Buying new iPhone

Hi, I have question about buying new iPhone. Now I’m in Canada for couple of weeks and I want to buy a new iPhone, but I have worried about working it in Europe. Can someone explained me about differences when I will buy iPhone (CA) version and does it works in Europe as well? Thank you

Carrier-connected iPhone SE, iPhone 12, iPhone 13, iPhone 13 mini, iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Pro models will arrive ready to activate with eSIM and can connect to your cellular voice and data service without a physical SIM card.


If you completed the steps to authorize activation with AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, or Verizon when you purchased your new iPhone online, it will arrive ready to use. Just turn it on and follow the onscreen instructions to set it up and activate with the carrier. To activate with eSIM, you will need Wi-Fi for setup.


If you choose "Connect to a carrier later" when you buy your iPhone, you can activate with your service when you receive your device. If you're asked to transfer your SIM, follow the onscreen instructions to transfer service from your previous iPhone. To learn more, visit About eSIM on iPhone - Apple Support.




IMPORTANT RESTRICTION FOR iPHONE, iPAD, APPLE TV AND HOMEPOD SERVICE.


Apple may restrict warranty service for iPhone, iPad, Apple TV and HomePod to the country where Apple or its Authorized Distributors originally sold the device.
