If I have wifi + cellular for verizon but I am considering switching to sprint, how will my iPad be affected?
I have the iPad with retina display, but have verizon wireless and I am no longer happy with their service but love my iPad. I can't return it or exchange it due do the fact it is past that time limit.
iPad 2
You can cancel your Verizon contract without affecting your iPad. You can then get a new plan with which ever carrier you want. They will supply a sim card for you to place inside the iPad. They'll probably be able to do this for you at the Carrier's store. Then you can start using their service instead of Verizon's.
Just be weary of a ny cancellation costs Verizon may decide to apply if your contract isnt over yet.

Your profile shows you have an iPad 2, however, your post says you have the iPad with retina display. The iPad with retina display is either an iPad 3 or 4. Which iPad model do you have? The iPad 2 carrier can't be changed.
Cheers, Tom 😉
Sure it can. The slot can take any sim card you want. Verizon uses CDMA for older iPads, but I believe the newer ones use GSM sim cards which can be changed out as they aren't actually carrier locked.
I have the newest one, but didn't see it in the drop down list. Thanks for your lep.
Thanks. I have had verizon for so long and didn't want to switch but my service with them hasn't been very reliable, so I wanted to have all areas covered before I make my decision.
Thank you, you were a lot of help.
I didn't realize that, I am happy that it is an easy thing. Thank you for you info.
