may even be on the iPhone 7 (if they keep naming them in numeric series) or who knows what by then.  So if you are going to be in the USA, why not just get what will work best for you here for those two years, and just plan on retiring it and upgraded when you go back home (or wherever life takes you by then).  You don't even know what changes or upgrades to the networks in Colombia will bring by then - LTE may already be old news and 5g or whatever next is coming may be rolling out.

  • HT1937 I´m brazilian and I want to buy an Iphone 4

    I would like to know if it's possible to buy an iphone 4 in this site, and forward the iphone to Brazil.

    This is not an Apple store site - this is a user-to-user tech support forum - no products are for sale here.
    If you mean the USA online Apple Store, sales and shipments are made only to USA billing and shipping addresses. It's not possible to ship to Brazil.

  • I'm wanting to buy an iphone here in japan but i want to know will it work when i get back to the us

  • HT5085 I have moved from the US to Hong Kong and can't change my address or location in Itunes.

    I have bought a new Iphone in Hong Kong and want to update my country and billing details. I am told I have alive ITunes match account and I need to cancel it but apart from cancelling the automatic renewal there is no obvious way of doing this. I am stick having tried as many of the usual searches of the support site as possible so any help appreciated.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Click on your account name in the top right corner of the iTunes store in the iTunes application on your computer, enter your password and click the "view account" button. Navigate to the Apple ID summary where you have the option to "change country or region".
    In order to change your location, you will need a credit card registered to an address in the location you are trying to change to.
    You cannot change your location if you have credit on your account, if you are unable to spend your credit and leave a balance of zero, contact Apple, which you can do through iTunes Store Support.

  • I bought my iPhone 4 in Hong Kong and I am in Vancouver right now. When I enter the sim card, it locked my iPhone. Is there any way to solve this? Thank you

    I bought my iPhone 4 in Hong Kong and I am in Vancouver right now. When I enter the sim card, it locked my iPhone. Is there any way to solve this? Thank you

    Inserting a SIM card does not lock a phone.
    If the device is carrier locked, the only way to unlock it is to contact the carrier to whom it is locked.

  • Can we use a 5508 WLC in Hong Kong and join 3602 APs in Vietnam to it? Any regulatory contraints?

    Hi friends,
    I am looking for some wisdom here!
    Just wondering if I can use a 5508 WLC in Hong Kong and join 3602 APs in Vietnam to it?
    Any regulatory contsraints / guidelines that would prohibit from doing so?
    - Regards,
    Tarun.

    You have two differnt regulations... here is a link:

    You need to make sure you are not breaking any rules and it is best to have an AP that is specific to that country.  Also if you add multiple country codes on a WLC, the AP's will only be able to use the most common channels and TX power setting allowed on both.  Here is a link explaining that.
