Unlocked US iPhone 6 compatibility with Vodafone UK?

[FreddieBrodermann]

Good evening,

I spend my time between the US and UK. I am hoping to buy an iPhone 6 from the US (unlocked on T-Mobile) and was wanting to enquire to to whether it will work with my Vodafone UK SIM card when I am back in the UK?

With kind regards

Freddie

If it's truly unlocked then the answer is yes. But I believe the US is the same as it is here - only Apple can sell unlocked phones. Getting a sim free phone from a network is not the same as unlocked.

You should also be aware that the iPhone warranty is not international but country specific. If you buy it in the US Apple in the Uk would not be obliged to repair it.

T-mobile in the USA will sell you an unlocked phone, the catch is you need to have and maintain an account with them.

As jeffkin has said, the only p[lace to buy an unlocked phone in the states  is an Apple store.
