Does an unlocked iPhone 5 work anywhere in the world?

My parents gone travelling around the world and my dad called and asked me if i wanted an iPhone 5. I obviously said yes but he said his in Hong Kong at the moment and i was wondering if Hong Kong sells unlocked iPhone 5 and would it work with any sim card here in Australia.

I think they will when it is available. The iPhone 5 is not available in Hong Kong as of now but it is available unlocked now in Australia.

To answer the question, yes unlocked iPhones (or any phone for that matter) would work with any GSM carrier's SIM cards around the world.

Yes, it should work on any GSM network.

if you can get your hands on an AT&T iphone 5 and don't want to wait, you can unlock it easily. Almost a factory unlock without the factory… No software or jailbreaking involved. Go here: http://gsmunlocklabs.com/samsung-unlock-code/

Yes it will.

If the phone is unlocked, you can use with any GSM network worldwide. If its unlocked, it speaks for itself.
Yes.
Be sure that its not a trick though.

Best of luck.

  • Will an unlocked iphone work in all the countries in the world? Usually when people list 'unlocked' on an iPhone site they mean unlocked for United States countries. If I buy an unlocked iPhone abroad in Europe (or from a European person selling through amazon or ebay), will it still work in the United States on a local carrier?
  • Will an unlocked iphone 4S work for tmobile if it isn't factory unlocked? I want to get an iPhone 4S and my friend has the iPhone 4 unlocked but i'm worried that if i get it non-factory unlocked it won't work. My uncle tried to do it a couple of months ago and apple said that if it was factory unlocked every time the phone shut off or died it would reset. I was just wondering if the same thing would happen if it wasn't factory unlocked? So if I get it unlocked everytime it will shut off it will reset? That is what i'm worried about.
