IPhone from USA vs. iPhone in Europe (A1586)

Hi,
Is there ANY difference between an iPhone 6 (or any older iPhone...) ("european" model A1586) bought in USA and an iPhone 6 evailable (later) in Poland?
I have a friend that can buy one for me, but I'm still not 100% sure that it will be a safe solution. I heard about LTE or battery issues.
But... maybe that's just another legend?

Thanks guys,
Let's forget the warrenty for a second.
What about the technical part?
If I go to the Apple Store in New York and buy an iPhone 6 ( model A1586 for Europe, if available) - is this THE SAME iPhone one can buy a month later in Poland etc.??
I'm hearing the same answer all the time - MAY BE.
I want to know: YES or NO
Buy or not to buy, that is the question.

  • 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 buy an iPhone from USA online and use it in Europe?

    Can i buy an iPhone from USA online and use it in Europe?

    If you use a credit card from a financial institution in the US,
    with a verified billing address in the US, and ship the order to
    the US. Warranty will be valid only in the US and LTE will not
    work in EU. The low prices you see for some iPhones are
    because the iPhone requires a 2 year contract with a wireless
    carrier in the US. Prices for unlocked (useable with any carrier)
    iPhone 5 are $649 for 16 GB, $747 for 32 GB, and $849 for 64 GB
    + applicable taxes which will vary with shipping destination within
    the US. Still interested?

  • Hey! when i buy an unlocked iphone from usa, dose it work in romania?

    hey! when i buy an unlocked iphone 5 from usa, dose it work in romania?

    You'd be better served by purchasing an officially unlocked iPhone 5 in one of the EU countries. Except for the EU, iPhone warranty/support is limited to the country of original purchase. Thus, you won't have any warranty or support, for a US iPhone, where you live. However, if you purchase an iPhone in any EU country, your warranty/support is EU wide. Further, US iPhone 5's do not support LTE in Europe, only the models sold in Europe support such. Given these two issues, doesn't it make more sense to purchase your phone in Europe?

  • 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.

    Hi! I bought my iPhone from USA and the power button doesn't work. I have warranty. I will come to UK soon. I wanna learn; can i benefit my warranty in UK?

    The warranty is not and has never been International.  Warranty and support are only valid in the country of origin.  The only exception is for devices sold in the EU where the EU is treated as one country for warranty and support purposes.

    Unlocked means unlocked, so yes.
    But, support and namely warranty coverage may not be available for you in Norway or anywhere but in the US with any iPhone purchased in the US, even an unlocked iPhone purchased in the US.
