Will an iPhone 17 Pro Max bought in the UAE be compatible in Egypt?

Hey, I’m wondering if getting an iPhone 17 Pro Max from the UAE would work for me in Egypt. Also, because it only support eSIMs?

Does your carrier in Egypt support eSim? It likely will work in Egypt, but you should check with your carrier. The bigger issue you'll have is the phone won't have warranty in Egypt. iPhone warranty is typically limited to the country of purchase. It's ALWAYS best to buy your iPhone in the country you live and will use it.
