iPhone 6/Plus INTER-OPERABILITY

[MightyTrojan]

I am really confused with so many variants of iPhone 6/Plus.

In short my questions are:

1. Can you use iPhone 6/Plus from TMobile/Apple-sold TMobile on ATT network? Any hardware difference?

2. Can you use either ATT/TMobile specs iPhone 6/Plus on Verizon? I know one is GSM and another is CDMA. What about vice versa?

3. Are all the new iPhone 6/Plus' have EXACT same hardware inside except software difference?

4. Can I purchase Verizon iPhone 6/Plus with full price at Apple Store to use on ATT?

Thanks!!!

I wasn't really intentional because I saw it somewhere and people posted it like that.

1. Can you use iPhone 6/Plus from TMobile/Apple-sold TMobile on ATT network? Any hardware difference?

There's no hardware difference. Whether or not the T-Mobile iPhone 6/Plus is unlocked is still hotly debated, but past history indicates that it shouldn't be, and should work fine on AT&T.

2. Can you use either ATT/TMobile specs iPhone 6/Plus on Verizon?

No, you cannot.

I know one is GSM and another is CDMA. What about vice versa?

Vice-versa will work fine.

3. Are all the new iPhone 6/Plus' have EXACT same hardware inside except software difference?

No. There are 4 different, subtle hardware revisions for each iPhone 6/Plus. A listing of which model works best for which carrier can be found here:

The part you need to be concerned with: the Verizon and Sprint versions have CDMA, the T-Mobile/AT&T versions don't.

It MIGHT be that the hardware is the same but baseband software is what makes the difference, but I wouldn't depend on that.

4. Can I purchase Verizon iPhone 6/Plus with full price at Apple Store to use on ATT?

If they'll sell it to you, yes.
