If I buy a iPad 2 in USA, will it work in the UK? If so, does this apply to both the wi-fi

It will work in the UK, though you will need a plug adapter for the charger (you don't need a convertor for the charger).
If you get a 3G version then get the AT&T version as they use micro-sim cards, so you can swap in a UK micro-sim card. The Verizon iPad is CDMA based and doesn't use micro-sim cards, so from a built-in 3G point of view isn't much use in the UK (I'm not aware of any CDMA carriers in Europe).

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 6 in Germany, will it work in the 4G network of Brazil?

Dear list members, do you know if the 4G bands used by iPhone 6 models in Germany are compatible with the 4G bands used in Brazil? I will spend some time in Germany next year and would like to buy an iPhone 6 there, but I'm not sure if I'll be able to use the 4G network when I get back to Brazil. Thank you for the attention.

You have 3 concerns. The first is that you must get an unlocked iPhone 6 for it even to work in Brazil. "Unlocked" is not the same as "SIM-free", so be sure to get Unlocked.
The second is that Apple can refuse to provide warranty or non-warranty service on iPhones outside of the country where purchased (The EU counts as one "country", but Brazil does not). They don't always refuse, but it's hit or miss.
For your 4G question, see: http://www.apple.com/iphone/LTE/

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

I want to buy Iphone 4S or Iphone 5 from USA and ship it to South Africa, will i have carrier problems?

I want to buy Iphone 4S or Iphone 5 from USA and ship it to South Africa, will i have carrier problems?

If you buy a phone from Apple online from USA you must have a credit card with a US address and have it shipped to that same address. If you chose a carrier it will be locked to that carrier. You must buy an UNLOCKED phone to use outside of the US, for the unsubsidized price. For unlocked phones you don't need to choose a carrier. the iPhone 5 is not yet available unlocked; only the 4S is sold as unlocked by Apple.
If you buy from the US Apple site you must return it to the US for warranty service.
LTE is the "next generation" cellular network standard. It is supported in the US by Verizon and AT&T.

I am going to buy an ipad wifi 3g in Malaysia, will it work in the uk?

I am in Kuala Lumpur and am wanting to buy a 64gb I pad with wifi and 3g. Will this work in the uk?

I think that Malaysia is GSM/sim based and that the iPads sold there aren't locked, so it should just be a case of when you get back to the UK putting in a local micro-sim.

Need to know your Mac model. If it's a PowerPC, the max OS is Leopard 10.5.x. If it's an Intel procesor, you can upgrade to Snow Leopard (for $29) & later to Lion.
*Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard installation system requirements*
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24950
Leopard is no longer available at the Apple Store *but may be available by calling Apple Phone Sales @ 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753)*.

Like any other world phone, it will work on any carrier with a supported network. The iPhone must be unlocked, if it is carrier locked, there will be problems.

If I buy an iPhone 5s unlocked from a USA apple store will it work in the UK

If I buy an iPhone 5s unlocked from a USA apple store will it work in the UK

Only if it is unlocked, and they are not selling the unlocked iPhone at the Apple store yet.
EDIT: I'm sorry, I missed that you referred to iPhone 5S. There should be an unlocked 5S, and it could work in Malaysia, but probably not with all of the bands there. Also, the warranty for the device is good only in the US.

Contact your carrier in russia to check whether they support iphone 5.

When i buy a ipad mini from verizon will it work in india

when i buy a ipad mini from verizon will it work in india

BobTheFisherman, thank you
I'm grateful that you helped me with understanding it. Now I get it.
Dah•veed, with all due respect,
What I asked about is the same thing ahmedsamiul707 asked about. I just wanted to know something more about the same thing. When you read the forum, you can see many threads which are exactly the same. Why add another thread if you have the same question? Only wanted an explanation. Was that so hard?
So to make it clear - as BobTheFisherman provided - all iPads are unlocked.

Hi , I am planning to buy i phone 6 from japan , will it work in UK.

Hi , I am planning to buy i phone 6 from japan , will it work in UK.

hello gautam
yes. it will work in the UK.
be sure to buy the iPhone 6 or 6 Plus, and buy it an apple store in Japan (do NOT buy it at a network service provider), and when you buy it be sure to tell the salesperson that you want the SIM free version.
if do the above, then the phone will work in the UK.
here are the frequency/band specs (taken from the apple Japan website). as you can see, all major LTE bands are available on this phone.
UMTS/HSPA+/DC-HSDPA（850、900、1,700/2,100、1,900、2,100MHz）
GSM/EDGE（850、900、1,800、1,900MHz）
LTE（バンド1、2、3、4、5、7、8、13、17、18、19、20、25、26、28、29）
