Hi all,
I was considering buying an iPhone 13 from the Apple website and was wondering how do I select how much mobile data I would like? Mobile data is a key feature I need for going out and about texting people.
If I can't organise this on the Apple website itself, what would I do when I have the iPhone 13 itself? I must have mobile data.
Any help would be appreciated,
Thanks.

You cannot. Apple does not handle you cellular connection if you do specific types with your carrier. When you choose a specific carrier when you purchase from Apple, that is just to select the particular phone model. All of the carrier activation is handled by the carrier. Here in the US, most people that purchase carrier specific phones have existing contract, or are out of contract and have a monthly plans as opposed to pay as you go plans. If you have a pay as you go SIM, then you order a SIM free device when you purchase from Apple.

No, sorry. I mean as in data allowance. If I go out in public, I turn on mobile data (cellular data) which gives me 4G/5G signal. I was wondering how I would set that up if I bought a phone off of the Apple website.
Are you asking about storage space on your phone? If so, it is recommended to get the phone with the most memory that you can afford. Once purchased, you can’t add any more storage to your phone.
