Hi,

I'm thinking to buy a iPhone 11 for my girlfriend birthday. But she leaves in Portugal. Can she use a Portuguese sim card or not ?

iPad, iOS 10

Hello, I intend to buy iPhone 13 and to have my brother bring it to me in Europe. Will I be able to use my Montenegrin (European) sim card in iPhone that has been bought in the US? I have an option not to choose an American carrier but to connect on my own later. But even if I choose this option, would this guarantee that I will be able to use my Montenegrin card without a problem?

If you purchase this iPhone within the European Union, a Portuguese SIM from a supported carrier should be fine.
