Good day! i will buy an Ipad Air with wifi & cellular at malaysia because of the cheaper price compared here in the philippines and also im currently living in the philippines so im planning to use it here in the philippines. I heard a lot of topic that i need to do something like to openline the ipad so i can use it here in my country. Is this another purchasing or spending that might be occur here in the philippines if ever the ipad arrived in my country?

You will need to check with your Carrier about the availability of Data for an iPad purchased in Malaysia. iPad is often sold country specific, so you need to be absolutely certainly the one you purchase will work in the Phillippines.


Also, please be advised that Apple iPad and iPhone warranty is NOT international. You will need to go back to the country of purchase should you encounter any issues. This could clearly eliminate ANY savings you realize by buying it in Maylasia.


It is ALWAYS advisable to purchase iPad or iPhone in the country you live and will use it.


Buyer beware is a good motto.
