Can I finance a new iPhone through Apple even though I have Spectrum?

can I finance a new iPhone through Apple even though I have spectrum which isn’t one of their carriers? I’m looking to walk into a store and just buy an iPhone since spectrum is all on back order for the one I want

Buying New Iphone Hello, I'm trying to eliminate some expenses and budget better. In doing so I was thinking of switching from T-Mobile to Mint Mobile. I have an outdated iphone that I'm looking to upgrade. I was planning on purchasing the iphone directly from apple. Instead of paying up front, I want to finance it via Apple Iphone Payments. However, when going through the process it makes you choose one of the 4 major carriers. Does this mean if I purchase the iphone I have to start a plan with one of them? Or does it come unlocked regardless and I can add it to my mint mobile plan?

Financing with Apple Card a new iPhone with “connect to any carrier later” option not available Hi, I got the Apple Card to be able to buy Apple products and finance them in 12-24 months without interest. Also, the only point to buy directly from Apple is not being locked into any carrier, I love my freedom. I was going to preorder the new IPhone 16 and, to my surprise, there is no option to use the Apple Card for financing the purchase while selecting “Connect to any carrier later”. If you finance it, you are forced to preselect one of the big four (Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile or Boost). I don’t want to be locked into any of these carriers, I want to use other carrier like Mint Mobile. How can order a phone, use my Apple Card to finance the purchase while choosing “connect to any carrier later”? Thanks

iPhone does anyone know of a provider a service carrier provider for cell phone that will finance a phone that you get from Apple. And does not really do a credit check I’ve never had to go through this before. I’ve had service with AT&T for 20 years and now I don’t even have a trade-in. I am looking for another service provider and that’s really the only one I’ve ever had so I don’t know how the others works does anyone have any helpful information so maybe I’ll know where to start thank you
