Unlocked iphone 6 in japan

I found out that apple store in japan is selling sim free iphone6  below url
=> http://store.apple.com/jp/buy-iphone/iphone6/5.5インチのディスプレイ-128gb-スペースグレイ-simフリー
I wonder is that unlocked iPhone ? (Carrier unlock, Country unlock)
I knew japan's carriers do not sell unlocked iPhone. (below url)
there are countries list of selling unlocked iPhone
and there is not japan.
iPhone: Wireless carrier support and features

iPhone is available for purchase and activation through Apple, wireless carriers, and authorized resellers (not all options are available in all countries or locations). In most countries, the place of purchase will verify that you have an account with the carrier, and then give you instructions on how to activate your iPhone. Verification of carrier account is not required in countries in which unlocked iPhones are available for sale.
Apple Online Store sells unlocked iPhone in the following countries: Australia, Austria, Belgium (French, Dutch),Brazil, Canada (English, French), China, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hong Kong (English,Chinese), Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Netherlands, Norway, Poland,Portugal, Singapore, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland (French, German), Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey,  United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, and United States.
Is it changed from iphone6? or same(I misunderstanding)?

On the Japanese Apple iPhone 6 buying page, there is a FAQ at the bottom with this question:
http://store.apple.com/jp/buy-iphone/iphone6
国外でもiPhoneを使えますか？
はい。iPhoneは世界中のGSM方式の通信事業者ネットワークで使用できます。Apple Online Storeで販売しているiPhoneはSIMロックが解除されているため、旅行先の通信事業者からSIMカードとサービスを購入すれば利用することがで きます。もしくは、現在お使いの通信事業者による国際ローミングを利用する方法もあります。国際ローミング料金については通信事業者にお問い合わせくださ い。
The translation of this can be found on the same page for the UK page for instance (the US page is different):
http://store.apple.com/uk/buy-iphone/iphone6
Can I use my iPhone outside my home country?
Yes. iPhone is enabled to work on networks using GSM around the world. Because the iPhone sold by the Apple Online Store is unlocked, you can purchase a SIM card and service from a local carrier at your destination. Or check with your home carrier regarding international roaming charges.
So, does this count as a reliable source?

  • Possible to unlock iphone from Japan and use in US?

    I have iphone 4S from Japan. It is locked to Softbank company in Japan. Is it possible to unlock it and use it in US? Now, I am in NY. Anyone think Apple support service in NY can help me?

    No one from Apple can help you at all. Only the Carrier can unlock your device. You will have to contact Softbank directly.
    Sorry,

  • Unlocked iPhone Support and being able to move from carrier to carrier.

    I am currently stationed in Okinawa, Japan. I want to purchase an iPhone and be able to use and change carriers from Softbank to AT&T and any other carrier that I may be stationed at. How do I get a phone that I can keep and move from country to country and still maintain the phone? Do I have to purchase a factory unlocked phone? How do I purchase an officially unlocked iPhone from Japan?

    You must buy a factory unlocked phone.
    You will need to find out if they are sold in Japan, they may not be.
    Not all countries sell unlocked iPhones, for instance you cannot get them in the USA or UK.

    Only the carrier to which the phone is locked can authorize an unlock. None of the Japanese carriers will do that. Sell the phone and buy one that works in Brazil.

  • How can i unlock iphone 4G from japan to use jn nepal

  • I have softbank(japan) SIM card can i use in unlocked iphone 3G?

    im now in japan and i have softbank SIM card. And i want to order an unlocked iphone 3G from australia. can i use it?
    thx.

    All supported carriers require a data plan with the iPhone.
    If your carrier will permit it, you can put a Micro-SIM in the phone that does not have a data plan.  Make sure, however, that you turn off mobile (cellular) data in settings or you're going to potentially rack up some serious charges.  Not to mention tha fact that you are in effect, crippling the phone.
    If you're in the US, attempting to use AT&T, they will automatically add a data plan to the account when they detect you are using an iPhone without one.

    i need an unlocked iPhone 5 to use in my country but i can't go that far like USA or UK to purchase it so i'd be glad if there is any unlocked iPhone 5 in those countries so that i can purchase it easily.

    Japan doesn't sell unlocked iphones, only "sim free" which locks after you put a sim card in it.

  • HT201328 I have an iPhone4 from softbank in Japan, I want to use any carrier sim here in Philippines, what if Softbank in Japan is not offering unlocking iPhone. What can I do?

    I have an iPhone4 from softbank in Japan, I want to use any carrier sim here in Philippines, what if Softbank in Japan is not offering unlocking iPhone. What can I do?

    All you can do is sell your iPhone to someone in Japan and buy another iPhone. Only the carrier can authorize unlocking, and Softbank does not unlock iPhones.

    If you are a gaijin (I'm a gaijin too) never take a iphone in Japan. Your phone will turn to be nothing more than a paper weight once you are out of Japan. I recently moved to UK and my iPhone 4s which bought from AU is now completely useless. AU does not unlock the phone, there is no option in the net to get the same unlocked too. So I decided to advise those gaijins in Japan to never waste your money spending on iPhones in Japan and if possible never get trapped into the services of AU.

  • Since it's impossible to buy an unlocked iphone 6 in Japan, is it possible to unlock it AFTEr purchase so it can be used in the US or other countries?

    Since it's impossible to buy an unlocked iphone 6 in Japan, is it possible to unlock it AFTER purchase so it can be used in the US or other countries?

    How about a workaround?
    I have a second VOIP line attached to my UK phone, it has a US phone number. Any calls to that number ring on my phone so I still receive calls from the US wherever I am, and they are local US calls (to US callers). I would suggest that you use a Japanese phone and a US 2nd number.
    I use a service provider called TalkAtOne, (US based) and I am sure that others exist. Their rates are very low and the lines while a bit variable are average to good mostly.
    It also runs nicely on an iPad, which I have discovered can become a handy desk speakerphone in a pinch.
    Google also offer a free service (Google Voice) but it was absurdly complex to use.

  • Where can I buy an unlocked iphone 3gs in Canada?

    I will go to the other countries in future for business so i wonder if I can buy an unlocked iphone which can be used by inserting SIM card directly since locked iphone can't be used in the other countries? Or can I get offical tech unlocking for my iphone so that it can work in the other countries? Thanks for reply.

    Officially unlocked iPhones are not sold in Canada. You could buy one in a country where they are sold unlocked, then use it in Canada with a Fido or Rogers SIM. The countries that sell them unlocked are listed here:
    <http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1937>
    It may not be easy to buy, though, as they may require a local address, or payment with a debit or credit card issued in their country. Also, the warrantee is valid only in the country of sale. Even if you do get an unlocked iPhone, it may be difficult to get a local SIM in some countries (such as Japan or Korea). Things are easier if you know a resident of the country who is willing to buy the phone or SIM for you.
    You can use a locked Canadian iPhone in other countries but they charge high roaming fees for voice, and exorbitant roaming fees for data. Data roaming can be disabled in "Settings" > "General" > "Network".
    Fido and Rogers have some international plans that will reduce roaming fees a bit. Check with them before you leave.

  • My dad brought me an iPhone from Japan, He sent it to me here in the Philippines to use it, but It say that I need a valid sim to activate my iphone,  I only have softbank sim. What will I do to activate my iPhone 4? Thanks!

    HELP ME PLEASE!

    That phone won't do you any good in the Philippines...send it back. There are NO officially unlocked iPhones sold in Japan, and none of the Japanese carriers offer unlocking for the iPhone.
    There is no way to get the phone officially unlocked...send it back.
