If I buy an Iphone 5 from america will it work in the UK?

Hi guys I was just wondering if anyone knows that If i purchase an Iphone 5 from America, Pittsburgh will it work in the UK?

LTE will not work at all in Europe ,wrong bands with any European carriers
Warranty is not international ....valid in USA only
Current prices are for a subsidised 24 month contract ,no unlocked iPhone 5 available yet in USA .
UK prices are unlocked tax inc US prices are before sales Tax
You may get caught at customs ...VAT + duty as iPhone is over personal Allowance
Generally not a good idea
The UK version is A1429 GSM not available in US

If i buy an iphone in Kuwait will it work in the UK?

If I buy an iphone from Kuwait will it work in the UK please?

If I buy from Zain or Viva - I think these are networks in Kuwait - would it still work in the UK pls?
Yes, it should.
What is a legitimate source - Apple Store, or authorised Apple resellers?
There is no Apple Store in Kuwait (not one run by Apple themselves, in any case). Viva and Zain are the only authorized resellers of the iPhone in Kuwait.

There are three companies linked to towards the bottom right to purchase an iPhone from. Above those three is Arab Business Machine. Choose one, or check each one out.

If I buy an iPad2 in Cambodia will it work in the uk

If I buy an iPad2 in Cambodia will it work in the uk

The iPad itself will certainly work. If you are referrring to a 3G connection, then yes, it should also work with any compatible GSM carrier and data plan, unless you buy from an unauthorized source in which case it would be possible, albeit unlikely, to get an iPad from one of the few carriers who lock the iPad to themselves.

If I buy an unlocked iPhone in Canada will it work in the UK?

Hello,
I'm going to Canada for a week in October. I was planning on buying an iPhone 5 for my daughter for christmas and noticed it was a lot cheaper in Canada so I was wondering if I bought an unlocked iPhone 5 in Canada could I put a o2 sim in it? And will it work in the UK?
Thanks

I am talking A1429 GSM which has bands 1,3,5
I assume this is not available in North America .( it is not )
Just found chart which identifies the models by geography
Another very good reason for not cross bordering
Thanks for the pointers

If I buy an iphone 5 in America, will it work in the UK?

I am looking to travel to America at the end of October and was wondering if I buy an Iphone 5 out there, if I bring it back, will it work here in the UK?
I've heard that they do work if you unlock the Iphone, not sure if that's true or not?

Apple are not selling unlocked iPhone 5 yet with no indication of when
Apple will when they start selling unlocked be the only source of unlocked iPhone 5
in US all other sources will be locked to a carrier and will only work with that carrier
The US prices currently showing are subsidised 24 month contract and no taxes
Uk prices all inc tax
The warranty is NOT international and the US iPhone 5 will NOT work ever on
4G in the UK
A locked iPhone can ONLY be unlocked by the carrier

If i buy an iPhone in Malaysia,will it works in India?

I am currently living in Malaysia and I am going to study my Medicine in India soon.
As we all know iPhone 6 will be released real soon rumored to be around September 2014.
So my question is if i buy an iPhone 6 in Malaysia,will it still works when I move to India? As I know,you can't use an iPhone which has been brought directly from US due to the SIM -lock I guess..
Will it be the same if I buy an iPhone in Malaysia and can't use it in India or I need to do some kind of unlock process in India?
Thanks in advance..

I see..Let's say if it is an unlocked iPhone which I'm able to use it in Malaysia,so i will also be able to use it in India right?
The locked iPhone is only usable in US whereas the unlocked one will be usable in anywhere outside US?
Thanks for replying ^^
Oh ya,I know that initially all iPhone were only subjected to AT&T carrier which is the US carrier..So is it means we can use it on whatever carrier at anywhere outside of US after we have unlocked it?

If i buy an iphone4 from USA, will it work in Australia?

Will it work in Australia?

If you want to buy an iPhone in the US and use it in other countries, you MUST buy an unlocked iPhone from the Apple store.
Keep in mind that warranty is country specific. Unless you're just getting a heck of a deal because of the currency exchange rate, you are better off buying one in the country you intend to use it in.

If I buy an iPhone in USA, will it work when I return to Australia?

I have an iPhone 5 that I purchased in Australia and dropped it in salt water at the beach. I am heading to Hawaii next week and was wondering
1. Will I be able to get a replacement phone from the genius bar in Hawaii?
2. If I can get a replacement, what model will I get as I know apple do not sell iPhone 5 anymore?
2. If I can get a replacement phone, will the replacement iPhone work fine back in Australia with an Australian sim card?
3. How much would this cost?
Thank you.

It is Prudent to purchase the Phone in the Country it is intended for use in... it will then work as expected.
If you are attracted by the seemingly Cheap prices in the US... you are failing to take into account that you are probably looking at the phones that are LOCKED and CONTRACTED to a US Carrier.
AND...
iPhone Warranty > The warranty is only valid in the country of original purchase... Except for EU Countries..

Hello , my name bonilla astrid buy an iphone 5 from a seller and I forgot the key put it 10 times and I did not realize I had icloud account of the seller and is no longer in the country nose to do would help me please await your response thank you very much .

Sorry, without knowing the Apple ID/Password that was originally used to activate this phone, then there is no way to re-activate it, as you've found out.
Apple can't/won't help you. Your choice is to get this info, or you simply won't be able to re-activate this phone.
If you ex won't give it to you, then consult a lawyer.

HT201269 If I buy a iPhone from verizon can i still use the Genius bar. Can my wife still go to group classes a Apple

I am thinking about buying my wife a IPHONE 5C , She has a IPAD . My question is I have always bought from Apple Store before this. I am with Verizon for other phones and Hotspot. It seems like I come out ahead by buying from Verizon as far as minimum GB
I would still like to use Genius Bar and group sessions at Apple store . Can a person do this if you buy from Verison ?
THANKS

If you haven't purchased your iPhone then yes, you can. Be sure to mention that you want AppleCare+. If they don't know anything about it, leave the store and order through Apple's website. Some of those VZW salespeople are anything but geniuses...

Yes, it will work fine. The only issue being, you may need to obtain a different plug adapter for the power outlets in the UK.

Can we buy iphone from one country and then change the service provider

Hi,
I wanted to know if I buy an iphone from india today can I change the service provider when i come to U.S.A. for my studies in Jan

It seems to depend on the country where you bought your phone.
In Australia, with a post-paid account I can have my carrier unlock the phone for free so I can use the phone on a pre-paid account in the States when I am there.
My carrier here gets paid regardless as I am on a 24-month contract.
