Which apple store in usa can i buy the iphone 5 factory unlock

which apple store in USA can I buy the iphone 5 factory unlock

Well, it is a requirement in the UK that they be sold unlocked.  If you remember when the iPhone was first launched in the UK, all the phones were carrier locked to 02 in an exclusive deal and then they became unlocked when Vodafone, 3 and Orange etc, started to be able to offer the iPhone.
Unfortunately, the US is different, but there are 3 carrier to choose from now with AT&T, Verizon and Sprint.  For a few years it was only AT&T.  Just works differently out there, depending on networks and agreements with the phone carriers.

  • Can u buy the iphone 5S unlocked in america

    Can u buy the iphone 5S unlocked in america?

    Yes. Doing so with the intent of using it in a different country, however, is not wise.  The warranty is not valid outside of the U.S. and it will not work with LTE frequencies used outsided of North America.

  • Can i buy the iphone 4S unlocked day 14?

    I want to know if i can buy the unlocked iphone 4S on day 14, because on the online apple store i can only buy in november.

    Day 14 as in October 14th? If so and you are in the US, the US online store indicates an unlocked 4S won't be available for sale online until sometime in November? If so, doubtful an unlocked 4S will be available for sale at a retail store on 10/14 either.

  • When can i buy the iphone 5 unlocked

    will i be able to preorder online? will i be able to purchase it on the 21st?
    thank you

    As of right now, there is no officially unlocked iPhone 5 listed on Apple's online store, in the US, for pre-order. So, if your plan is to purchase in the US, you might want to rethink your plan.

  • I bought an iphone 5 from apple store in USA, can i use it overseas?

    i bought an iphone 5 from apple store in USA, can i use it overseas, eg, China,?

    Yes, but you will be using it in China with the international roaming feature.
    There are no unlocked iPhone 5's being sold in the US at present so you can't use it with a local nano sim card. There will also be LTE frequency compatibility issues too.

    Hi, if i tomorrow i'll go to a store and i try yo buy an iphone 5s unlocked. Can i buy it or i've to buy it online with the shipping?

    Shipping in the US is always free.  The variable is in-store stock levels.  It's first-come-first-served and the only way to reserve one is by making an online purchase.

  • I have a isic card and i am a student and i want to see if you have any discount for app for apple and for the i phones and if i have the b.o.box in the us can i buy the iPhone from your site

    i have a isic card and i am a student and i want to see if you have any discount for app for apple and for the i phones and if i have the b.o.box in the us can i buy the iPhone from your site

    Apple does not offer educational discounts on the iPhone. I don't know what you mean by "app for Apple".

  • I 'm French and i want to buy the iphone 5 unlocked in USA

    Hello i'am French and i want to buy the Iphone 5 unlocked in USA. Because i will go to USA. Is it possible ? And how i would do it ?
    Thank You !

    Well mate, this is a bit complicated here in North America (being from Europe myself): in the USA you can as of now only purchase phones locked to the three major carriers and they only support the "local" LTE bands. In Canada (where I live) on the other hand, you can purchase unlocked iPhones (if available!) from any Apple Store. However they also only support the North American LTE frequencies, while in Europe they are slightly different. This is the reason, why Apple sells three different iPhone 5: http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2012/09/iphone5-lte-model/.
    So to prevent hassle, I would strongly recommend to purchase the iPhone 5 in Europe.
    Good luck!

  • If i buy the iphone 4s unlocked, it will work in israel?

    If i buy the iphone 4s unlocked, it will work in israel?

    What if it's a Verizon iPhone?
    Are all iPhones originally made "for" a carrier? If I'm in an electronics store (not a carrier store) and they have an iPhone for sale, do I need to ask what carrier it is for? I know for sure that it works with AT&amp;T phones which are GSM.
    I heard Verizon iPhones can't be unlocked for foreign GSM SIMS except by Verizon, who will only do it for customers, ie if u have a contract.
    iPhone 4S, iOS 6.1.2
