Which iPad 4 should I buy if I live outside the US and I want wifi   Celullar

I want to buy the new ipad from apple.com, i live outside the US, which carrier should i select to work celullar outside the us? or do i need to buy one factory unlocked?
thx...

Did you read the specs I linked to? All iPads have a sim card slot for local sim cards regardless of where worldwide. Again, a local carrier must offer local iPad data plans and a local sim card.
The Verizon, etc. carrier designations only have significance in the USofA where two networks are avaialable, GSM and CDMA. In the USofA if you subscribe to a USofA carrier using CDMA then you must purchase the iPad designed to use CDMA. But again and per the specifications,  any post iPad2 iPad, GSM or CDMA will work worldwide on GSM networks.

  • Which iPad Retina should I buy in the US so it will work in the UK?

    I am going to the States next month and want to buy the new iPad there.  Which iPad Retina should I buy in the US so it will work in the UK, the AT&T or Verizon model? I'm probably staying with O2, but can't tell if different models are sold in the UK, or if its just the one.  If just the one, I can't find which model number it is for the UK. The apple store website isn't exactly clear on which model(s) is/are sold in the UK.

    Hi,
    We don't have cellular, but I have often read many ques. and answers here just for my own info when we were first buying. I do know that in the past, Verizon had a different system than ATT and others. That could all have changed with LTE. I checked a couple of articles and found the following links which might help you. PLEASE NOTE these were published in March and May of 2012, so things might have changed with the new ipad 4. Also note that you can buy a cellular here without a contract that you could then set up with your own UK phone company.

    You also said you wanted retina display and then said you were probably staying with 02. If by that you mean the ipad 2, I want to let you know that the ipad 2 does NOT have the retina display. That would mean you'd have to get the old discontinued 'new' ipad or the ipad 4. And if I were you, I would not even think of buying an old 'new ipad, even if there's a great sale on them. I'd go straight to the ipad 4.
    Make sure you do as much research as possible.
    Hope this helps.

  • Which iPhone should I buy if living in both the US and Europe (Spain)

    Hey everyone,
    My parents live in the US for half the year and Spain for the other half of the year.  I'd like to buy them an iPhone but am not sure which one to get.  I don't think getting a contract in the US would be a good idea, so am thinking of buying one unlocked from an Apple store.
    - Which of the unlocked iPhone 5s will work in both locations
    - Will they be able to swap their Spanish SIM with a TMobile SIM (month to month) without a problem?
    - Any other advice or suggestions?

    You can buy from either country as long as it is a SIM unlocked phone That way you will be able to swap SIMs. Ask at the Apple store. While one phone from either country will work in the other, there are some caveats:
    1). You will only be able to get 3G data speeds and 4G/LTE will work either in one country or the other (but not both) with the same phone as the 4G/LTE frequencies vary between the two countries, and the phones in each of countries are made specifically for the 4G/LTE networks available in the country where the phones are sold.
    2). The warranty is not international and will only be valid in the country where the phone was purchased. If you run into problems in the US and the phone was purchased in Spain you will have to bring the phone back for both in and out of warranty service to Spain (or any EU country as the EU is treated as one country for warranty purposes).

  • Which refurbished iPhone should I buy to work with my iPad 3 wifi.  Will I need a personal hotspot?

    Which refurbished iPhone should I buy to work with my refurbished iPad 3 wifi?  Will I need a personal hotspot?

    I'm having the same problem.  The iPad has never roamed particularly well between access points, but under IOS6 it doesn't seem to roam at all, it simply sticks with the access point it first connected with.
    I don't have a solution for you, unfortunately.

    and isnt ipad supposedly locked to at&t and verizon????

    They aren't locked in this edition for worldwide use. However I don't believe you can use an AT&T on Verizon and vice versa. If you have CDMA service you will need the Verizon iPad.

  • Which NI devices should I buy and how to start with?

    Greetings!
    I am an undergraduate who is trying to design a control system which can measure chemical solution conductivity as well as PH value; besides, based on those values, we need to control 4 valves to open and close so that acid, base, water,and salt from 4 tanks can flow into the main pipe.
    Question: Which NI device should I buy and start with? The devices have to have at least 4 input/output, do you have any suggestion, Thank you very much!!
    I am also new to LabVIEW, so any extra suggestion would be greatly appreciated!

    Thank you , we are considering purchasing NI USB-6008
    http://www.ni.com/products/usb-6008/
    Doest it work with the following PH sensor, one specification says that it has output voltage of Output 0-5 vdc, does NI USB-6008 accept it?
    Model A1004 pH Transmitter
    Warning
    Do not short the power connections. Wrong wiring of the signal and power wires will result in
    permanent damage to the unit instantly.
    Specs:
    Range 0-14pH
    Power: 12vdc 500ma nominal
    Output 0-5 vdc
    Material ABS
    Calibration trim pots
    Distance up to 50ft
    Model A1004 is a pH transmitter designed to be used with PLCs and microprocessors that accept
    analog input of 0-5vdc.
    Connect any general purpose pH sensor to the transmitter. Double junction sensor is preferred.
    Calibrate unit with 4 and 7 pH buffer solutions. Use zero trim pot to adjust 4pH and span trim pot to
    adjust 7pH..Fine tune adjustment is done with span trim pot.
    If you do not have a sensor , short the bnc connector ,this will simulate 7pH and observe output voltage
    of 2.5vdc.
    Din connector provides power and signal from one cable.
    Note.: When connecting signal and ground to the PLC input ,use .01uf capacitor across signal
    and ground to filter any noise issues.

  • Which macbook pro should I buy?? 13 or 15??

    I am planning to buy a macbook pro but I don't know which macbook pro I should buy.
    Games are not that important to me, however I play games such as call of duty, nba 2k, need for speed sometimes. Portability is important to me because it is compulsory for bringing laptops to school. I am confused on buying which macbook pro because the gpu of 13 is bad but 15 might be too big and heavy.
    So which macbook pro should I buy?

    Hi Lawrence,
    You've point out some of the important factors. For me, the choice would be easy. I'd gladly put up with a bit more bulk/weight to have a 15" display. ymmv

  • Which macbook pro should i buy if i use finalcut7?the i5 or i7?

    which macbook pro should i buy if i use finalcut7?the i5 or i7?

    Either one will do the job.  The more powerful the CPU, the faster it will perform.  I suggest that if the budget is tight, go for the i5, if not go for what the bank account will allow.
    It is nice to have a fast CPU, but they are not essential to the overwhelming applications that most people use, especially in a non-vocational context.  On this forum there are the 'speed freaks' who will tout the virtues of faster CPUs, yet most have never compared two MBPs side by side and experienced the differences of real world results.
    Ciao.

    Why should Apple fix the problem? Maybe you should consider NOT upgrading if an expensive piece of (obsolete) software you're running won't work with it...

  • My husband bought ipad 6mos ago in dubai for my daughter unluckily the ipad got snatched at redeem but almost damage with the dent and got no power, what should i do?please help

    You can try taking the iPad to an authorized service center in the Philippines:
    https://locate.apple.com/ph/en/
    but since the iPad sold in the UAE is specific to that country (the government there requires that Facetime be blocked), a Philippine service center may not be able to service your iPad. You can ask though. If they cannot help, then you would probably need to send the iPad back to the UAE for service.
    Regards.

    You'll have to get it serviced by Apple, you'll have to pay for the replacement device:
    Apple - Support - iPod - Repair pricing
    Apple - Support - Service Answer Center
    You can also search for a 3rd party repair company in the Internet.

    Hi, Chris.
    I did some research and found that your answers are not completely accurate.
    The T-mobile contract-free iPhone is already being sold, but it will take 7-10 business days to ship. And, as confirmed by Apple Specialists and also by people who have already bought it, it is factory unlocked.
    Yes, there is a contract free T-Mobile phone, but it is not "the" unlocked phone which Apple will begin to sell usually 2 months or so from the release date. So my answer to that question is accurate. I specifically identified the T-Mobile phone, and a search of the forum would yield some responses identifying its inability to work in some locations. And again, it has to be the T-Mobile phone sold at the Apple store, not T-Mobile.

    Regarding French LTE bands, they use 800, 1800 and 2600MHz, all of those supported by the iPhone 6.
    While that statement is accurate, see Lawrence's response regarding how it works.

    And finally, about the warranty, that is also something that should be checked country by country. Although Apple says its warranty won't cover products purchased abroad, some countries' laws require manufacturers to provided services under warranty to phones no matter where they were purchased. For example, since Apple has a branch in Brazil, justice here has repeatedly ruled in favor of customers  who needed service on iPhones purchased in other countries.
    While that may be an example, the overall warranty statement by Apple is that warrant is specific to the country of purchase for the reasons that Lawrence states. Certain devices cannot be found in certain countries. Should I travel to Brazil and have a problem with my phone, they would have a very difficult time replacing a locked AT&T device. They would not have that stock.

  • I live in the US and want to buy a MacBook Air with norwegian keyboard in the Apple Store. Is that possible?

    I live in the US and want to buy a MacBook Air with norwegian keyboard in the Apple Store. Is that possible?

    In earlier years you can go th an Apple Store, buy a Macbook Pro and ask for a replacement to a other type of keyboard. I do this 2-3 times in the last years for german keyboards. If you done this on the same day you bought the macbook, the replacement happened without charge anything. It was a great service.
    Yesterday i go back to the same store like before and both - the sales representative and the guys an the GeniusBar told me - that this is not offered by Apple anymore. Because the US Apple Online Store do not offer other Keyboards the US-based keyboards and the German Apple Online Store do not deliver to other countries the final conglusion from the Apple Stuff was:
    Flight to germany, but it over their.
    I see here in the Support community a lot of questions about norwegian, german and other kind of keyboards they want to buy in the US. Their is obviously a need for this. And from the logistic standpoint, it should be easy for Apple to offer that in the Online Stores itself.
    For me the conglusaion is: I stay with my old Macbook Pro and hope i need no replacement within the next years. To order it in germany, ship it to a friend, pay taxes twice (in germany and vur customers) plus shipment, make it to expensive (bottonline: 600-800$ more than buy it in the US) make no sense to me.
