If the phone is not locked to a carrier.

Wi-Fi for sure, imessage is free even internationally

  • Will My IPhone Work in South Africa? I have an I Phone 4 and I'm going to South Africa for two weeks. I want to text to my family and friends and occasionally make a call. My local AT&T store says my phone will work fine but they suggest a special program to permit more texting and calling at a cheaper rate but no internal modifications to the phone are needed. Want to make sure this is correct. Anyone traveled to SA with an IPhone?

  • Should I buy an Iphone 5s from America and use it outside of America? An Iphone s where I live costs around $600.In America it costs around $199 plus a $70 year contract so it seems more reasonable to order it online from America. If I order it from America what would I need to do and what should I know before ordering an Iphone from America and using it in another country? Besides unlocking the phone, what else do I need to do?
