IPhone 6 from usa

HI,
I am a student and would be in USA studying as from next week and would like to know whether if I buy the iPhone 6 plus from there I would be able to use it here in the UK and Europe in general? (obviously will buy the unlocked GSM version) - it won't come with any branding? right?
Also will all features be available on tne iphone, such as facetime and imessage?
One last thing, since I am an EU citizen and travelling to a non-eu country and then back, will I be able to benefit from a rebate on the iphone going back to UK from USA?
tnx

No.  Unlocked phones are not normally available for at least a month or 2 after launch in the US, so no unlocked phones will be available on launch day.
Also, remember that if you buy in the US, you will have no warranty on the phone in the UK, so if something goes wrong, then a UK Apple store will not help you and you'll have to physically take the phone back to the US - in person and no shipping.
It is not worth it - if you want to use the iPhone in the UK, then buy it in the UK and the good news is that in the UK on launch day there will be unlocked phones available for purchase.

    Since it is only the headset that is the problem and not the iPhone it would be better to just buy a new set and not let yourself be frustrated over it.  If you send anything to your sister before the one-year warranty is over, include the headset so she can exchange it at an Apple store.

  • I have purchased sprint carrier iphone 4s from USA. But it cant unlock in nepal so how can i unlock it in nepal

    i have purchased sprint carrier iphone 4s from USA. But it cant unlock in nepal so how can i unlock it in nepal. Thanks for your kind information..

    You will probably not be able to get it unlocked as you probably have to be an existing Sprint customer in order to get it unlocked. Contact them for more information.
    If you cannot get it unlocked, sell it to someone who can use it on Sprint and buy an iPhone you can use in Nepal.

  • Can i by iphone 5c from usa and use it in Belgium

    can i by iphone 5c from usa and use it in Belgium???

    Planning on coming to the US to do so? Factored in import duties? Aware that your warranty/support will only be valid in the US? Aware that the US phone most likely won't support LTE where you live?
    Not a good idea, but the phone will work.

    Well, there is nothing anyone here can do for you. Did you actually purchase it at an Apple Store, or at another retailer like BestBuy, HH Gregg, a mall kiosk, T-Mobile, AT&T, etc?
    The ONLY source for unlocked iPhones in the US is Apple. If you purchased it anywhere other than at an Apple Store, you purchased a locked phone.
    You can call AppleCare and give them the serial number of the phone to confirm the status of the lock.

  • If i bought an Iphone 6 from usa (contract free,T-mobile) can i use in srilanka (outside the usa) ? and to activate it should i have t-mobile sim?

    if i bought an Iphone 6 from usa (contract free,T-mobile) can i use in srilanka (outside the usa) ?
    and to activate it should i have t-mobile sim ?

    As Ethmoid says, it is still a CDMA phone as I told you earlier, and it will not work with t-mobile. Even if Sprint unlocked the phone, it would only unlock the GSM side for international use. They will not unlock the GSM side for domestic use in the 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.

  • Does an iphone 6 from usa work in europe?

    does an iphone 6 from usa work in europe?

    I've used my unlocked iPhone 4 in Aus with a Telstra SIM, and also used my AT&T iPhone 5S with international roaming.  Both work just fine.  AFAIK, the iPhone 6 is a "world phone" which works on multiple GSM bands, so it should work fine too.  And according to this page, you'll get LTE speeds too.
    As to pricing, are you comparing similar phones?  I don't know if the Australian telcos have changed their policies since I used to live there, but it used to be that you bought your phone outright, at full price, and could then use it with whichever carrier you like - an unlocked phone.  Conversely, most phones sold here in the USA are tied to a two-year service contract with the carrier.  The carrier therefore subsidizes the purchase price, secure in the knowledge that the customer is tied into paying them for monthly service for the next 24 months.  Those phones are locked to that carrier at least until that contract expires, and cannot be used with other US carriers' SIMs or with local SIMs when taken overseas.
    If you compare unlocked phones in both countries, you'll probably find the prices are pretty similar.

  • Can I purchase the iphone 4S from USA and use it in India?

    Can I purchase the iphone 4S from USA and use it in India? And will I able to get the international Warranty?

    I heard from friends the best phone reception in India is Nokia or Sony...because the call centres for both companies have call centres in India and they said the best receptions from cellphones/networks is via Nokia or Sony.
    I fully support Apple I have many products but if you spend so much money on an iPhone 4S that didn't work out; why not spend time goggling India's network provider/carrier and do some research?!?
    Or email Apple support with all your questions, details, informations and maybe thay can help you out more.  It was me, the best answer is to Spend the time on research before making a purchase.
    Good luck.

  • I am from Nepal and want to buy unlocked sim free iphone 5s from USA. So will it work in Nepal?

    I want to buy sim free iphone 5s from USA. So can I be able to use it here in Nepal with either of NCELL or NTC network?

    Any unlocked iPhone should work as a GSM phone anywhere in the world. However, iPhones have additional features that will not work on networks that are not partners with Apple. The features that may not work  include:
    iTunes store and App Store
    Visual Voicemail (almost certainly will not work)
    LTE networks
    3G networks
    iMessage
    FaceTime
    MMS
    GameCenter
    Your Apple warranty will not be honored outside of the country of purchase. You may or may not be able to get services to fix it for a fee; I don't know if independent repair shops in Nepal can handle the iPhone. I do know that they cannot get official Apple replacement parts, so any parts that are needed will be gray market.
    You might be be better off getting a phone in India; at least getting repairs and warranty service won't require traveling back to the US.

  • How i can buy iphone 3gs from USA or Germany

    Hi
    I'm from Egypt and i want to buy iphone 3gs from USA or Germany not from Egypt, Is there anyway to buy from USA or Germany with the same price of USA or Germany not Egypt ?
    And is there away you can send it to me to Egypt ?
    Thanks in advance...:)

    This is a user to user help forum only.
    The lower/advertised price for the iPhone in the U.S. is AT&T's subsidized or discounted price for the iPhone, which requires signing a two year contract with AT&T for the subsidy or discount that AT&T pays Apple on a subscriber's behalf.
    The iPhone is sold in the U.S. as carrier locked with AT&T only. None of the iPhone functions work until the iPhone is activated with AT&T with the exception of being able to make an emergency 911 call in the U.S. Apple nor AT&T in the U.S. will ship an iPhone to anyone outside of the U.S. AT&T also sells the iPhone in the U.S. at a no-contract/no-commitment or at the full retail sales price which is much more expensive, but the iPhone remains carrier locked with AT&T. A verifiable billing address in the U.S. is required along with a credit check by AT&T which is no different that what is required with a two year contract. The no-contract or no-commitment for the iPhone in the U.S. is billed the same as a subscriber with a two year contact but since there is no contract it is on a month to month basis which can be cancelled at any time without a penalty.
    The iPhone is sold in Germany as carrier locked with T-Mobile I believe. Not sure of the iPhone is also sold as officially unlocked in Germany. If so, Apple's support and warranty for the iPhone is honored in the country where the iPhone was sold officially by Apple only. If you are able to purchase the iPhone in Germany as officially unlocked for use with a carrier in Egypt, if a problem develops with the iPhone that requires an exchange under warranty, you would have to return to Germany for an exchange under warranty.
    The sales price for the iPhone in each country is determined by the official carrier for the iPhone in each country.

  • If I ask my friend buy iphone 5s from usa apple store will it work in malaysia if it's locked

    i wanted to buy an Iphone 5s from usa because it is cheaper there. If i buy from the apple store and i didn't subscribe any telephone services there will it work here in malaysia?

    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.
