Buy iPhone 13 in Mexico and use it later in Canada ?

I know thsi question has been asked before, but I intend to buy an iPhone 13 Pro in Mexico and later (in 2 years) keep using it in Canada. Aside the the warranty issue, is there technical difference between an iPhone sold in Mexico vs one sold in Canada ?? .... Will it still have 5G capability ?


At such a price tag, I do not intend to buy this to replace in 2 years...


Any potential issue ?

All iPhone models are world phones, so you can use them almost anywhere. Whether you are a GSM or CDMA network customer, you can roam internationally on GSM networks in over 200 countries or regions around the world. Availability of LTE data varies in some countries or regions and depends on carrier support for certain LTE radio frequencies. Contact your wireless carrier for more information regarding international roaming policies and rates.


5G availability will depend on the region where you are using the device.


I buy iPhones from the USA and use them in India. 5G is still not available here but the day 5G is launched I will be able to and avail myself the facility on my iPhone 12 Pro bought and brought from the USA.
