does anyone know the date when apple releases factory unlocked iphone 5s ?
iPhone 5s, iOS 7
think it varies from country to country
Already available in UK from Corporate Apple Stoes as with other European countries with Apple stores and where iP5S has been released
Which country are you ordering in?
I am not ordering anywhere
however it is only possible to order from a country online store in the country you reside
Available on USA. I ordered
No, the unlocked 5S is not available in the USA. A non-contract T-mobile phone is, but it is not stated to be unlocked.
Went into my store at The Westchester yesterday..plenty iPHONE 5S for sale...they verified that on the Apple site that the 64gb unlocked version is for sale only online not in stores..it says UNLOCKED I believe with a tmobile sim. I will be putting my ATT sim card in for USA use and my SA sim card for when i will be in SA for 6 months
iPhone 5s 64GB Silver (GSM) T-Mobile Unlocked
Direct copy and paste from the web site...
That's not what's available on the Apple Store online:
If you buy iPhone for T-Mobile, it will arrive with a nano-SIM card already installed that you can activate by visiting an Apple Retail Store or a T-Mobile store or by calling T-Mobile. When you travel internationally, you can use a nano-SIM card for iPhone 5s from a local GSM carrier. For details on LTE support, see www.apple.com/iphone/LTE.
if you press one the $849.00 link on the right of the page comes up the unlocked specs....i merely cut and pasted the exact wording...the att sim card will def work in this particular phone...which is what I have ordered and what i need
I hope so.
Best of luck
You ordered ? only TMobil avail and not factory unlocked as usually apple does , can you be more specific please ? thanks
It does, that phone is not locked hence the prices.
Thanks for the clarification. It was very clear on the order page for the 5c that the phone was unlocked. With the 5s it's very ambiguous. While it does state it's unlocked for international travel, it doesn't specifically state it's unlocked to domestic carriers (AT&T).
If you say it's unlocked to all carriers, domestic and international, I'll definitely take your word for it. As this is bound to come up in many threads, I again thank your for the clarification as I would not want to be giving out erroneous information.
Best,
