can i buy unlock iphone5 without contract

In the US, Apple has not yet announced the availability of unlocked iPhones.

In other countries where the sale of locked iPhones is prohibited, unlocked

iPhones are for sale. Check Apple website to see where iPhone 5 is currently

available and when it will be available in some other locations.

I believe unlocked iPhone 5 is available in Canada, but do not know that. Remember

iPhone warranty is only good in country of original purchase.

YES!

If you activate it right!

I bought an iPhone 5 AT&T off contract and did the same as I did last year with the iPhone 4s

Buy the phone.

DO NOT TURN ON!!

Take the AT&T card out

Put my UK GiffGaff Sim in (or use a US T Mobile card or something)

Connect to Mac with cable

Switch on.... and then..... (screen shot)!!
