Urgent! About to head to Apple store, which unlocked iphone 5 should I get?

Good luck getting anyone to sell it to you without an association to Sprint, Verizon, or ATT.

 

no you can not use att phone on verizon..


verizon phone you can use on att.. but you cant use atts LTE.

verizon is better for international use. More LTE bands.



god luck getting one. Ive read that apple isnt doing device only as a few weeks ago. Let us know how it goes.

 

Don't think you'll be able to get one today for the above reasons.

 

It'd be easier to get one device only from Walmart/Target/BB etc. Get the AT&T one if you're going to use T-Mobile for future LTE support

 

AT&T model has T Mobile's future LTE band 1700mhz.

 

Yes it works with AT&T 3G and T-Mobile 3G. So does the AT&T one, though, and that will net you LTE in the future.

 

Unlocked iphone 5

I have the same question. I need an unlocked iphone 5 to use it in Peru most of time and to use it in the US while I'm visiting my friends. Since Apple is not selling the iphone 5 as factory unlocked like they did with the 4S, what should I do?
I dont care about LTE because we use GSM/3G in my country.
Any recommendation and help to get an iphone in an apple store will be appreciated.
Thanks,

Antonio

 

IF you can get one. Verizon is the way to go.

 

Based on the original posting, my reccomendation is to NOT head out to buy a phone. You need to research many things:

ATT vs Verizon to start with.
Why unlocked vs contract?

And since you do not know which carrier, I am guessing you do not know what memory you need or want. Then there is the color.

 

Unlocked iphone 5

Im looking for the iPhone 5, 32GB on Black
I just one phone that I works with my local carrier. I can buy one to Movistar here but they want me to change the plan. I have 3GB and the new plan comes with 700MB.... suxxs

 

got to put my hands on a verizon one...

 

Apple stores will sell you a device only phone. I bought an AT&T phone only to be used on tmobiles future lte network. I did however have to line up for about 2hours. Good luck

 

Gee, I don't know,
On the one hand Verizon is more expensive,
On the other AT&T you can do voice data at the same time.
Guess you have to weigh the options for yourself
Let's see if
Enough introspection on your part will find you the answer.

 

Not unlocked, only without a contract. There is a difference. I talked to a Verizon associate yesterday in-store about the same thing.

 

i have a verizon one on tmobile and i get 3g
