Will US iPhone work with European Sim-Card

Hi!


I am currently living in the US for a year, and would like to buy a new iPhone. After the year, however, I will be moving back to Finland.


I was therefore wondering whether if I buy an iPhone here, it will work back home in Europe with my Finnish operator and simcard.


Thanks so much already in advance!

If it is an unlocked phone, it should work in other countries.


Unlocked phones are ONLY sold at Apple stores.


However, do note that warranty & repair service would ONLY be available here in the US. If you had an issue with the phone while back in Finland, you would not be able to have Apple repair it for you.


The best option is to buy a phone in the same country as where you plan to use it.
