    It might work, however the warranty is only valid in the US, and it may not support the LTE bands in India. Also, you need to make sure the device is unlocked, not just without contract.

    Thank You Chris. Honestly don't care abt the LTE..but i hope its 3g and 2g compatible.

     

    Also kinda knew that the international warranty won't be valid outside the US.

    Your welcome. It should support 3G, but I cannot be sure. Also, the iPhone does not have, and never has had an international warranty. It is country specific, but it seems you understood that, just referred to it incorrectly.

    Then why are you buying an iPhone? Internet Access over LTE is kind of important on an iPhone.

     

    It will work over 3G, but I have to wonder why you would spend the money on an iPhone and not want it to be able to do everything it can do. And do it well. LTE access is important if you want good internet access when away from a Wifi network.

     

    In any case, The warranty won't be valid in India, and the iPhone needs to be unlocked if you want to use it with a carrier in India.

    Hi Phil thank you..LTE has launched in India less then 6 months ago..the tariff for the same is sky high and its accessible in less then 15 cities across India..Since i am always on the move it does not add any value to me and like i mentioned is bloody expensive..
