IPhone 5 Sprint version on Optus in Australia?

I'm thinking about buying this phone on ebay:

it is the sprint version of the iPhone 5. I was wondering, will it be possible to jailbreak it or something, and make it work in australia with an optus sim?

Making it to work in Australia will require you to unlock the device. Jailbreak will not help. Also I wouldn't personally spend $400 on a used iPhone. I would rather spend more money and get the device from here so I have no issues. Also if this phone doesn't work well then you can't return it. I would suggest that you always buy a smartphone from a trusted online retailer along with warranty. If you are buying second hand then you should always purchase it in person. Also ensure that he has restored the phone for you in person. So that you know it is all good.

  • Would anyone like to trade a brand new iphone 5c from sprint to a tmobile version? I bought an iphone 5c thinking it would work for tmobile but it dosent work at all.

  • Why is the iPhone 4s way more expensive in Australia? I'm thinking of buying an iPhone 4s from Australia but I don't want to pay $600 more than I have to. Why is the iPhone cheaper in America? And can I get one off the American apple store and use it in australia? Any help would be great!

  • Optus phone trade up? So I'm coming up to my 12 month phone trade up and want the IPhone X but I'd still like to keep my current phone and won't be able to afford to pay the rest of the phone there and then. How does it work do they add extra $50 or whatever onto my bill to pay out the phone or do they charge me the full amount I owe on the phone to the bill? Someone please explain Australian Optus users hopefully
