IPad Mini with Cellular  is usable in Japan and/or in Mexico?

If I purchase an iPad Mini + Cellular in the US, will I be able to use it in Japan and / or Mexico on their cellular networks?   
Which US carrier model would be a better choice for someone who visits Japan (1 month every year) and Mexico (3 months every year)? 
My permanent residence is in New York City. 
I would like to use an iPad Mini + Cellular in conjunction with my regular cell phone ("non smart" phone) -- since I do not make many phone calls but use email a lot, I am hoping to use the iPad Mini + Cellular just like I would use a smart phone, minus the telephone capability.  If I need to make phone calls away from  home, I would use my regular cell.
I am feeling really confused about which iPad Mini + Cellular model to choose.  Appreciate good advice.  Thank you.

Hello.  Thanks for your input.  (I have checked these three countries' Apple store websites and found that all three countries list models A1454 and A1455 as their cellular capable models.)

  • Planning to buy iPad Mini with Cellular in US with TMobile Carrier. Is this unlocked? can i use my iPad in India with there cellular service??

    Planning to buy iPad Mini with Cellular in US with TMobile Carrier. Is this unlocked? can i use my iPad in India with there cellular service??

    That will depend on how you buy the iPad.
    If you buy it from an Apple Store directly at full price it will be unlocked, and can take a sim card from any compatible GSM carrier.
    If you buy it directly from T-Mobile under a subsidy(at a discount price tied to a service contract)  Then it may be locked to T-Mobile for at least 40 days of service with them.

  • Ipad mini with cellular for ireland

    If i buy an ipad mini with cellular in the usa, will it work in Ireland? if so does it matter which cellular i choose?

    Both models are GSM compatible, so it doesn't matter at the moment which one you pick, it will work in Ireland.
    This will change once LTE is in operation in Ireland (early-mid 2013), since two models use different LTE bands.
    LTE in UK (and most likely Ireland) will be band 3, so if you want to be able to take benefit from that, you need to make sure your model is A1455. In US they use mostly band 4, which is compatible with model A1445.

  • Does Ipad Mini with cellular make calls?

    does Ipad Mini with cellular make calls? Is it supported in Malaysia?

    The best app I found is Fongo. Available in the Canadian appstore only.
    Free with an ads banner. It gives a free phone number. It allows 911 calls. You can receive and make free calls to most of Canada. You can receive free sms from anywhere and make free messages only to fongo users.
    Paid services are available in 4 packages:
    1-World Credits: $5, $20 and $50 Credit to make international calls and to canadian cities outside free calling areas;
    2-Unlimited Canada Texting: $1.99 for 1 month, $4.99 for 3 months and $9.99 for 6 months of unlimited Canada texting;
    3-Unlimited Canada + US Texting: $2.99 for 1 month, $7.99 for 3 months and $15.99 for 6 months of unlimited Canada and US texting;
    4-Permanent ads removal fee: $2.99
    The second app I recommend is Magicjack.
    Free without ads. Free subscription allows free outgoing calls to USA and Canada and incoming calls from MagicJack users. $10 per year to get a US number for incoming calls.
    Canadian numbers are avaialable for $20 first year then $10 per year.
    No sms services available.
    The third best app is Google voice and it alows free calls to USA and Canada. In order to receive calls you must subscribe from USA on http://voice.google.com to get a free US number. Then you can get an app called vtok from appstore to receive calls. This app will not give you notifications of incoming calls unless if it is running.
    Vonage is a good app for free calls to US, Canadian calls cost 1 cent per minute (used to be free).
    Skype is an interesting app that allows you to subscribe to different services.The best is the 2.95 per month unlimited US and Canada with the following options:
    1-A caller ID with your US or Canadian number
    2-Skype to Go Numbers (local numbers assigned to skype contacts and long distance phone numbers)
    3-Call forwarding
    Another service is the Skype Numbers (phone-to-skype) available in 2 packages:
    1-3 month subscription of $18. Sometimes 33% off
    2-12 month subscription of $60. Sometimes 50% off

    Does ipad mini with cellular can use in the phillipines?

    You can definitely use it with wi-fi. However, cellular would depend on your local telephone company.

  • If I buy a ipad mini with cellular, and not sign up for cellular service, can I use the onboard GPS, or does it depend on the cell signal since it is aGPS

    If I buy a ipad mini with cellular, and not sign up for cellular service, can I use the onboard GPS, or does it depend on the cell signal since it is aGPS?

    Right. But as I understand it, the aGPS is a function that speeds location using cell signals, but isn't necessary for the GPS signal. I can buy a plugin device that is a real GPS that I can use with my iPad mini. However, I would need an app for maps. I was wondering if anyone had used one of these.

    Delete the music in your iTunes library, then go to iTunes store, Quick Link, 'Purchased' to redownload again.

  • Bought an iPad mini with AppleCare registered in my name and need to change it to my wife's name - how?

    Bought an iPad mini with AppleCare registered in my name and need to change it to my wife's name - how?

    Apple's customer support can certainly do that, but it is not necessary. AppleCare follows the product, not its owner.
    If you want to contact Apple use the Contact Us link at the bottom of this page.

  • Can I use ipad mini with cellular without SIM card

    I have purchased a ipad mini with wifi and cellular, thinking I could use my UK SIM card when required but leave it out when not in the UK. (Live in Qatar)
    I can't activate imessage or facetime, and also I didn't realise it needs a nano sim not my micro sim. I get a cannot connect to network message.
    Do I need to purchase a new sim for the ipad to work properly, I did assume it would work the same as an wifi only ipad if sim wasn't present.
    Thanks

    Thanks James. I was hoping that was the case.
    I've already updated the software, from a quick search that seems to be the network issue for imessage/FaceTime. Is there a fix for this? Ive no back up to go back to.

  • Ipad mini with retina display has really slow and laggy streaming but very high download speed

    I just got my ipad mini with retina display yesterday. The regular internet works fine as far as I can tell. I tried streaming video from watch espn, netflix, and youtube, and all three apps were so slow I couldn't watch anything. I have a high download speed too, it is 15 Mbps. I tried turning off the QOS engine in my router, and my download speed was up to 30 Mbps, and I still had the same terrible streaming quality. I tried changing the DNS as well, and this did nothing. I tried doing all the restarting and other "quick fixes," and nothing seems to work. Can anybody help me?

    I requested your post be moved to the iPad forum. This is the Mac Mini desktop forum
