Im aware theyre the same model number but one has CDMA and the other GSM after, unless they do that do confuse us which you can see I am, lol. I went to the Verizon site and it said it was but maybe just LTE?
They both have CDMA and GSM as they are they same model and have the same hardware. When you are using a GSM provider like AT&T then you are using the GSM radio that is part of the hardware of the phone, and when you are using a CDMA provider like Verizon then you are using the CDMA radio that is also part of the hardware of the phone (in addition to LTE and different bands of it that are supported for different carriers).

If you are simply talking about coverage, then that's a carrier-specific thing that isn't really related to the phone. You'd need to check the carrier coverage maps and perhaps get feedback from others in the area about how the coverage is for a particular carrier.
 
It's the same model as the one used for Verizon, so from that point of view (assuming the phone is unlocked) there would be no difference as if you went with Verizon and had the Verizon model.

ok, gotcha. I don't see why they don't just say that. thanks
 
What can I say? works and haven't had any problems. C DM you was right potna:apple::)
 
The above is false.
Any unlocked iphone 6 models will work fine with verizon.
Wether its an AT&T, Tmobile or factory unlocked iphone 6 or 6 Plus.


Applejuice is correct. terhe is only 1 model and apple's website has false info. A1529 model has BOTH cdma and GSM antennas. Verizon will add the phone if subscribe. this is a new thing...Verizon says: as long as ATT unlocks the phone , the phone can be used on version.
