Hi,
I currently live in the US, but I'm in the process of transferring to Saudi in a month or so. I'm thinking about purchasing iPad 4 and was looking at the specs. Since my use would be in Saudi, after the first month, I'm confused with the models and would need some help.
AT&T version LTE is only Band 4 & 17
Verizon version LTE has Band 1, 3, 5, 13, 25
I know that one of the carriers in Saudi provides LTE at Band 3 (1800 MHz), but is primarily a GSM carrier. Now my question is, if I purchase the Verizon model, do I have to do anything to use the iPad in Saudi with a GSM carrier (unlocking, unbricking, etc)? If so, how much would it cost?
Regards,
Tegi
