If I buy an iPhone 6 from the US, it is gonna work in Europe?

Iam from Europe but I am currently studying in the US, Iam concerned that once I return back home my phone will not work. I've heard that European services don't support US phones.
Is this true?

The phone will work, but...
No warranty/support vs EU wide warranty. No LTE vs having LTE. Not much, if any, price differential.
Still seem like a smart idea?

  • If I buy my iPhone from the apple website can it work in other countries, if I buy my iPhone 5 from the apple website can it work in other countries

    I have not yet bought the phone but I am wondering if I can put other SIM cards from abroad into it and how can I get a message engraved in it

    You can only put other sims in if you purchase an unlocked iPhone.  If you buy one that is subsidized it is locked to a carrier and can only accept other sim cards if it is a Verizon iPhone...Verizon uses the CDMA radio, the GSM radio is unlocked.

  • If i buy an iPhone 5s from the United States will the iPhones warranty be honoured in New Zealand?

    If i buy an iPhone 5s from the United States will the iPhones warranty be honoured in New Zealand?

    Warranty for the iPhone is not and has never been International.
    Purchase the device in the country where it is intended to be used.
    Also, be aware that there is no gurantee that an iPhone from the US will work on LTE anywhere else in the world.

  • If i bought the iphone 4s from the US would it still work in the UK with a UK phone provider?

    Hi,
    Basically I'm looking to buy the iphone 4s from the american store online or from an american store. If I did this would I be able to get it so that I could use it in the UK with a UK phone service provider? Heard various tales about people not being able to use the phone in the UK so want to make sure it will work before I get it!

    An American retailer will not ship the iPhone outside of US borders. Slightly against laws in the US and in other countries.
    You can purchase an officially unlocked iPhone at an Apple retail store in the US. Support and warranty coverage will be honored in the US only.

  • Can i buy an Iphone 5 from the USA if I live in Ireland?

    Hi I was just wondering am i able to buy an iphone 5 or iphone 4s unlocked from apple online or in store in America and will it still work if it is brought to Ireland?
    thanks

    You can not buy an iPhone from Apple online in the US unless you have a U.S. issued credit card and a US shipping/billing address.
    If you want to physically come to the US, you can buy one at any Apple Store.
    The warranty will not be valid outside of the US.  It will not work with LTE networks outside of the US. If you need out of warranty service, you will not be able to get it outside of the US.  You will not be able to ship the phone to Apple in the US for service. You will have to physically carry it back to the US, or you will have to send it to someone you know in the US to take it in for service.

  • I want to buy unlocked iPhone 5 from the Canada Apple store,do they sell the unlocked iPhone 5 model A1429CDMA?

    Does the Canada Apple store sell the unlocked iPhone 5 model A1429CDMA?

    Canada sells unlocked iPhone 5's.  Why not check this out for yourself by going to the Apple store website and then changing the country to Canada?
    You can't purchase it from the store online though - you'll have to travel directly to Canada yourself to buy it because there is no international shipping available.

  • If i were to buy an iphone unlocked from the apple store in america, could i use it in uk?

    i am going to new york at the end of march, and i noticed it is a **** of a lot cheaper to buy an iphone 4s in america than it is in uk. all i want to know is if i buy it unlocked from apple, which i noticed you can do, if i brought it back to uk and used my vodafone sim, would it be fully functional and receive 3G and software updates etc? i'd like to know before i buy

    Unlocked prices are
    16Gb $649.00  32Gb $749.00  64Gb $849.00   ALL PLUS LOCAL SALES tax
    As said above in New York thats an extra 8.87%
    (you may be able to claim this back at the airport on departure - however you then run the risk on UK customs catching you if you try to run the green channel)
    So lets do the math on the middling model
    $749.00 +8.87%   = $815.43
    Todays conversion  = £518.04
    You may bring in £390.00 TAX free .
    You declare via red channel , you need to pay import duty on £128,.04 at 2.5%
    Thats £3.20
    Plus VAT at 20 % on £128.04 + £3.20 (Yes you pay VAT on the duty !)
    So thats an extra £26.24
    Total cost £518.04 + £3.20 + £26.24  = £547.48 and remember you have NO international warranty.
    Yo could add a warranty from Protect your bubble.com - that £5.99 per month on top of calls etc.....
    So you should add 12 months at £5.99 p/m = £71.88
    Grand total with protection (Near equal to UK purchase)  = £619.36
    Apple UK sell this phone unlocked in the UK for £590.00 - WITH warranty .
    I really think you should look at the deals from the UK networks with monthly contracts before you do self import.
    And remember that ALL UK networks WILL unlock contract phones after a qualifying peroid and for a small fee -Approx £20.00 is the going rate and after no more than three months.

  • If I buy an iPhone 5 in the U.S. will it work in South Africa or not?

    I wanted to buy a iPhone in the U.S. and i wanted to know if it would work in South Africa? Another question is does Apple sell unlocked iPhones?

    "I wanted to buy a iPhone in the U.S. and i wanted to know if it would work in South Africa? "
    it would be locked to the U.S carrier.
    "Another question is does Apple sell unlocked iPhones?"
    In the U.S Apple sell unlocked iphone 4 and 4S.  They do not seel unlocked iphone 5

  • If I buy an iPhone 5S from the official Apple site, will be unlocked for GSM carriers?

    Note that I live in Cyprus.

    There is no online Apple store for Cyprus, so how do you think you are going to buy the phone?  You need to have an address and credit card for the country whose store you are using and they will not ship outside the country, so if you were thinking of using the US Apple store without a US address or credit card, think again, because you won't be able to do it.

  • I want to buy an Iphone 5s in the UK to use in Panama, any idea how to check which model I am buyin online? HELP!!!

    Hi,
    I want to buy an Iphone 5s from the uk apple store online and I will be using it in Panama. I have contacted my carrier (Movistar Panama) and they have given me a list of the Iphone 5s models that will work with their network:
    Model A1533 (GSM)*: UMTS/HSPA+/DC-HSDPA (850, 900, 1700/2100, 1900, 2100 MHz); GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz); LTE (Bands 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 13, 17, 19, 20, 25)
    Do you know how can I get to know if I'm buying the right model from the online store?
    Thanks!

    The A1533 model is sold only in the US, Canada and Puerto Rico. You will not be able to get that model in the UK.

  • Will you be able to buy unlocked iPhone 5s from retail stores in Canada on the 21st?

    Hi,
    This might be the wrong section, but it seems to be the closest fit for my question?
    Anyways, I am planning on buying the iPhone 5 on the 21st in Canada. My plan is to go around 3:30 in the morning(last year I went at 5:30 and was something like 200th in line! and then buy two unlocked iPhones, one for me and one for a friend. I went to the Yorkdale Apple Store in Toronto, Ontario today and they said that they are not really sure, but are probably only selling on-contract phones in store on the launch day. I then however called the Eaton Center Apple Store also in Toronto and was told that they are 100% selling unlocked iPhone 5s from the begining in Canada. I then did the online chat and was told the same thing. So I called Yorkdale back and they still say that they aren't sure but from what they have been told so far it looks like they will only be selling locked phones, and that they will not fully know until the day of, which really is a bit rediculous.
    I was hoping that someone knew whether iPhone 5s would be sold unlocked in Canada at Apple Retail Stores.
    Thanks,
    B

    No idea
    Apple has not yet made  clear the status of the iPhone 6 models they will be selling enough to risk buying and in any case the warranty is NOT nternational
    you will have no warranty on a US purchased iPhone
    Contract free and unlocked are not the same in US
    depends on how much you want to risk your money
    You would need the A1586 very unlikely to be available in US in an unlocked status

  • Where to buy my iPhone 5 from? I will be living in Canada for a while after 6 months. And returning to the UK regularly so I want an unlocked iPhone so I can use a local sim in Canada and a local sim in the UK to keep roaming costs down. But which model?

    Thank you for you help in advance

    If you buy an iPhone at the UK or Canadian Apple stores, it should work on the GSM frequencies in both countries. LTE will not work as the LTE channels are different in each country and each iPhone sold in each country is only compatible on LTE channels of that particular country. Other wise it should be fine.
    Be aware that only the Apple store (retail or online) sells the unlocked iPhone in the UK. I think the situation is similar in Canada. (It is in the US).
