Hi. Is the Esim chip in iPhone 14 pro (US variant) compatible with the carrier Grameenphone in Bangladesh? It does the support the already existing 13 pro, so I was wondering is there any reason why it would not work with the 14 pro. TIA
Here is Apple’s list of eSIM carrier support.
Find wireless carriers and worldwide service providers that offer eSIM service - Apple Support
While Bangladesh is not on the list, the carrier you mention may use other means of supporting eSIM. Best to check with them before making any decision.
And as @lobserghotst1 mentioned, if you buy the iPhone in the U.S. and take it Bangladesh you will not be able to get warranty service should something happen.

Thanks a lot for your reply. Just to clarify on one point, there is no difference in compatibility with carriers between the iPhone 13 pro and the 14 pro, right? Both of these devices should use the same esim chip inside, as no information on this not being the case has been provided.
I have no inside knowledge as to whether there is any change in the eSim chip between the two phones. This forum is user to user. We aren't Apple and we don't have access to such information.
One would hazard a guess that a 13 Pro which worked with a carrier's eSim service would also do well on an iPhone 14 Pro.
It is ALWAYS advisable to purchase your phone in the country you live and will use the phone. Even if the phone costs more in your country, any savings you realize up front will be gone and then some if you have an issue and have to physically bring the phone back to the US for service.
That would be a good question to ask Grameenphone. Do remember the US iPhone 14 Pro will NOT have a physical sim tray and an iPhone 14 Pro purchased in the US will have no warranty in Bangladesh.
